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.

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 Maxines great energy. She is a special person to our family!

Ive done yoga around the world; Maxine with Golden Body & Brain is stillthe best: 7am, three times a week going on 7 years on my way to age 100!Ive learned things about the human body (including my own) that we werenever taught in medical school - and - with less stress, more fun, fitness &flexibility!Maxine is always the punctual, cheerful, attentive role model - and - she isresilient: early on in the pandemic she quickly followed the science guidelinesfor masks, safe distancing &/or remote classes (Zoom).HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!!!!!******************************Kumsumnida!Namaste!Dr. Vern, M.D.

We dropped in on an afternoon, Tai Chi first-timers and curious about what it’s 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. Can’t wait to start going regularly! 🙏🏼

This is SUCH a beautiful space! And everything thats offered inside is very special too. Its 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.

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..

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!!!Ill be back, and I look forward to trying other classes.

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!

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.

Maxine has been the elixir I needed to move back into my normal positive, magic self! I have enjoyed the journey thus far- and am looking forward to expanding my horizons even more with her help. I would highly recommend Maxine and Dahn to anyone who would like to make a positive move in their life.

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!!!

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 cant wait to see how I progress next. :)

Maxine is amazing, and the Body and Brain training is unlike any other Yoga or Tai Chi ive ever seen or heard of. Its hard to describe the difference, but I experienced tremendous benefit in all aspects from the very first session. I cant recommend it enough; you have to try it for yourself!

Ive 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. Ive 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.
