But more importantly, the owner and her staff are fantastic. They are so nice to my 3 year old son. They are patient and kind and I trust them 100% to take care of my son. They have a ton of classes on their schedule to accommodate families with even the busiest schedules. For little ones like my toddler, the lessons are more about gross motor, balance and coordination skills rather than actual gymnastics moves though they do actually sprinkle in some actual gymnastics stances even for the little guys. They also have two free play times each week that any member can attend so that the kids can get exercise more than just on their class day. During the winter months I worry about my son getting enough exercise, so this is a real plus in my eyes. Tumble Fun also hosts birthday parties and sometimes have "kids nights out" where they take care of the kids in the evening, let them play in the gym and give them treats to eat. Oh, and they have a bouncy house INSIDE the gym! I think that's totally cool. :) So to summarize, this gym rocks! Sign your kids up for the next session. You won't regret it.

I have attended Be Well for a number of yoga classes (about 5 so far) but my recent experience with…read morea massage at the studio finally compelled me to write a review. Recently, after a run, I experienced a severe pain in my left foot (I know, I know, insert disability movie joke here) which I though might have been a stress fracture. My wife suggested I schedule a sports therapy massage with Be Well and I am very glad I did. My session with Sarah was setup via the web with no problems. She was ready to work at the appointed time, was polite and VERY knowledgeable. She quickly diagnosed the muscular issues that were causing the pain, and worked out a lot of the knots and tightness in my legs. She also gave me some very sound training advice which is already proving to be invaluable. I walked into the session with a limp and walked out with a steady gait. Simply put, Sarah was superb and the overall experience (booking, cleanliness, service) was excellent. I will add that the yoga instructors have all been great so far. They've offered well thought out sequences and kind instruction with frequent non-intrusive adjustments. Sometimes the room can get a bit noisy from the workouts happening next door or people yapping in the hallway outside but it is never too bad. A great health studio with very professional and encouraging staff.

Mellara has such a special presence: warm, calm and heart filled. I loved her teaching of the Yoga Nidra practice. Suzy her co-teacher at the retreat has a bubbly, loving vibe that makes people feel safe and comfortable. I loved the overall flow of the retreat: starting in silence, the balance of Yoga and teachings and the openness and love that the teachers bring to this work. The retreat attendees were also lovely and enjoyed the friendliness and community of the group. Food was wonderful and enjoyed that there was herb tea available all the time:)

Both Mellara & Suzy did an amazing job creating a beautiful and safe space for us to deepen our practice through yoga and meditation. The retreat was Friday evening, all day Saturday, and half-day Sunday... And was designed thoughtfully with strong, mild, yin, and restorative yoga. Meditation and teachings were woven throughout our entire time. In addition, there was opportunity to explore the beautiful Westerbeke Ranch (if desired) and spend time alone hiking, resting, journaling, or whatever the soul needed. Intentional thought was put into creating this time, and I was allowed to go deeper into my true self through teachings. It was a wonderful experience.

I always like to treat myself to a "spa day" for my birthday. Having relocated to the South Shore,…read moreI was a bit at a loss of where to go. Zen Den offers so many different services, it was an easy choice to go there, but a more difficult choice on which services to get! Location: In Norwell, right off Washington Street. Lots of nearby restaurants. Private parking lot. Services: Pilates, yoga, sports performance training, flotation therapy, infrared sauna, acupuncture, massage, injury and chronic pain clinic, reiki, and guided meditation. Facility: I'm a bit conflicted when it comes to actual building and set up of Zen Den. From the outside, all appearances are that of a relaxing, dimly lit, cozy "den" where you can pamper and nurture yourself. Inside, however, you'll find a lot of industrial features: fluorescent lighting, office-style wall partitions, exposed vents, and so on. My first visit, noise was a big problem. With such an industrial, open floor plan, any noise-- especially in the back area where the sauna and flotation tank are-- echoes quite loudly. While this isn't a "deal breaker", I feel most would be mildly disappointed with the lack of ambiance. Experience: I was able to call only one day in advance and book both an infrared sauna and float therapy session. They were running a special deal where booking both would save you $10 or so. During my first visit, I did the infrared sauna. For those unfamiliar, it is a dry sauna (no steam) that utilizes infrared light therapy to increase circulation, alleviate aches and pains, and elevate your mood. I was given little instruction, especially as it pertained to "customizing my experience" with lights and music. There is a small computer screen that allows you to play music, watch movies, surf the web, and so on. I located the music/radio player (behind a small door), but was unable to change the music that it was on. The Pandora app wasn't working. Since the current music-- whatever it was-- was relaxing, I didn't mind at all. 30 minutes was the perfect amount of time in this sauna; it was during the last 15 minutes that I really started to sweat. Once finished and toweled off, there were showers available to rinse off. However, no additional towel was left for showering (I had to find one myself). Free shampoo/conditioner, body wash and towels. Complimentary water bottle to help you re-hydrate when you "check out". I ended up standing at the front desk for 15 minutes; finally, I flagged someone down and let them know I needed to pay. The rest of the day, I felt energized, my attitude felt "brighter" and generally, my mind seemed more clear. The second visit, I tried the flotation therapy. This is similar to an Epsom salt bath, except the magnesium sulfate is in very, very high concentrations (like the Dead Sea). So concentrated, in fact, that you will float without even trying! It's great for relaxation, pain and meditation. I was previously told that they had an iPhone/iTouch to play music on, but unfortunately, we could not get it to work for my visit. Everything about my float and the tank itself was explained to me very well. The floats are 1 hour long. I found it very soothing and relaxing, especially once I turned the lights off. Unfortunately, I experienced a seemingly rare phenomenon of feeling "sea sick" about half way through my float, but stuck it out. I later read about it online-- apparently, some first time floaters feel this way. After a few times floating, most people claim they no longer experience it. The staff was very supportive and sorry that I didn't have a great first float, but encouraged me to come back and try again-- maybe for a shorter amount of time. This experience was much more guided, which I appreciated; everything was explained and seen to (for example, having enough towels). Value: The "package deal" for the infrared sauna and flotation therapy is a steal. If you're at all curious or considering either one of these therapies, book them both to save yourself a little money! The infrared sauna is only $30 per visit-- totally affordable-- and I look forward to signing up for more of these as the winter settles in. I will definitely be back for more rejuvenation and relaxation, and hope to try several other services they offer!

