My name is Caros Fodor and I am a professional fighter for the Strikeforce organization. I started training at Lakeview yoga 6 wks before my last fight. During that time the instructors gave me the flexibility and mental focus I needed to go into my fight healthy and focused. Because of that I was able to come out with a win. I want to recommend Lakeview yoga to all people. If they are just trying to get into shape or looking to find balance in their life. Lakeview yoga and the instructors are the best I've seen and I personally want to thank them.

"I was a little intimidated at my first class at Lakeview Yoga. While I had done yoga, I had never done "Hot" yoga and didn't know how well I would handle the heat. Vidal welcomed me to my first class that evening with open arms, as I have seen him do to so many others since. I completed that class and thought I was really onto something. I felt great! Years ago, I had an ATV accident that resulted in a fracture and required surgery to fuse my entire lumbar spine. Because of this, I have very limited low back movement. I had tried many conventional treatments in the last twenty years but nothing really helped. Yoga with Vidal has certainly been one of the best treatments I have done for myself. I let Vidal know my medical history at my first class and through his gentle guidance, I have been able to do many poses that I never thought I could. The heat along with the careful stretching and Vidal's supportive nature has been the most helpful thing I have done for my back and overall health. Yoga with Vidal will leave you refreshed, cared for, soaked, relaxed, alive, revitalized, and pumped. Lakeview Yoga with Vidal is one who's got your back!"

"At Lakeview, I find a sweet balance of being challenged yet I can still go at my own pace. I’m learning to be still and better listen to my body. It’s become a sacred place where I can always find my peace on my mat. When I leave, my mind is calm and my muscles feel amazing!

Vidal is truly a gifted teacher who exudes peace, wisdom; he is genuine and inspiring. He is so wonderfully intentional about knowing each person that walks in the door and is passionate about seeing all of us reach our goals and brightest potential. I wouldn't go anywhere else!"

""You have the whole rest of your life to do yoga," Vidal Bitton, studio owner says, "ease back." With five black belts, he is past ego and working from love and service. "Every day your body is different," he reminds us, and as instructor Joyce says, "It's yoga practice, not yoga perfect." So bring the body you woke up in this morning and join us for the heat and stretch on the mat that signals the body to renew itself, the mind to relax and the face to smile.

"Honestly I was nervous going to LakeView Yoga because I'm a complete novice and I worried more experienced people would scoff at my yoga attemps. But this studio is different than others I've gone to! The silence in the yoga room, instead of being intimidating and somewhat judgemental, is actually... meditation; it's so peaceful and calm. The air of arrogance I've experienced elsewhere is MIA. Vidal, the instructor, is in such good humor and while helping us with our postures, asks us to laugh off our mistakes. Oh, and the best part is the sunrise! Sun rises over the lake and the room slowly lights up; it's really energizing and inspiring! I love this place; Vidal, the students, the wholesome treats for sale, the vibe, all of it. Thank you so much.

"I have had neck and back issues for my whole adult life and have spent a good amount of time and money on chiropractic care. I started attending classes at Lakeview Yoga 6 weeks ago. Since then I have had no back or neck pain, and have range of motion in my neck that I haven't had since I was a kid. My balance, strength, flexibility, and energy level have all noticeably improved. Thank you Vidal and team!"

"I drive past five different yoga studios to take classes at Lakeview Yoga. Lakeview Yoga is unique in that there is a true understanding of meditation, breathing and healing that is passed through to the students. ALL students are given special attention so that they may gain benefits from yoga. The quality of
instruction is evident in the enthusiastic dedication of numerous students of all ages, as well as the number of medical professionals that attend class. Vidal & Lakeview Yoga have a wonderful group of teachers and students that create this positive synergy of health and well being that rubs off on everyone that comes in the door. In the end, there is nothing better than practicing deep breathing and meditation
while watching the sun slowly set over the lake. This makes me very happy."

"Leave your mind at the door and check into Lakeview yoga. A beautiful Lake Washington view, and a rich atmosphere bring a variety of people from all walks of life together for 90 minutes of mindfulness and heat. Vidal has a vast knowledge of martial arts, and brings a gentle teaching style to the yoga experience. He is focused yet relaxed. His warm approach and genuine love for this practice continues to inspire and motivate, giving students a challenge whether its the first time or the 200th. Thank you, Vidal!"

"For someone who wants a good workout without the strain on your joints, Power Yoga is a great option. Coming from a background in gymnastics, I had the opinion that yoga was just mild stretching and lacked cardio - I was wrong. Nothing is more challenging, rewarding and relaxing than a session of yoga with Vidal. His passion is clear and radiates into each of his students. Lakeview Yoga is a beautiful studio where you can literally melt into your mat and leave your troubles behind. You will leave each class feeling rejuvenated and refreshed. Thank you, Vidal!"
