I bought a 10-class Tai Chi package at Jin's Tai Chi in Newton, MA, for $225, expecting a…read morestructured course in Yang-Style 24-Form Tai Chi. Unfortunately, my experience did not match those expectations. During the first three classes, I was taught only the first three postures of the 24-form sequence. After that, the instructor largely stopped providing actual instruction and repeatedly told me to simply "practice on your own" during class time. By the 8th class, the instructor was still teaching posture 3 and continuing to have me practice on my own instead of introducing new movements and new postures. None of this was explained when I signed up. This was not what I paid for, and it wasn't disclosed at the time of purchase that instruction would slow to a halt after a few sessions. After realizing how little progress was being made, I surveyed other Tai Chi schools in the Boston area that teach the same 24-form. Every other instructor I found completes the full 24-form sequence in about 10 classes, with typical pricing around $300 in total. Based on the pace I experienced at Jin's Tai Chi, completing the 24-form here would require more than 80 classes, costing well over $2,000--something never mentioned upfront. When I raised my concerns, they refunded the cost of my unused two classes, which I appreciate. However, the lack of clarity about the instructional pacing and the total expected cost to complete the full 24-form left me feeling misled and disappointed. I'm sharing my experience so others can make an informed decision. If you're considering Tai Chi instruction here, I strongly recommend asking detailed questions about pacing, curriculum, and total expected cost before committing.

The studio still feels like a second home to me. There are now more varieties of classes than ever before, the memberships are affordable, and the staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Whether you're brand new to yoga or just new in town and looking for a warm environment in which to practice, I highly recommend the Corner Studio Yoga.

I really like the yoga here, it's a bit cold now that the winter is creeping in for real, but Jenna…read morehas been responsive and kind enough to check in about it. They offer gentle assists, anatomically safe instruction (Jenna is meticulous about this), and the right balance of challenge and variation for all levels. I come from a different tradition than Jenna's training but have always left learning something new, and appreciating her style, humility and compassion. The space is warm, beautifully done with a combination of greenery, that reclaimed wood post and beam architecture, and clean lines. There's not a lot of Hindu influence here - their music selections are mostly ambient, modern relaxation or upbeat tracks that don't compete with instruction. Don't get confused -- enter through the Main St. door, as if you were going to the bank, but keep going into the building, and up the first half flight of stairs, you're there! This is a wonderful business in Medford, I want to help hang permanent decal signs on the windows, as it's really hard to know that studio is even there. I discovered it by accident when visiting a friend. Gem in Medford. Support a small business owner offering really good yoga with a sincerely open heart.

Amy guided me from the fundamentals and helped me develop much better body awareness--alignment, control, and understanding what my body needs instead of forcing a one-size-fits-all workout. She's especially good at making smart adjustments on the spot (modifications, cues, and small changes that make a big difference). The vibe is friendly and professional, scheduling has been smooth, and the space is clean and comfortable. If you're looking for Pilates that's thoughtful, sustainable, and tailored to your body, I'd strongly recommend this studio.
