Yoga Experience - Chicago, Illinois

Tracy was our instructor for a private bachelorette party looking to take an aerial yoga class. She was great about prompt communication and quite patient when I had a deposit check get lost in the mail. Prices were absolutely reasonable and became even more so the larger with the more people you wanted to add.

On the day of the class, Tracy was obviously a seasoned instructor. She explained things visually and verbally, aiding members of our party that may have needed more detailed instructions or help to achieve certain movements. I really appreciated the intimate studio size, and her one on one attention. The only thing even remotely close to a gripe I have is that I couldn't do some of the movements due to limited mobility range on one of my knees. This is an issue with me though, and not at all the fault of Tracy and Yoga Experience.

Overall I'd attend classes here again and completely recommend them for anyone looking for small, intimate, private classes.

I recently attended a beginner's session at Yoga Experience. I had not been to a instructor led yoga session for a few years so I was a little rusty. Yet, Tracy was welcoming and a great instructor. She quietly moved about the room to give help to any student that needed slight adjustments. She was also very good at letting us less experienced students do a modified position if the final stage was beyond our comfort. The session was a little over an hour and I left feeling relaxed and happy with my work. I plan on returning!

I have been going to Yoga Experience over three years. I can't say enough good things about the studio and Tracy. The atmosphere is warm and everyone who attends class is very welcoming and friendly. The classes I regularly attend are restorative yoga and open aerial yoga. Tracy always asks if there is anything we want to work on at the start of class and each week class is different. I always feel relaxed and refreshed after class. I would definitely recommend yoga experience.

I found Yoga Experience in 2020 and immediately fell in love with the practice and instructor, Tracy. She's kind, considerate, and knows her stuff! I have a lower back injury and she's taught me ways to work with my body, verses against it. Learning yoga from Tracy has given me a new level of appreciate for the practice and I strive to go 2x week. It truly makes a difference in how I feel physically, as well as mentally.

Yoga Experience provides a warm, welcoming atmosphere for students at every level, and Tracy Von Kaenel is a fantastic teacher. The classes are small, and Tracy provides individual guidance as needed. Her classes are so varied that you could go five times a week for a year and never have the same sequence twice. She's skilled, insightful, generous, and highly intuitive when it comes to helping students deepen their yoga practices and grow as human beings.

I love Yoga Experience. I have been going to Tracy's classes for about 15 years and am addicted. No two classes are alike and she encourages you to go at your own pace and level while making necessary adjustments as needed. The studio space just moved to another level of the building, and it is an even more perfect setting. I only wish I could go more!

I've been attending Beginner Yoga and Open Level Yoga with Tracy for over a year now. She is a fantastic instructor. In addition to being extremely kind and clear, she is focused on creating the best class for the students and will correct students' forms to ensure everyone is getting the best exercise and experience.

I especially appreciate how different every class is from week to week. She creates a different schedule for every single session, which ensures all of my muscles are getting some much-needed exercise. I very much do not like exercise, but this setup immensely helps me stay on track by not creating a dull routine.

I've been regularly attending Tracy's classes for over a year, despite never having a subscription to a gym or sticking to any other form of exercise. That is my biggest endorsement--she has helped get me into regular exercise.

Tracy's warm and inviting studio is a place for a great physical workout! Beyond that, and perhaps equally important, Tracy's kind interaction with her students, her readings and chantings [before and after sessions], and her free Saturday meditation classes, provide a deeply spiritual experience for all. Tracy Von Kraenel has created a yoga studio with classes for all levels you won't want to pass up! Check it out: Yoga Experience!!
