I am from Boston and have taken pure barre in Boston for the past couple of years. I was visiting a…read morefriend in the Grafton area and decided to drop in on a class at the barre effect! This class was by far the best barre class I've ever taken! The instructor, Juliana, was so welcoming, motivating and knowledgeable on proper form and technique. The class was a perfect mix of barre work, mat work, and weighted exercises - the hour class flew by. I feel like this would be a perfect place for barre beginners since it's much less intimidating than the typical vibe at pure barre, but is also an incredible, advanced work out for people who have taken barre previously. I'm so sad I don't live closer to the barre effect. I'll definitely be coming back to this studio any time I'm in the area!

My desire to explore and deepen my practice has taken me all over the world, but this studio is my home base.

I am SO grateful to be part of this community!!!

I love that the instructor started the class with a wonderful affirmation from a new book. Her intention for the class stuck with me throughout the entire day - I feel that so often I attend a yoga class and the focus shifts entirely to just the physical aspect of yoga, and not enough to the meditative state, but this class was the perfect example of both. I also loved the for the warm vinyasa flow, the instructor guided us through some pose options that were not super typical, giving the class a great twist with new energy. If I lived closer I would definitely be returning!!

Been to many yoga studios in the Boston area. They are usually filled with warm people, wondering how you feel after class, inviting you back for another visit...At Flowforms? I. got. nothing. Not a,"welcome to our studio," not a "how'd you like class" Literally, nothing. I was so disappointed. In a lame (on my part) attempt to warm up the cold crew, I said, "Sooo, what's your name?" and when the response was, "Jennifer", I said, "Oh! me too!" Response: a slight head nod, raised eyebrows, and a very cold, "ah ha." Class was okay. Ended, not a thanks for you first visit, not a we hope you come back. Nuthin' These people are cold. A few months later, I decided to try again. Oh my god. JUST THE SAME. The visitors were way friendlier than the staff. THEY actually made eye contact and smiled!! I just really wish there was a decent yoga spot in this area. This does not fit the bill.

This is different than the more flowing yoga styles that I have performed previously, but the classes can still be relaxing and challenging. The instructor was calm, funny and helpful. She gave me much appreciated personal attention during class, adjusting my poses and aiding me to stay in position at times. My only complaint would be that the studio itself could use an upgrade - street traffic can be heard in the studio and the room can feel drafty if you are set up near the door. Otherwise, Flow Forms has been a great experience and I would recommend it for anyone in the Worcester area looking for a yoga class.

After randomly injuring my neck last week and it going away and coming back yesterday I thought it was best that I check myself into a yoga class for much needed relaxation and destressing. As soon as I walked into Central Mass I was put at ease. All of the ladies working at the front were very nice and asked me what I was looking for in a class. I decided on the restorative slow flow class. They have you take off your shoes before coming into any class as the floors creek and they want to keep it as quiet as possible. As I entered the class my body melted to the floor. Mandi took us through an hour and fifteen minutes of body strengthening and relaxing poses. We used straps, blosters and blocks to open up our hips, stretch our legs, and repair and restore parts that may have been aching! I loved this class so much that I decided to purchase the two week pass for $30 that is only open to first time students. It gives you unlimited classes and saves you a lot as a drop in class is $17. I've been back for two more classes since then and every teacher is amazing!
