I do not do a lot of google reviews but here it goes... Outstanding Staff, exercise and overall experience. Master Nago (Center and Regional Manager) is fantastic and has decades of experience. The benefit to your body, mind and internal self is critical to your "total" health and well being. This is the place to be folks. Body & Brain is so much "more" than just a yoga stretching or a Tai Chi/Qi Gong/DahnMuDo martial Art training. As a mere humble student/member, I can say this is a place of healing and energy. It helps, strengthens, heals, builds, teaches and so much more. Highly recommend you stop in and talk to the Center Manager to see how this amazing journey will benefit you. You will probably see me in my usual spot in the back of the room participating and learning. Welcome all! read more

I have been a member of Body and Brain Yoga for 15 years. I joined because a medical doctor recommended yoga for stress relief, and the practice guided me to much better ways of handling stress. My stress related illness subsided and my awareness of good mental habits improved greatly. I am delighted with the results, and highly recommend this yoga to anyone looking for more awareness of how their body and mind can work together to create health, happiness and peace. read more

Body and Brain Yoga and Tai Chi in Huntsman Square, Springfield has been a great experience! I've been a member for a few years now. The classes remain fun, dynamic, and top notch. The Center Manager and her staff are caring and knowledgeable. They listen to you and your particular needs and work with you for opportunities to address and improve. Over the past few years my health has improved significantly, I have a deeper understanding of myself, and feel more energetic and positive! read more

I have been attending the Huntsman Body & Brain for three months and it has transformed my life. The people here work hard to ensure every experience provides healing and restoration. There are multiple classes to attend during the week for those with a busy schedule. The other members are nice, and they create a space for all to grow. I love it here and I am looking forward to seeing growth in my life. If you are on the fence, you should come and check it out. read more

I went to Body and Brain to strengthen my core and physical balance. I found the atmosphere, instructors, and actually all of the staff I've engaged with warm and accepting. What I've gained is so much more - balance not only physically, but also Spiritually and mentally. I highly recommend coming to one of the classes or workshops. If nothing else, try it at least once. You'll be surprised. read more

Although the Huntsman Body & Brain center is in a new location, I have attended classes with their instructors for several years. The center is extremely clean, simple and elegant in design but it is the quality and caring of the instructors that make it stand out. The other members were very friendly and I felt very welcome from my first visit. Although I was 265 pounds when I started, I could still participate in class because the instructors helped me to adapt for my condition. In the first year, I grew physically stronger and more flexible and I amazed at how much less stressed I felt even in the same difficult job. I lost 85 pounds and went from a size 26 to a 16 (I have the pictures to prove it). I stopped taking five medications and three medical conditions I had suffered from for years cleared up and never came back. I would never have imagined I could get such life changing results from Yoga class, read more

This place and all the people transform lives and work to create a better human and world.

This place is literally robs you. I paid $20 to go to the mandatory orientation class. It was a private session with one of the instructors and it took 30 minutes. In that class she told me that I NEED TO GO there for 6 months in order to have my mind and body in line. I came out of the class and told her that I will use few drop in classes before I sign up for the class. She told me that they don't have a drop in class and I have to sign up for a package. I told her that I am planning to go out of the country for 1 week and won't be around to do the package. So I will come back and sign up for it. She said that you can sign up now and start on 11/28 (10 days later). She had me sign a contract that said that I need to cancel within a week. They also have $90 registration fee in addition to the 1 month package that is $160. I had some medical issues that I had to cancel my registration. I went there and they said that it is more than a week. I said no, my agreement was to start on 11/28 and today is 11/29 so it is only one day. The woman said that I have to talk to my manager. She called me back and said that we are charging $50 Cancellation Fee because your package started yesterday. I said it did but I have not even used one class, why do I need to pay cancellation fee. She couldn't even speak English well to explain to me what is going on. Finally I got frustrated and said fine, do whatever you want. Bottom line is that I feel i got robbed! 1- No drop in classes so you can try out the class to see if it works for you 2- They make you sign a CONTRACT. It is not like other yoga places 3- Unlike other yoga studio there is nothing spiritual about this place. Making money is the only concern 4- They make you to buy their uniform and pay $90 for it that is not refundable I have been doing yoga for the past 4 years and visited many different studio. I have not encountered any experience like this before. It was crazy. Very very disappointed with this place. read more

