I took an Iyengar class here a little while ago. It's on Mass Ave in Arlington, right next to a…read moreDunkin Donuts on the cusp of the town centre. They don't take credit cards and I didn't have cash, but the teacher let me take the class anyway and send a check later ($17 for a drop-in rate, though it's cheaper if you sign up for the class series). The class was well-taught -- the teacher knew her stuff and placed the correct amount of emphasize on anatomical correctness and breath. But it just wasn't for me. It's an older, less physical crowd than I'm used to, and the class really didn't feel like much of a workout. I know, yoga isn't all about asana, but I work in an office and sit nearly motionless all day. Yoga class is my time to move and sweat, and I barely did either. Afterwards I just wanted to go home and sleep. But if you want low-intensity yoga for relaxation and restoration, this is a good place. The space was clean and nice (though the ceiling felt low and gloomy and the room was cooold), and they have a wonderful assortment of props (mats, blocks, blankets, eye pillows).

I took 2 classes here last weekend: Yoga I/II with Chip and Nia with Roxanna. While both were…read moregood, I felt they were geared toward an older crowd and therefore not really what I expected/was looking for. Also, they charge $17 to drop-in for a class, which is a bit high for me. They do offer muti-class passes that you can buy, which brings the price per class down to $15 or so. I am interested in checking out some of their other classes to see if they have a different vibe. The Center's location is a good one for me, especially for weekend classes. Overall, people (instructors & patrons) were very nice & friendly.

Full Disclosure: After practicing at The Corner Studio for four and a half years, I took Jenna's…read morefirst 200 hour training and now have the honor of teaching here as well. 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.

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.

I really do love it here. The yoga is fantastic. I've been practicing for 10+ years and have…read moreattended a handful of local studios as a regular. There are many teachers here and they are really *all* great. Their styles are also varied - so you'll never get bored with the classes... It's never obnoxiously crowded during the day. Huge plus. Parking is easy and safe. They seem to be mixing it up with different class styles (barre) which is great, I just really hope yoga remains the focus... I've heard the wellness services are good but I've never tried... I really like that they are always involved in socially conscious fundraisers... Retail selection is always interesting and changing... They frequently sell packs of classes on special, great deals... My only complaints/suggestions are: bathrooms - could be cleaner (near door handles, etc), and need faucets that will fill a water bottle... Most important - I despise practicing in the dark during the day. A simple privacy film applied just on the bottom of all the windows would allow for privacy and natural light. Lose the old blinds and worn, stained & dirty IKEA shades.

Wow-wee. I've been taking most of my yoga classes at Yoga Six in Wellesley but was looking for…read moresomething a tad hotter. The C2 class made me look like I had climbed out of a swimming pool afterwards. Not for the faint of heart (literally) but that was my fault - I should've started with the C1 class, which is less heated and slower-paced. PRE-CLASS: It was my first time doing CorePower and, I don't know, I was expecting a little more of an introduction/explanation when I checked in. Maybe I'm spoiled by the OrangeTheory introduction when the instructor walked me through everything and took the time to go over where everything was. Here, all I was told was that we'd be in studio __. I wandered around aimlessly and found the lockers, with signs saying locks were available at the front desk. It would've been nice to know that upfront but c'est la vie. Trying to be more zen in the new year. CLASS: Hot, hot, hot. Inga cranked the heat/humidity all the way up. I was a literal puddle about five minutes in. As a newcomer to CPY (but not to yoga), I got a lot of the cues mixed up; this is a studio-by-studio and teacher-by-teacher distinction but hearing the poses called by their names (instead of "crescent lunge with right foot back") took a while getting used to. Also, the playlist wasn't ... great. Some love ballads mixed with hard rock. Just give me the elevator violin music or nothing at all. The flow for the class was quick and fast-moving, with lots of one-legged variations, and you are encouraged to take breaks but the break itself was so short before the teacher would move on. It got so hot at one point that I seriously contemplated leaving the room. Bring plenty of water and one extra towel. POST-CLASS THOUGHTS: The studio itself felt cramped; the class was only about half-full but I'm not sure a packed sardine-type class would be enjoyable with so much sweat pouring out of every orifice. I did wish that, for savasana (aka, my favorite pose), the temperature could be turned down several notches. Or CPY could offer cold hand towels after (sorry, spoiled by Yoga Six). Also - there is definitely a sweaty funky smell. Like 8/10 on a scale of funkiness. Unescapable and inevitable, for sure. Sorry to keep drawing comparisons but one of the features that I like a lot about Yoga Six is that there, the ventilation seems much better. Parking: Abundant, free parking. This is probably what's going to make me come to the Fresh Pond CPY location over the other ones in Boston or Cambridge.

WOW, this studio is huge and beautiful! Definitely the nicest one in MA…read more It's so spacious, there are 2 floors. The bathrooms are super clean (feels like a hotel bathroom, to be honest), tons of stalls and shower stalls and the drinking water fountain is fast/cool.

I have an on-again off-again yoga practice and when my neighborhood studio closed shortly after…read moreCovid, I was looking for a spot to practice about once/week. I had previously done DUY's mysore program in Brookline (2015-2017 or so), and had taken hot yoga classes here and there. I will say, hot yoga is still not my favorite (I crave it maybe twice a year), and this location offers primarily heated flow. Being the closest to my house, though, I found myself attending class year when I purchased a new member monthly special and then subsequent class cards. I have noticed that they have made aesthetic improvements to the studio from when they first purchased it from another franchise. It is quite homey and I can tell there is definitely a community. There are infrequent non-heated classes, but the majority of the classes you will find on the schedule are hot. I discovered that teachers have a different level of heat, so you may want to try different ones to see what works best. My favorite teacher left about 18 months ago, but I will still drop in from time to time. Some teachers follow a pretty generic "hot flow class" type template while others are a bit more original and interesting. I do really like how each teacher has their own style and you get to know that and you can take class with the teachers you like best. I find the 9:30 AM weekday class convenient; not too full but also early enough in the day that I can still get started working from home at a somewhat reasonable hour. The standout teacher at this location for me is Masaaki.
