This review is just for Khai's men's class on Wednesdays at 7:45pm. If you're unfamiliar, Google…read more"Khai Truong-Vinh" and the details are on the first link. I started taking these classes in San Francisco about two months ago when my out-of-town/state/country friend was visiting SF and insisted that I take his class. I was hesitant, but finally decided that this is exactly the type of thing that is a Bay Area vibe, so when in Rome, right...? I've had mostly positive experiences at the Sun Room in San Francisco, though individual instructors will connect with different students differentially, so finding the one who best suits you is a matter of personal taste. That said, I found that my strength, flexibility, and overall sense of comfort with my body has progressed in yoga more quickly than I expected. I've been looking forward to checking out the Menlo Park location for quite some time, as it's close to my work. Last night I finally left work on time and made this happen. Firstly, the location is convenient. Right off the main street, off-street parking and plenty of it, and centrally located on the peninsula. The venue itself is clean and well-maintained, a nice combination of homey and professional. The lighting is well-done and the vibe is very comfortable. Khai's instructional style is exactly as charismatic as you would hope for a person who's new to this, as I am. He's super-friendly, welcoming, encouraging, and connected with his students. He pushes you enough without pushing you too far. In a nutshell, he's the perfect yoga instructor. I'm definitely going to integrate Khai's Wednesday night class into my rotation, going when work and other responsibilities allow. It was just a fantastic experience with friendly people in a nice environment. Check out the link if you're interested, and if it's the type of thing you'd be into, I highly encourage giving it a try.

The class is about an hour and I think the poses that were taught helped get rid of my stress for the day and ease me in a calmer state of being for the night.

I think my only complaint about the studio was it was a bit hard to find and the parking was not as convenient was I would like. Otherwise, I intend to go back.

Turns out it was a great fit! Environment 5 stars: A huge pet peeve of mine are stinky, neglected yoga rooms! This place is clean, organized, and the atmosphere is peaceful which made it that much more inviting. Classes 5 stars: They offer a series of classes with select dates. I took a class during their winter series. The teacher I had was very supportive, and had a really great energy. Between guiding us through postures, and having us focus on breathing, not only was the work out great, but it puts you in a unique state of mind to reach a great mediation. Cost 5+++++ stars: They ask for a suggested donation. Best part: they forgo their own wallet and give directly to a yoga charity! **This place is really about the practice and helping cultivate your best self! And they are selfless in that endeavor! Highly recommended! 5+++ all the way!**

They're all pretty low impact, but really do help get a good sweat in.

The only thing I am unsure about is the location, as it's a bit inconvenient for me, but the other aspects of the class do make up for it somewhat. I will probably buy a class package so there's some flexibility on my end, but if the location works for you, I definitely recommend!

I have been a member, but recently had to request a pause on my account due to a serious medical diagnosis: severe clinical anemia. My doctor strictly prohibited all physical activity because of high risks of fainting (syncope), shortness of breath, and neurological symptoms. This is not a choice; it's a medical necessity. When I reached out to freeze my membership during my recovery, I was told by Bailey from the "YogaSource team" that I would be charged a $25/month pause fee for March and April. They wanted to charge me to NOT use their services while I am physically incapacitated. When I explained that charging a fee under these extreme medical circumstances was unreasonable and asked to simply cancel without a penalty, their response was even more cold. They cited a strict "30-day notice" policy, informed me that I must make one last full membership payment on 3/24, and then offered to turn that final $99 charge into an "account credit" for a future in-studio purchase. YogaSource would rather force a final payment out of a sick member than show a shred of understanding. Forcing a credit I can only use if I return shows they care more about future revenue than a person's current health crisis. If you are looking for a community that values its members' well-being, stay far away from this place. Their policy-over-people approach is predatory and heartless. UPDATE: The owner, Christina, reached out to me personally after seeing my review. She was very empathetic, admitted the situation was mishandled, and clarified that they do not charge fees for medical emergencies. While the initial experience was stressful, I am very impressed with the owner's integrity and her commitment to doing the right thing for her members. I feel much better about returning to this studio once I am recovered.

The instructors are all so sweet, motivating without putting pressure. I feel like I created a small HeartCore community with them. 1000/10 recommend.
