I've done so many Berkshire gyms, and this one just has the overall best vibe imho. All the owners and trainers are super chill, friendly, and knowledgeable about fitness. Everyone who goes is really positive and hard-bodied. Yes, it's kind of expensive, but it's a well worth investment on your physical wellness, plus everyone who goes here is also equally invested in getting a good workout, and that atmosphere motivates you to dig deeper! The workouts challenge the strongest athletes but can also be scaled for all ages and body types. The facility is super well kept, big open garage doors, many big fans, plenty of mats and wipes/cleaning supplies. Thank you CFP!

I enjoyed the program I attended at Kripalu. The grounds are lovely. Nights are dark enough to…read moreenjoy star gazing. The bedrooms are minimalist: smaller than my dorm room in college and you have to make your own bed. There is the tiniest sink in bedroom, just big enough to brush your teeth, I never did get hot water from it. (Shared bathrooms.) All the instructors were welcoming and knowledgeable. A particular shoutout to the employee who helped me get back to Kripalu when I unknowingly wandered onto adjacent conservation land and lost my landmarks. The food had good flavor, local cider was nice, but the change in diet had a negative effect on my system. I would return, but I doubt that the other folks in my party would.

Ahhhh...just like heaven! This place just has the absolute best wellness center vibe. I've been…read morehere several times in the past 15 years and have enjoyed the various Yoga classes, sound therapy, healthy food and dining areas, water sports, hiking, and so many unique classes packed throughout the day, not to mention the sauna and sun room, private mediation and yoga rooms, and the accommodations. It was however unfortunate to find the removal of the whirlpool that I used many years ago in conjunction with the sauna... I hope they get this back! I spent most of my time in the Sun Room on the third floor, lounging on the extra large double couch chair in front of the wall sized windows. The silence, the occasional breeze and glorious light shining through filled the space and my being with enormous peace. As to value, it's unbeatable if you visit from open to close which includes access to everything (3 meals, all daily classes and events, grounds access, etc) for the entire day. The awesome thing about the cost is the special pricing for local residents! Can't wait to get back soon!

Radiance is such a gift! I've practiced yoga at a number of studios in a number of different cities…read moreand have often been challenged by finding teachers that were the right fit. (If you have been to a yoga classes that felt like an 80's workout led by a flight attendant or a class where the instructor was surrounded by such a massive haze of nag champa and new age lingo that they didn't seem to notice that there were other people in the room, then you might know what I'm talking about!) Radiance on the other hand, is one of my favorite studios. The teachers are present, grounded, insightful, brilliant at accommodating all levels and they are amazing, real, actual humans. The studio has a great balance of committed practice, mindfulness and even (my personal favorite) playfulness. Instructors are inspiring. They lead by example but also make personal contact and adjustments. (Which is so important) I always feel welcome and invited when I come in and leave feeling refreshed, renewed and invigorated.

Parking is easy and I agree with other reviewers about the easy community feel between staff and class members. The studio is beautiful and clean, with a calming view of trees through three big picture windows. I have to say too, I do not take for granted that a heated yoga studio will smell clean- and Radiance has it down! I took two different classes here while I was in town. One with Abby, who stood out as straightforward, fun, and very capable teacher. I love a yoga class where people can laugh and feel natural, and she fosters that so well. The other class was with Becca, who has a totally different style- her class was calming, gentle, and very encouraging. I enjoyed both! The classes are heated with infrared but are only up to around 88 degrees so it wasn't too draining. Both teachers walked around class and gave verbal group cues but I didn't notice any individual corrections- so if that's important to you, I would ask about it when you come. One thing to note logistics-wise is that there are no showers or locker rooms, though the bathrooms are big enough to change in and people clear out pretty quickly after class ends so you aren't waiting long. There are open cubbies in the entry area and it felt safe to leave my stuff there especially since there's desk staff in full view the whole time. I really enjoyed checking this place out and plan to come back when I'm around again! Highly recommend.
