Full Circle is a warm and welcoming studio space. The students and instructors are all very nice. I've taken class and I've done a private studio rental and doing both were very easy to do. The studio offers everything you would need for class or rental (yoga mats/blocks, towels, bands, etc). All you need to do is show up! - Monique Dupree
