My partner and I started with Maxine about 8+ years ago and have been totally delighted with her classes and the entire Dahn system Ilchi Lee started that she brings to us. I love that it is based on the ancient (over 5,000 years) Tao teachings and that his focus on finding/embracing our "true self" nature is powerful in recovering from our "programming". He also has added many more relevant current ways to expand upon that knowledge.
I've been a student of several marital arts in years past and love to dive deep into many "spiritual" teachings... I see how they complement my understanding of who I really am and how to be more aware of "what works" to belay the current chaos in the world.
Maxine's yoga classes offer amazing variety with a comprehensive focus each day on specific "techniques" to bring our body, mind, and spirit to new levels of well being. I'm in my mid-70's and am in fantastic health and tell everyone: "I couldn't do my physically demanding handyman tasks without the benefits these classes provide". My 5-star high review here is only limited because the rating scale didn't go to a full "10"π

The Korean style yoga is energizing and grounding. It helps me stretch and get my much-needed breath work, too. If youβre doing any kind of training, itβs a great way to support your fitness. I always feel better after a class. You will too!

My experience with Maxine at Body and Brain in Golden has been truly outstanding. With her patience, expertise and knowledge - my body has become stronger, calmer and more balanced. She is one of the most positive people I've ever met. I always leave the center feeling very positive myself. I would say if you're looking for a healthier lifestyle, this would be an excellent place to start.

Iβve practiced yoga with Body and Brain instructors for over 10 years. Maxine at the Golden location is a favorite! Every class is a bit different and focuses on various muscle groups. And I love being able to participate online. Highly recommend her.

Maxine is wonderful. She provides a great stretching workout with sensitivity to physical challenges. The workout is followed by meditation. The community at her studio is friendly and supportive too. This has kept me flexible.

Maxine has been an amazing Tai Chi and Yoga instructor to our family. We started taking private lessons about four years ago, since then we have learned great exercises to keep us active and our body strong, learned to breath and learned to have a positive and calm mind. Our older son started lessons at seven years old and Maxine always made it interesting to him, she used wooden swords and drums. If you are looking for a great exercise and fun time, I think you will enjoy Maxine's great energy. She is a special person to our family!

This will always be a spiritual home for me. If you are looking for a supportive community, this is the one. I have so much gratitude for the healing, support, and opening I have found in this space not only physically but emotionally and spiritually as well. No matter who you are and what you are looking for, the space Maxine has fostered will support you in your fullest expression of moving to a healthier and happier you!

I began taking Tai Chi classes a couple of months ago and I LOVE it. Maxine is an amazing instructor offering clear, detailed instructions with the added benefit of her knowledge of the meaning behind each movement and the overall effects on the body. It has been challenging with the COVID restrictions but Maxine follows guidelines to the letter while being totally supportive of her students. I look forward to a time when we can fill the studio with students but, for now, the small face to face classes work fine with the added feature of attending class by Zoom. I love these classes and could not recommend it more highly.

I've done yoga around the world; Maxine with Golden Body & Brain is still
the best: 7am, three times a week going on 7 years on my way to age 100!
I've learned things about the human body (including my own) that we were
never taught in medical school - and - with less stress, more fun, fitness &
flexibility!
Maxine is always the punctual, cheerful, attentive role model - and - she is
resilient: early on in the pandemic she quickly followed the science guidelines
for masks, safe distancing &/or remote classes (Zoom).
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!!

We dropped in on an afternoon, Tai Chi first-timers and curious about what itβs all about and Maxine gave us a beautiful history, explained the forms and practices, and even led us in a demo so that we could experience the practice for ourselves. What a beautiful space, welcoming heart, and incredible practice. Canβt wait to start going regularly! ππΌ

Maxine is amazing, and the Body and Brain training is unlike any other Yoga or Tai Chi i've ever seen or heard of. It's hard to describe the difference, but I experienced tremendous benefit in all aspects from the very first session. I can't recommend it enough; you have to try it for yourself!

I have been practicing both Yoga and Tai Chi Maxine for many years. She is one of the best instructors I have ever had (I have been doing yoga for over 30 years).
This practice involves a lot of energy work and I believe it is healing for both the body and spirit. The classes are as challenging as you would like, but I never feel pushed beyond my comfort levels.
Maxine greets everyone with a big smile. Plus you get a hug when you leave. What could be better!!!

My first class with Maxine was such a treat! Your first visit is complimentary, although I would have happily paid had she let me.
The Saturday morning yoga class was relaxing and just what I needed to reboot from a stressful week. A lot of focus on breathing, stretching and releasing negative energy and finding good energy.
The tea Maxine serves after class is amazing!!!
I'll be back, and I look forward to trying other classes.

Started here because had to use support to get up, could not do physically what I wanted. Now I move better, feel better than have in fifteen years. Maxine genuinely cares and other instructors are wonderful. If you need to relax, stretch your mind and spirit, you need to come do yoga and more at Body and Brain..

Maxine is a wonderful teacher who provides a great class for the seniors at our facility. At first they were hesitant since most did not know what to expect. They have warmed up to the class and now look forward to her visits. Residents come out of the class feeling relief and having more knowledge about their bodies.

I've been attending classes at Golden Body and Brain for a little over three years, taking yoga, senior yoga, tai chi, senior tai chi and vibration classes. The classes are primarily led by Maxine, owner of the franchise. She is a great teacher, always following a general outline but mixing in new with old "moves" to keep the classes fresh. Each class ends with a short meditation practice. I've dramatically improved my flexibility and balance, and increased my leg strength, the strength and mobility in my joints, and my awareness of the connection between my body and my brain. Max fosters an atmosphere of complete acceptance; No matter your age or physical ability, you can reap the benefits of ongoing practice.

This is SUCH a beautiful space! And everything that's offered inside is very special too. It's a very cool kind of yoga and meditation training that emphasizes the connection between the brain and body. I have been practicing about 6 months. I feel more energy and my focus and emotional control is much better. Highly recommended.

Fantastic! I have made so much progress with the help of owner and instructor Maxine Wagoner. I had no idea this type of training, yoga (therapy for me!) existed, but I am so thankful that it does and to have found it. I am able to see a direct correlation between my work at Body & Brain and the events in my life. Wonderful things are happening in my life in every direction. I wish I could get everyone I know to go there. I can't wait to see how I progress next. :)
