Truly lovely - This was my first Sol Seek class and I was so blow away. I have been fortunate to visit many yoga studios in my life and have been interested in trying Sol Seek for some time. Immediately, the experience was so positive. I called to sign up prior and was given an immediate call back and helped quickly to get set up with my first class. Upon arrival, everyone was kind, welcoming, and helpful. The studio was such a beautiful, calming, spacious atmosphere. Jill taught the most enchanting, well curated, warm-hearted class. I felt safe, yet challenged, warm and comforted. Jill is so bright and her energy is infectious. It was an honor to practice at Sol Seek and I very much look forward to coming back.
This is my favorite yoga studio in town. I can't recommend it more. The environment is clean, beautiful and inviting. The staff makes you feel so welcome, and relaxed and the teachers are knowledgeable and work hard to make their classes fun, informative and creative.
My main reason for writing this review is to highlight an incredible teacher: Lucy Whillhite. I've been attending her 'Burn' class for over 8 months and it's my favorite class I've ever taken...and I've practiced yoga and taken workout classes for over 6 years.
Her approach is warm, enthusiastic and guides you in a way that makes you feel motivated, and put at ease. Her music choice is as baddass as her teaching. I've taken many classes that have trance yogic beats that can put me to sleep, and her playlists always make me smile. If you take a class at Sol Seek, be sure to take one of Lucy's classes, you'll be happy you did!
My experience at Sol Seek was unlike any other yoga studio I've been to. To be perfectly honest, I don't consider myself a "yoga girl" -- I almost exclusively do yoga via YouTube videos that I can watch and move along to from the comfort of my home. Yoga studios have always felt intimidating to me — but Sol Seek was completely different.
I felt so welcomed by the team, others who took the class, and the instructor, Amelia. The space itself is so warm and inviting, and I felt comfortable to practice at my own pace. I've never felt so comfortable in a yoga class before, and I'm grateful to the Sol Seek team and all the hard work they've clearly put in to make the vibes impeccable (complete with soft paint colors and plants all around). Everyone was so kind. I can genuinely say this was my favorite studio I've ever been to - and I can't wait to come back the next time I'm in Santa Barbara!