I cannot say enough good things about this program! My daughter is two now and since I am a teacher…read moreand have the summers off, I figured it would be the perfect time to try some new activities with her. We signed up for the "mixed ages" (birth through age five) class. But I worried because we had never taken any type of class before and she has a tendency to become shy or clingy to me. Plus - we would be bringing my three month old son with us. Well - she and her brother absolutely love it and my daughter is really coming out of her shell!!!! The teacher, Rosemary, is so kind, patient, and fun. All of the songs and activities are perfect for this age group. If you arrive early, there are books set out for you and your child to look at. The class starts with a song that welcomes each student to the class. There are all different types of fun, interactive dances and marching that use props like colorful scarves or bells. And of course - plenty of times where the kids get to use different musical instruments like egg maracas or drum sticks. My daughter especially loves the songs that let them choose from a whole bin of various musical instruments. The class ends with "sparkle dust" chimes, blowing out the lights, lullabies, stamps and time to touch the teacher's guitar. The time just flies by and everyone seems to enjoy it as much as we do! We have met a lot of really wonderful families and children through this class as the environment is such a friendly and welcoming one. An added bonus is that they give you a book and CD of the songs to take home with you. My daughter just loves listening to the songs in the car now. I would definitely recommend this place!!!

That introduction blossomed into a weekly activity that my oldest daughter and I were able to share for almost three years, and still lives on when we turn on any of the themed soundtracks (each session comes with a two CD set to listen to at home). I am SO excited to introduce the classes to my twins starting this session - they already know the music so I can't wait to see their reaction to the class! Gwyn and her staff offer a warm, relaxed, comfortable environment that allows kids the chance to explore instruments and sound, music and movement. It is also a great place where we can start teaching even the youngest of participants about how to interact socially with their peers. Best of all, music classes are a place where children and their caretakers can spend the whole lesson time just having fun and being silly with each other. A couple of pointers to help you really get the best out of your sessions: * Save snacks, drinks and loveys for after class. These will only distract your child from the fun! * Be prepared to participate! Our kids take their cues from us, so we need to show them that it's okay to sing out loud, dance around and be silly! Your session instructor will really appreciate it. *You'll get a CD at the beginning of each session for you to listen to at home - use it! It's REALLY amazing to watch the progress of your kids over the course of the session. I would frequently find my daughter humming or singing the songs from class while she was playing with her toys.

Not only does the Center offer a variety of yoga classes and teachers, but they have days and times that fit anyone's schedule. I took classes with several teachers, and they were all wonderful. My favorite ones were Diane and Mona Cusick. Each teacher offers something different as far as their approach, so it's an individual thing. I would give any of them a try. The Center also offers many interesting workshops for body, mind and spirit. I took belly dance classes here with two different teachers, and I had a great experience. Check their schedule online for the latest offerings. They also sometimes have special concerts. I went to a Kirtan once, and I had never been to one before. It was really cool, and I recommend going if you like to sing. The space itself is beautiful with spacious yoga rooms . . . there are also 2 large bathrooms for changing. The place is very clean and decorated in a very lovely, spiritual way. There are many wonderful things to buy in the shop, including jewelry, clothing, books, incense, and other supplies. I've bought my most beautiful earrings here, and a shirt that I get compliments on every time I wear it. The people who work at the Center are so nice you'll want to come back again and again. I wish I could come back here, but I now live in Cambridge and got rid of my car. Sigh. If you live in the Bridgewater area, you MUST check it out. By the way, the Center moved some time ago, and aren't in Central Square. They are at 992 Bedford Street (Route 18).