I recently visited this place and it was great experience!! They were able to explain to me what my condition was and what kind of training I need to take to connect my body and mind. Very considerate instructors and I felt like they really cared for me. The class was very fun, relaxing and energizing~~~~ If you are interested in really improving your physical health and mental clarity, This is the place!!! read more

So I am not a fan (as my stars are supposed to reflect) but i dont want others to not check out this location. Theres two thing i think you all should know. #1: Even with the 3 month membership requirement* or the mandatory 90$ fee for supplies this company offers one of the most competitive prices for yoga classes, yes it is somewhat of a novelty niche yoga practice. It has a very home-E feel to it and people are very nice. in addition they give you the option to pay monthly with the highest package price being around 99$ a month which blows away other studios that cost anywhere from 150$ to 200$ a month for 3 classes +. #2: After my introduction session, i noticed several red flags, after my practitioners assessment of me he immediately stuck me with a contract...i work in sales so i wasn't about to be up-sold even if the prices were great. I also got an occult-E feel from them and being raised jehovahs witness...i wasnt bout to fall into any traps further down the road. They offered me a free lesson...it seems o.k....Hey try them out you might like them read more

I've been a member of Burke Body and Brain for a few years. I never expected I could improve my physical condition so much in such a short amount of time. The center is staffed by experienced compassionate instructors who care for each member's individual needs. Classes are structured so that anyone can participate. In addition to regular daily classes there are many opportunities to participate in special trainings and retreats which are focused on enhancing the mind, body and spirit. I encourage people to stop in the center to meet with an instructor to find out how Body and Brain yoga can improve your condition. read more

While this review is for my wife, I have been to a few sessions and agree with everything she says: "Body and Brain Yoga truly is a place that will change your life. I started about a year ago, I had a pain in my neck and shoulders and felt tired. I feel like I'm better myself since I walked back to the Center back in September 2016. I sleep much deeper, my body is more flexible and overall I'm happier. I learn how to deal with stressful situations to stay calm and take a positive attitude towards life. At the center you do receive individual attention which truly helps you improve. Even my husband comes with me sometimes to the class. - Radana Kneifl" read more

Today I took my first class here. It's a very unique style of yoga and I loved it. I had a good workout and deep relaxation. I live in Maryland and work in Virginia a few day a week. They have centers near my home and near work, and I can take classes in both places. It seems like a nice community too. I've been looking for a place for a while where I could relax, learn to meditate and also get stronger, I think I found the right place! Thanks read more

Beautiful center! I love how it's surrounded by lots of greeneries. I was also impressed by their staff, caring and knowledgeable. Just as other Dahn centers I have visited, their exercises are good for all types of health, body conditions, fitness level. Their class flows have components for flexibility, core strengthening, meditation, breathing. Great for all levels Thank you Burke.Dahn Yoga! You helped make my holiday visit one to remember. read more

Love this place! Great studio, awesome instructors, and lots of positive energy. The instructors are very friendly and exercises are fun and challenging for any fitness level. I have been a member for 5 months and am really enjoying it! read more

I recently visited my friend and she took me to try a few classes here and I loved it! The best part was the variety in classes, and the people were so genuine... I have done yoga on and off for many years and after experiencing the energy part of the training I'm going to start doing a lot more energy yoga!! The success stories of the people I met were mind blowing, people were able to restore so many different health conditions all from the same energy training and meditations. So much beautiful healing. I like the martial arts style class a lot... Now I see why my friend told me to give it a try! The teacher was beautiful, and she told me that there are some Dahn Yoga Centers in Boston so I'm totally going to check it out. 5 stars for sure, I wish I could give it more! :-) read more

There is nothing like yoga at the Dahn Center! I tried many different kinds of yoga in my life, but this center truly felt like home. When I first arrived for my introductory class, I was greeted so warmly and genuinely. They were able to answer all of the questions I had and really show me where the energy was blocked in my body. I had such a great experience on my first day that I signed up for a year. I go at least three times a week and since then, I have lost 30 lbs, been able to go off of my anti-anxiety medication and I feel more healthy and happy than I ever have! The classes are so much fun and I have met a ton of friends here! I can't wait to be a part of this center for the rest of my life. read more

I am just terribly sad and broken at the treatment that I have received from my supposed "friends". After all the money I spent, all the classes I attended, all the classes I have taught, I would think that you would have stood by me in this quest. Unfortunately, I was wrong. I received my refund check today. I need to reiterate that the refund took OVER 2 Months for Customer Service get to me and I had to repeatedly request it by phone, text, and by email. Since I had requested this refund through my local dahn center prior to my formal request, the total time to get this almost total refund was over 6 MONTHS! By Any standard, that is outrageous and excessive. My previous refund too 4 MONTHS to receive from Customer Service after asking for the refund through my local dahn center so total time for that refund was almost 1 YEAR. Again, By Any Standard, that is outrageous and excessive. read more

I am going to have to agree with SOGOL. I saw a Groupon for the yoga classes, and I live in the area so I called them up and wanted to find out more about the class and what it involved. OVER the phone I was told NOT TO BUY the Groupon as it was in a gym setting and that the instructor would not pay attention to me! Instead I was asked to come in and schedule a orientation, so I set up an appointment, went in and was given an form to sign where it said that I agree to pay $20 for consultation, which was not made clear to me when I had called and made the appointment, and it took the guy 25 minutes as opposed to the 1 hour that I was told to assess that I needed 1 years worth of classes for stress management, when I asked for the pricing list, he did not have any copies to give out so I had to scribble the price on a piece of paper. After that I got a call saying that the guy had some good news for me and I should call him back, when I responded I was told that they will give me a 15% discount on the price they had quoted and that was only valid if I signed up ASAP over the phone, paid a $40 registration fee and purchased a uniform. I told him I was not told of all this when I came in and I did not see why I would have to have a uniform, were yoga pants and a t-shirt not suitable? And why the registration see? What was that about? I told him I would think about it and not to charge my credit card and wait for confirmation, later on that day I passed by and there was another lady there who had just finished her orientation, she STORMED out of the building as I started to talk to the guy and asked him to hold off on any payments as I had not made my mind up, when I left the lady who had just walked out stopped me and asked if they had "sprung" the orientation fee, uniform etc on me, she said she was never coming to this place again and going to get a refund for her Groupon. What a waste of my time and money as there are many REC centers and in the area offering classes at much lower rates and if the REC center is not for you then try Fitbodyandmind, they have a great class, you can drop in any time and no other fringes attached. Very disappointed in their work ethics- which literally is to rob you as much as they can. read more

Excellent instructors and very welcoming culture. A very unique and diverse offering of Yoga blended with ancient techniques of training the mind and body. Couldn't have asked for anything better. read more

This center is wonderful for improving mental and physical health. After the hour, my stress is relieved and I feel re-energized. Before this class, I had dizziness and high blood pressure. After three months, these issues have dissipated and I sleep much better. The meditation has helped me sleep better and stay more focused on my job. The instructor is very helpful, friendly, respectful, and makes the students feel welcome. read more

This is a healing, nurturing place, and well worth the money. I have been attending classes for several months. The staff could not be more friendly, and they seem to sincerely want to help people heal. At first, the exercises seemed strange to me, but they work. I always feel better when I take a class. It helps with focus and energy, and physical, mental, and emotional health. I am glad I found this place. read more

The good, the bad, and the ugly. The good = great exercise and breathing. The bad = prices are above industry standard. The ugly = not customer friendly when it comes to refunds. read more

i love this center! the staff are professional and knowledgeable. they are truly kind and caring. Healing, Tai Chi and Meditation sessions are fantastic for my stress reduction. life is better after every class. read more

This yoga studio is different than your typical just-do-poses yoga studio. Dahn Yoga focuses on meditation, focus, and brain training. If you are a member they also do one-on-one's to help you figure out what areas of training you need to work on. I definitely recommend trying it. I really like how you can learn how to find your energy core. The classes work on intestinal training, brain training, yoga, and tai-chi. The classes are always beneficial when I go. Unfortunately, they don't offer any early AM classes for people trying to go before work. They offer classes every evening which is great but I'm usually not available in the evening. read more

We attended Dahn Yoga about a year and one-half ago and stopped due to surgery. We missed the core and flexibility training, non-contact martial arts, and meditation, and recently decided to return. The staff had changed and we were delighted to experience instructors who took a genuine interest in us as well as superb and personalized instruction on form, wellness, meditation, and self. Our energy, attitude, and peace of mind have improved and we look forward to experiencing the positive interaction and influence of some very special people! read more
