"Erin McNamara's yoga classes are not your average yoga class.  First, there's the music.  It's actual music, carefully curated to set the tone of each class.  Don't misunderstand-I love me some Ommmmm chanting.  Erin's music, however, took my practice to a completely different (better) place. Rather than being distracting, it allowed me to shut down the mind chatter and let my body take over. "ME" became quiet.   The music is just the beginning, however.  Erin's classes are demanding and exacting, yet it is always clear that our bodies are what we need to tune into.  There is no sense of "doing it wrong", or failure if I have to take a break sometimes.  There is always a modification given for those that need/want it.  The emphasis is on each individual student, without competition or an attitude of boot camp, as I have found in so, practices.  This is a yoga practice I can follow and stick with."

"Dave and Erin are passionate, involved community members with a fervor for yoga, wellness and adventure.  It's been a privilege to study yoga alongside Erin and watch UP come together from a mere idea into the glorious space it now occupies.  I look forward to everything these two and the rest of their team will bring to this burgeoning region of our great community."

"Erin is amazing. As a climber I wanted yoga that would both challenge and strengthen me and Erin's practice did just that. Hands down the absolute best yoga classes I've ever experienced, in fact I won't go anywhere else after practicing with her. I left every single class feeling refreshed, stronger, and more in tune with my body and surroundings, and I was never once bored, which had been a problem for me in classes with other teachers. Erin even helped me work through debilitating sciatica (when even my doctor had no solutions) and injuries as they came up, which as anyone active knows, is bound to happen from time to time. She offers so much more than just a one off yoga class. Her practice is restorative, engaging, conditioning, and healing. I am grateful to have been exposed to yoga in such a transformative way. Thank you so much Erin and UP!!!"
