If you told me 10 years ago I would take part in yoga classes I would of said shut your mouth. Moving back to my home state of Maine gave me an opportunity to explore not only the physical side of yoga but also the power it gives to the mind.I was lucky enough to explore and start this journey at Metta Studios. The instructors at Metta all bring something unique and special to the table. Weather you're looking to get in a strenuous workout. Or simply calm your mind to the noise of life. You can do it all under the Metta umbrella while feeling apart of a community. So don't let the wrong mindset keep you away. Try one class at Metta and change your game.

No matter how long it’s been since I’ve made it to a class I am greeted with hugs and excitement from everyone at Metta! I’ve never been to such a loving and inclusive place. I’m so happy to see Metta Studios expanding and succeeding. There is a wonderful group of humans teaching and learning there.

I have practicing yoga at Metta for almost 3 years now. This is my favorite yoga studio. The classes are breath and alignment focused, I leave feeling refreshed and grounded. Also the teachers are wonderful. I would definitely recommend taking a class ?

I attended the "Strong Vinyasa" class this morning with some trepidation due to the word "strong." I discovered that all it meant was that we would hold the poses longer. It was a fantastic class for me and I am sure for just about anyone who is looking for a challenging but doable class. Carissa gave us several options for each pose depending on our ability, experience, and motivation. When I finished, I felt that I had completed a wonderful workout, one that I would not have been able to accomplish on my own. Carissa is the best!

On a whim, I decided to try aerial yoga.. completely inexperienced. Katie taught my first class and made it so enjoyable, being a beginner I was terrified but her cool, calm, encouraging demeanor made all of the difference! Immediately after class I booked for the next week. I had Carissa for week 2 and her energetic personality made it a blast! I'm so happy to have found this class! Don't hesitate, go!

So glad to have found the prenatal class at Metta Studios during my pregnancy! A great opportunity to move your body in ways that feel safe and healthy as your body changes. More than that, Lindsay creates an amazing, welcoming space to connect with other moms, and shares so much helpful information about pregnancy, labor, and post-partum.

I was first introduced to Carissa, a co-owner of Metta Studios, years ago when I started taking yoga classes with her. Carissa is an instructor that truly pours her heart and soul into everything that she does. Her passionate spirit made her an incredible instructor, and I continued to attend her yoga classes until I unfortunately moved into Portland. Flash forward a couple of years and now Carissa and her business partner, Lindsey, have established what is now Metta Studios in the beautiful Pepperell Mills of Biddeford. Metta Studios is a facility that offers a variety of classes including Barre, Balanced Athlete, circuit training, and various kinds of yoga including aerial yoga. Since moving back to Biddeford, I have participated in a variety of classes such as the aerial yoga, the balanced athlete, and circuit training. The classes are appropriately sized with a larger class having about 10-12 people and then there are some classes where there are only 4-6. The instructors are incredibly passionate about what they do, and they are motivating throughout the class. They all make an effort to get to know the students that participate in their classes. And the classes are no joke. You definitely get your sweat on. I feel privileged to be back at Metta Studios, and I love what they are doing. I highly suggest Metta Studios to anyone who is looking for a local studio in the Biddeford/Saco area.

I LOVE this studio! Not only is the space itself gorgeous, but Lindsay and Carissa are so inclusive and welcoming to every body- in all shapes, sizes, and level of flexibility/strength. Balanced athlete is my favorite- it actually makes working out fun and it goes so quickly. I am stronger than I've ever been and I don't feel low-back pain anymore!

There's so many things I like about Metta. Great downtown location, (beautiful spot in the mills) welcoming atmosphere, knowledgeable & friendly instructors, and a great mix of classes. They are very fairly priced and have an awesome two week introductory membership (why I started going in the first place). I would recommend Metta to anyone looking for a new yoga/fitness studio!

I was lucky enough to find this beautiful studio during my vacation in Maine. I'd encourage anyone in the area to go if they can. Carissa & Lyndsay are both so warm and welcoming and they made me feel right at home. I will most definitely be back when I'm in the area. Thank you both for being my studio away from studio. It means a lot to find a wonderful place to practice when I'm away! �
