She began by assessing our physical condition, and also graciously provided helpful advice on my yoga book collection. She then took us through a series of beginner exercises, while providing helpful explanations and commentary. We discussed gradually introducing yoga poses onto our daily routine, and why this is important as a counter-balance to daily routine imposed on us all in this computer driven age. I now have a solid basis to begin making changes in my health and life-style which I have wanted to make for years. Her manner was friendly, empathetic, and completely eliminated the intimidation I felt towards this complex subject. Based on this experience, I highly recommend Ms. Knight to anyone wishing to begin a yoga practice.

No joke, Alex is magic. I first met her when I took a yoga class of hers at Akasha Yoga studio in…read moreRoslindale - her skillful instruction and loving guidance in the class created a safe container for me to really connect with my body, my breath and my inner world of thoughts and emotions on a deeper level, and immediately piqued my interest in the "Yoga Therapy" she was practicing and talking to me about. I have been going to yoga therapy 1-on-1 with Alex as a client now for over 2 years, and rave about her and the YT approach to anyone who will listen when I get the chance. I leave sessions feeling connected to my inner voice and wisdom in a way that I never did in traditional psycho/talk therapy. I leave feeling physically and spiritually transformed - like I have actually moved stuck energy or emotional pain around and then out of my body while learning from it too, with her support. And her support is not just complimentary: I truly would not be able to access my inner teachings and wisdom in the way I do without her loving presence and healing touch. (And re: healing touch - this woman is the *embodiment* of :healing hands" people, for real. Their energy and warmth are unparalleled in my experience.) I have referred my best friend, her friend, and my 2 roommates to her as well, and have encouraged countless others to go. My roommates and I literally joke at my house that she is our "family therapist" we love her so much. If you are newer to body-based therapies I would strongly recommend buying a package of 3 - 5 sessions at front, to allow yourself to really experience it and "try it on" before deciding whether or not this is a modality that works for you. And it's okay if it doesn't! That said, yoga therapy is an innovative and cutting edge approach to therapy that really integrates all the knowledge we now have about the centrality of the mind-body connection in the healing and self-actualization process, and Alex is truly at the forefront of this field in her skill, experience and mentorship. May all who are willing and curious seek and find her medicine! Or for the more skeptical and less new agey, at least "give it a shot." :)

My instructor, Sam, kicks my ass every class without me even knowing. I don't really sweat during class but then my whole body is sore the next day (sorcery!). I had a private session first and then signed up for a pack of 10 TWS classes. The only thing I wished they had was a better scheduling system where I can go in to see which classes I've attended/missed. They charge for missed TWS classes, which is fine and I understand why they do that. But it'll help hold both parties accountable (myself and Boston Pilates) if I can visually see which classes I've missed and need to make up. There's no formal checkin process so I'll have to rely on memory or their words that I attended (or missed) a class. This is in NO way saying that I don't trust them, just that I think the scheduling system can be improved. An option to reload a pack of TWS classes and pay online would be helpful too!

It has such a warm and welcoming energy that keeps me coming back…read more The instructors know me by name, creating a personal and supportive environment where I always feel encouraged. They push you to improve but never past your limits, making classes both motivating and accessible. The small, community-focused atmosphere makes every session feel special, no matter your level. The studio is well-stocked with mats, knee pads, bolsters, blankets, and straps. Thoughtful details like hair ties in the bathroom and menstrual products show how much they care about their students. The teachers always ask permission before touching or assisting, which makes me feel comfortable and respected during every class. With flexible pricing options- including drop-in rates, lunchtime bundles, and monthly unlimited plans (which I take full advantage of!)- it's easy to find an option that works for you. Plus, I love to support a locally and Black-owned yoga studio. Blissful Monkey is a place where you feel supported, challenged, and always welcome.

The studio is spacious, but the maximum number in classes is 10 people, so you feel like you have lots of room, and as a person who's still a little nervous about COVID, I think this helps the ventilation. The main instructor, Brian, is really chill and has a very positive vibe. He has a great attitude, and I enjoy his teaching a lot. There's another teacher too, Lucas, who teaches on the weekends, and he's also terrific, but in a different way. His sense of humor comes through in every class, and he gives really helpful feedback on poses that help me see them in new ways.

Dear Yelp, I never thought it would happen to me…read more.. I finally found a gym that fits my schedule, my personality, my budget, and my scientifically proven need to cuss up a storm while doing kettlebell squats. (See: http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-do-we-swear/) First of all, it's 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. You get your tag and swipe yourself in. If you want to workout at 11pm on a Friday night or 5am on a Tuesday morning, you're covered. They have panic buttons you can wear if you're there alone. I chose a 6 month membership for myself and my spouse and our rate is $80 for us both, which is quite reasonable. They also have a bowl of Kind bars. So if you worked out and you're hungry and staring across the street at Dunkin', you can grab a free healthy bar and resist. The facility is super. The gym is cozy and comfortable, with brand new weight machines, treadmills, bikes, mats, free weights, a punching thingy (I think that's the technical term), jump ropes, and various and sundry necessary fitness equipment. Even the bathrooms here are spacious and comfortable, offering scales, showers, and spotless commodes. But the excellent facilities and machines and free granola bars are not the end of the story. The place is staffed by some very dedicated professionals, including the magnificent no-nonsense trainer, Crystal. She will push you to your limit and then some, all while cheering you on as you try not to die from the umpteenth bicep curl. She has makeup like a beauty queen, a mouth like a sailor, and you get 3 personal training sessions when you sign up so she will whip you into shape and give you a customized workout plan you can do on your own. And the people who come to the gym are regular people looking to get fit. There are no crazed 88lb gymbunnies. There are no creepy orange guys with bulging veins. No one is making snide remarks about what people can or can't lift. This is the first gym I've been to where I don't feel judged, and that's the best feature of all!
