Quest For Balance

As others have noted, Q4B is a first-​rate yoga studio with exceptionally friendly and encouraging teachers. I have several male friends who have felt awkward or self-​conscious at other studios that cater mostly to women. I’ve encouraged them to try this warm and friendly place as a welcome alternative that makes every visitor feel at home.
One more thing: Hoosier winters are COLD and their beautiful wooden floor is HEATED. :-)

I still pinch myself that we have this yoga studio in our small rural Indiana community. As someone who has practiced yoga for nine years and has taken classes across the country, I can tell you Quest for Balance supports serious yoga practitioners, but it is also committed to yoga for every-​body. Classes range from a Vinyasa flow that will raise your heart rate to yin yoga and curvy yoga. The teachers are committed to eschewing judgment, cueing variations and adaptations, and reminding yoginis that this is your practice.
There is no my-​zen-​is-​better-​than-​your zen stuffiness about the place. In terms of practicalities, the studio has mats and props available and does not charge a mat rental fee. When you attend classes, you feel you are part of a community Jeanne and Wayne are attempting to build and nurture. They offer hot tea, comfortable floor pillows, and a piece of chocolate if you’d like to hang out after class. The property surrounding the studio is filled with flower and vegetable beds, and teachers often urge you to take home free fresh vegetables. Jeanne has volunteered her time to teach yoga to local preschool children and at-​risk teens. Finally, all teachers are very open to client requests and desires for classes; several times the owners have added classes at different times of day and/​or focusing on a different style of yoga to accommodate a request or to see if the class can draw wide enough participation to sustain it.

A few years ago when my beloved yoga instructor moved away, I was desolate.
Fortunately, Quest for Balance opened and I found a wonderful, caring, supportive atmosphere that always improves my mental health.
I recommend them to all I meet. Beautiful and welcoming facility, caring staff, and just that certain something that we look for when we need our yoga.
Please don’t hesitate to try them out.

When I first moved to Crawfordsville in 2013 I was thrilled to find a yoga studio in town. The first year I was here I went all the time. I worked with one teacher in Functional Movement classes who helped me strengthen my glutes and psoas so as ;) to eliminate some pretty painful sciatica. I went to morning yoga regularly for awhile and it was a great way to get the day started. I especially like the hot yoga and power yoga classes. I was much busier and focusing more on my running my second year here, but I still love to go out to the studio when I can. They continue to rotate classes so there are always some entry level classes and other all level courses. They also have workshops with restorative yoga. The studio itself is a beautiful place, both quiet and welcoming. When I go I often run the three miles from downtown Crawfordsville out to the studio as my warm-​up — fortunately, they always have water for me when I arrive.

This place is a gem, a true find in wee Crawfordsville. It’s worth the (Crawfordsville-​scale) drive out past the WalMart to step into what Jeanne & Wayne have set up as a little sanctuary of quiet and healing. The hot yoga in particular offers an excellent workout-​with-​meditation. *All* of the sessions I’ve attended there have been good, and all of the teachers gracious and patient, adaptable to all levels, helpful, kind. HIGHLY recommended for the good of both mind and body.

I can find my Zen at this yoga studio. The instructors are well trained and sensitive to the needs of every person regardless of age, gender, or shape. Jeanne seeks to keep things interesting by offering classes of a wide variety with special workshops from time to time. The atmosphere is warm and welcoming. I especially love the heated floors. I guarantee that you will feel welcome at the studio. This is a no judgement zone

The Monday/​Wednesday 6am Sunrise Yoga is a must-​attend if you like a slow flow class. Great pace for beginners and a perfect wake-​up for your day. Jeanne is a patient, mindful instructor.

Quest For Balance has everything anyone could ever want from a yoga experience. The instructors are educated and experienced and they allow you to feel comfortable and confident regardless of your yoga level. They offer a wide range of classes at various times to fit your schedule. The building itself is humble yet well suited with necessary accessories. The floor is heated (amazing in the winter!!), there are beautiful French doors which look out to a field (how peaceful!), and it is very clean. The owners are truly invested in everyone who walks through the door. I have loved every class I’ve attended and only wish my schedule was more open to allow me to try more!

For a while now, I’ve meant to come back and update my review and give QFB 5 stars. I haven’t done so till now because of all the awesome yoga classes I’ve been attending! Yoga practitioners, head on over to this gorgeous studio for a great yoga experience. They offer an expanded variety of classes, including vinyasa flow, yin, restorative, and more. There are also a number of specialty workshops for beginners, and specialty workshop topics as well.
Another thing I really appreciate is how the owners, Jeanne and Wayne, have worked so hard to make this a welcoming community space for all kinds of yoga. They often offer herbal teas on Saturday after the morning class in a beautifully appointed main room, and it’s so nice to sit there and relax after a yoga practice. There are yoga and alternative medicine books and magazines to peruse, and locally made crafts and yoga props for sale as well. I couldn’t ask for a nicer studio!
