The M-effect.

I have practiced yoga with Mahima for the past year and a half and I love it! Mahima’s cueing is spot on and she makes every class different yet accessible to all .Her classes are simply designed yet my entire body and mind wakes up after the practice.

I have attended Mahima’s yoga and Meditation wonderful classes. She really follows traditional principles and makes everyone from beginner to advanced practitioner feel welcome. If you are seeking a knowledgeable yoga teacher who goes beyond the poses, I whole heartedly recommend her classes.

I have looked forward to yoga classes with Mahima for more than 2 years-Knowing I would be guided in a fulfilling practice balanced with joyful patience and new challenges. I have been a yogi for over 10 years. Yoga not only supports my personal well being but also my career in classical singing. When I entered Mahima’s class I immediately knew Mahima was uniquely gifted and a unique gift to the fox valley.

I have been practicing yoga with Mahima since the first day she started at the Y two and half years ago. She is more than amazing! How lucky we are to have such a special person, who is truly authentic and thoroughly impassioned by Yoga and for her students. I can’t wait to begin practice with Mahima at The M-Effect.

I have had the privilege to practice Yoga with Mahima for many months and am thrilled to join her for classes at her new studio- The M Effect! She is incredibly knowledgeable and adaptable for all levels of practice. I have learned so much from her and cannot recommend her enough.

Yoga classes with Mahima are wonderful. She creates a comfortable environment for all students and offers a deeper yoga experience than I have encountered at other studios. My strength and flexibility have improved since practicing with her. I would recommend her for both beginners and experienced yogis. And Bollywood dance classes at The M Effect are a really fun way to get a cardio workout. Love this studio.

Mahima, with her expertise in Yoga, Pranayam, and Meditation, is unmatchable. She is someone who knows her ground and is a very hands on instructor. The sessions are very friendly and comprehensible. if you are looking to add structure and correct methodology to your everyday meditation practice and yoga asanas, then M Effect is your answer. Highly recommend this studio to beginners as well as advanced practitioners.

Mahima is probably the best yoga instructor in Appleton; experienced to beginner, she’s got a variety of techniques and postures that have improved my practice considerably – I have been taking her classes for about 1 year and am always learning new things.

I took my first ever yoga class at M Effect today…the beginner yoga class was just right, and Mahima the instructor/owner was wonderful! I learned a lot and I will be back!!

Ashley

I definitely recommend the M-effect studio, Mahima (owner) is the best, I have tried yoga and meditation in other places time ago and I thought that wasn’t for me, I haven’t known a yoga
and meditation instructor like Mahima, I love that she follows traditional principles, she knows what she is doing, she guides us through it with her knowledge, wisdom, patience and love.

I quit yoga 4 years ago after a surgery left me disabled with CRPS in my right arm. After taking Mahima’s classes ( I was skeptical and fearful of my ability) my overall flexibility, mood, and energy has all been positively improved. I now have more range of motion in my right arm and my weekly migraines have seem to have disappeared . Her meditation classes have also had a calming effect of my nervous system which goes haywire when you have CRPS. The investment in yoga with Mahima is worth so much more than my $300 per month migraine shot, which I stopped receiving, and a better investment for my overall health. Mahima is a real Master of yoga and I feel so fortunate to be able to take her classes.

The M Effect is a studio that checks all the boxes for me. From my first visit this summer I felt at ease and at home in the relaxing atmosphere and caring ambiance. I literally took every course I could that Mahima offered over the summer (various levels of yoga and bollywood dance). I am truly appreciative of the individual attention she gave me during the sessions, and also admire how she was able to do the same to all of the other attendees. I highly recommend the M Effect!

Irene

I have been coming to classes for about three weeks. Having many physical issues with my knee hip and back I didn’t know if I could handle the positions. Mahima is very patient and adjusts my body with care and professionalism. She is very knowledgeable and teaches not only yoga and breathing practices, but also teachings of why we do this and how it is all connected. I will keep going back for many years to come.

Mahima is an excellent and well-trained teacher. This was my first time doing authentic yoga taught by an Indian woman. She not only takes the class through the proper techniques but also brings a personal touch to the practice through stories of her family and what her mom has taught her. Her depth of knowledge and willingness to share it creates a yoga experience that expands past an ordinary workout class.

The community is also what encourages me to come back. There are people from all different backgrounds, nationalities, and age groups. It’s a wonderfully diverse and supportive environment for people at all levels of yoga experience.

I highly recommend the meditation classes. I’ve never been able to meditate succesfully on my own or with online guided practices without my mind wandering, but Mahima gives the class breathing techniques to focus on, which keep you present and occupied. I have never felt calmer!

Katharine Hackney

The M-Effect is a wonderful place to practice yoga. Classes are small and welcoming. The teacher is incredibly knowledgeable and easy to talk to. I especially like that breathwork and a chant are included in every class, emphasizing that yoga is more than just a physical practice.

Kathy Welhouse

What I find to be so next-level about the M-Effect is the way Mahima teaches how to incorporate pranayama and meditation with a yoga practice. You will feel the value of these classes very quickly! It’s like being in a new reality. An immense thank you to Mahima for teaching and nourishing the well-being of all who attend.

Zach

Mahima offers classes on varying levels of traditional yoga with intimate classes where she provides detailed instructions, and immediate feedback on doing the yoga postures correctly.

Her meditation technique is none like I’ve ever had which have taken me to a deeper understanding of the practice. I especially like to do yoga and then go right into the meditation class because my body is ready to relax after being moved.

I absolutely love the Bollywood dance class! It’s so invigorating and fun that I don’t even feel like I’m exercising.

A BONUS for me is finding out more about about the Indian culture where yoga began…it’s very enlightening to me ✨

Brenda Susor

It’s a beautiful wonderful experience! If you love dancing and just want to have some fun, this is the right place. Mahima brings you so much warmth and energy to the studio and the dance moves are the cherry on the cake ❤️

Pooja Mayekar

I am new to yoga and meditation practice and found this wonderful studio. I felt welcomed and was able to fit in with wonderful instruction. Great for all levels to bennefit from! Offers a great variety of classes.

Nichole Gerarden

Very very welcoming environment and Mahima is a great teacher! Her focus on mindfulness throughout the practice is exactly what I was looking for! She challenges you but within your comfort level. Highly highly recommend!!

Mary Holten

The instructor meets you where you are at. She takes her time to teach you poses and breathing techniques. It is a very comfortable atmosphere, everyone in the class is welcoming. The different types of yoga classes are both relaxing and challenging. Best yoga experience I’ve had, highly recommend trying this place out!
