An amazing studio that is very welcoming, offering a variety of classes. Mary Ellen Taylor is an incredible instructor and an expert in her field as she teaches a range of yoga and barre/yoga classes. I’ve taken classes from many instructors and always am blown away by her knowledge. She is incredibly informative of connecting the mind and body and has helped heal both back and neck injuries I have dealt with for many years. The classes meet you wherever you are in your wellness journey and is a studio of kindness, acceptance and laughter. No two classes are the same. The studio is a very friendly community and Mary Ellen is the heartbeat of it.

I discovered the best yoga studio yesterday! Really lovely people, seasoned instructor, and the industrial, exposed brick physical space (5th Avenue Station) is gorgeous. It’s a NFP, so you can feel great about purchasing their very affordable classes while giving back locally. Can’t wait to go back for another Barre Yoga class!

Wow! I’m really feeling the love this morning.
I got to take Mary Ellen’s, virtual Barre Yoga yesterday. Living in MI for the summer since mid-May has been wonderful with one exception, NO Grow Well Fitness classes! And my body has felt it. Mary Ellen doesn’t just work your entire body but encourages you while you are doing it. Every class always makes me feel energized and fulfilled.
Great class Mary Ellen, as always.
Also, loved working out with my friends from afar. Can’t wait to do it again next week.

All of the teachers and classes as AMAZING. The space is clean and inviting. The props and mats are provided, and are clean and well kept. The parking is easy to find (which is impressive in such a busy area).

The classes are thoughtfully taught, inclusive, and have so much spirit and personality. I cannot say enough great things about this studio!

This studio is amazing & Mary Ellen is the best instructor! I have only done yoga one time before and her class challenged me, but she cheered me on the entire time.

After trying a barre and barre / yoga class at Grow Well Yoga + Barre + Fitness, I find myself wanting to come back for more. The classes and instructors are very inclusive of all fitness levels, and make each person in the room feel welcome. As someone who routinely attends high intensity cardio and strength classes, the class offerings at Grow Well are a great complement to other fitness routines. Mary Ellen is highly knowledgeable, engaging, and has an all around calming presence about her. I felt challenged, but also appreciated the plethora of options/modifications provided to fit my specific needs. Students are nurtured and encouraged to be present in the moment and reminded to take note of how their bodies are feeling as a guide for their practice for the day, and I truly enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend to anyone who is an experienced student or someone looking to diversify their fitness routine and be challenged in new ways!!

I had the pleasure to experience Mary Yoga class via a private event hosted by one of my girlfriend. The class was amazing covering all the yoga postures and was well instructed. The studio was super clean and no need to carry your own yoga mat as studio has great quality mats including all the props.

I would highly recommend this place and is a MUST TRY if you’re into yoga, barre or pilates or even just a beginner.

Mare is an exceptional instructor and provides well intentioned assistance as well as much praise during the practice. The Studio offers a wide assortment of classes/times/instructors as well as class pass options. Definitely a superior atmosphere and I highly recommend!

This is a special place. Rarely does a business check all the boxes but Grow Well Yoga Studio does for me. The teachers are caring, knowledgeable, and supportive. You are encouraged to listen to your body and make the practice your own. I imagine beginners would feel very comfortable here. The space is beautiful and music adds a special touch. In addition to their regular schedule, they offer workshops as well. It’s very easy to sign up for a class using the app. Parking is surprisingly plentiful and easy, given its convenient downtown Naperville location. And the nonprofit business model sets the culture overall. I have tried several classes and am grateful to have found this studio.

Took a yoga + barre class with Mary Ellen yesterday and have been feeling so good since then. Mary Ellen guided our class through yoga poses and barre strengthening and was mindful to cue us so that each student was able to maximize the benefits of the class, according to their own bodies. The studio is located near the train station, with parking nearby. I encourage everyone to check out Grow Well Yoga!

Grow Well Yoga Barre and Fitness is by far the greatest studio I have ever attended. There is a wide variety of students and the classes are challenging, yet pulsed to the energy in the room! This is not a typical chain yoga studio. The environment is incredible, the room is gorgeous and there is a warm, family like vibe! I love Grow Well! Mary Ellen Taylor and her teachers are all absolutely knowledgeable and deeply committed to a perfect experience in every class! We have fun, the teachers are entertaining and funny! The yoga/barre blend classes are unique and challenging! Anyone will enjoy this studio, novice through athletic abilities are all going to equally enjoy each class. The Barre classes are a great workout and will leave anyone feeling like they have had an intense, yet doable hour of exercise…
A million stars for Grow Well Yoga Barre and Fitness!!! ~ Jim Hurley

They have the most amazing instructors for a variety of classes who make everyone feel comfortable for whatever skill level they are at. This is a judgement free studio devoted to helping everyone achieve their own personal journeys! I love the yoga barre classes which helps me strengthen my body while staying connected with the mind.

I can tell I have grown a lot since I’ve started taking classes here. I strongly encourage trying out a class here it is truly a special and inspiring experience!!

I’ve been coming to Grow Well Yoga Barre & Fitness studio since March. A friend asked me to join her. As someone who has little to no yoga experience I was unsure if I could even do it. I knew I wanted to try. First class was Restorative Yoga - not intimidating, friendly people in class (not overwhelmingly large, but no one cares what you’re doing)& instructors are very helpful. Key things I’ve learned and are emphasized in every class is to listen to what I can do today. If I want to push myself I can, but if a pose isn’t working and I need to do something else I do. There’s no pressure to follow everyone else. The instructor will give you a way to modify the stretch or pose if you don’t know how, and they will correct your form or posture accordingly as class is going on. Gently, without any judgement. I am very happy I was introduced to this studio and will encourage others to come and be fit in mind & body here as well. 🥰

I have been consistently attending both the barre and yoga classes here for about two months now and I can honestly say that my life has changed for the better. I have more energy and I feel a lot better both physically and mentally. My strength, mobility, and flexibility has improved SO much. I have never been a huge fan of working out/going to the gym, but now I can’t imagine a day without doing yoga or barre! The instructors are so welcoming, patient and caring. It truly is an amazing studio!

This yoga studio is truly different! The peaceful serenity pours out of every corner of this space. Over the years I have taken studio yoga classes and end up going back to my DVD at home. Not this time! I learned of the yoga studio through Mare, my yoga therapist, who opened the studio in November. My favorite classes are Barre-Yoga, Hatha yoga, and Restorative Yoga. Not only have I ditched the yoga DVD, but what I have learned in class has enhanced my practice at home. I applaud Grow Wellness Group and Mare for having the insight to bring yoga therapy and a yoga studio to their mental health group! Brilliant!

After years of being out of practice, I again want to make this a part of my wellness and self care routine. I recently attended the Restorative class, and I love how this was such a peaceful reintroduction; from the instructor truly encouraging each student to listen to their own bodies and not pushing it to the limit to the focus on the connection and synchronization between mind and body, Grow Well Yoga and it’s instructors definitely have that personal and nonjudgmental touch to welcome all to this practice!
