testimonials
This is our first awesome retreat. We are going to ask you for a leap of faith but just for reassurance here is what our clients say of their experience with the studio
Julia, 32
values her time
based in London, UK
I have a very demanding corporate job which requires spending a lot of time in front of my laptop. This is the cause of me feeling stiff and tense pretty much all the time.

Attending Solid Water allows me to have a much-needed break for my body without wasting extra time on my commute. They make me feel stronger, without wearing me out, healthier, more flexible, and also more womanly.
Stephan, 26
recovered from an injury
based in London, UK
Solid Water helped me greatly with my recovery from a slipped disk injury I sustained.

Mobility classes with Anna were ideal for guiding me through my recovery: the exercises helped strengthen my back and prevent further injury, and the exercises were conducted in a safe way. I GREATLY recommend Solid Water's classes to anyone looking for a safe and personal environment!
Lisa, 34
likes personal approach
based in Alicante, Spain
Solid Water turned my view of online classes upside down. The level of care, attentiveness and bespoke approach are unprecedented.

I had been doing yoga for many years but at some point, unfortunately, I stopped seeing progress. After just a few classes at Solid Water, I saw an immediate improvement in my flexibility!
Irina, 43
appreciates calm gentle classes
based in Geneva, Switzerland
The class at Solid Water began with a careful survey of my physical condition, then instructor Anna smoothly moved on to exercises.

She doesn’t rush, gives time to get into a pose, feel it and get out of it gently - this is important for me since I don’t work out on a regular basis.
Anastasia, 26
raised awareness of her body
based in London, UK
It is about building connection between the body and the spirit.

The instructor isn’t only giving me instructions on how to properly complete an exercise, but also explains how the energy flows through the body during that particular posture. This raises awareness of your body.
