The teachers here have practiced yoga for years and they are trying to get you in that space both physically and mentally. No one is there after few months of a teacher training certificate. The classes are extremely affordable if you think about the quality of the classes and experience of the teacher. I take Annie's class because that was the first one I attended. It's best part of the week for me now. I go in with chaotic head and so hyper .. I get out all calm and aligned. I don't even go for meditative goals. It's just such an added benefit to my work out.

I've gotten bad migraines after two of the hot classes here, both of which I found pretty boot-camp-y and un-yogic. One of them, the instructor was yelling about " Making your legs the same length " and " uneven limbs " the whole time. Well, I have many close to me with physical deformities/abnormalities--myself included--and that just completely took me out of it. I've had more empathetic experiences at Bikram inspired Hot 26. If you're very low body fat and love to take the most intense Power Flow classes on offer, this might be a good place for you. I have been practicing for six years and I'm in decent shape generally and on the intermediate end in most classes--but I was on the floor and ended up with bad migraines here. The Iyengar class was the opposite, very slow and jerky with extremely detailed cueing. Not a workout at all, but nice if you like Iyengar (I found here that I don't really).

I could see others uncomfortable as well. Within 10 minutes, all of our clothes were soaked. I was so stressed by the heat/humidity I couldnt enjoy or focus on my practice. After class some other students and I let the instructor know the heat was too much, much more than a typical hot yoga class. Unfortunately our class went over by almost 10 minutes and as I was heading to my car, I already saw the cop clipping the violation ticket, I would've appreciated if we ended the class on time since there's meter parking only.

I came to Baptiste in 2021 without prior hot yoga experience and felt welcomed; now in 2024, I continue to commute 1hr each way to practice. Having taken sessions at both the Brookline and the Northampton locations, across varying class energy levels, I always leave feeling like a better version of myself. Nuts and bolts: heated classes of ~95F; plenty of streetside and lot parking; classes with 15-40 participants without feeling cramped; mat/towel rentals at $3; complimentary hydration station, toilets and changing stations!

I have been really enjoying my time at CorePower!…read more Now having completed 15 classes, I can say I am totally hooked. I started going by using my Class Pass and only found myself wanting to use my credits here. Then I tried out the free week trial through CorePower directly and loved it. I didn't wanna take a rest day! I will say you need to be careful because I didn't realize I had booked an eighth class and it didn't notify me that the free trial was over. Once I attended, I was charged $35. I was reached out to by a staff member via email and then got a discounted first month of unlimited classes. I am excited to continue this journey! Here's what stands out to me: The instructors are all so friendly and cultivate such a warm, welcoming environment. There is an infectious energy in the studio that makes you want to chat with your neighbor. The studio feels spacious for the amount of people that can be packed in there. It is always so clean!! Even the mirrors. Also, the LEDs are a fun addition. The locker room, although tight at times, is maintained impeccably. Always clean and stocked with amenities. I love that they always have spray deodorant and tampons! It's hard to feel clean when taking the classes and having several stocked showers is great. I am getting stronger and feel great! Even in little ways I am seeing great process that makes me want to stick with this for a while. To be continued!

Somewhere between a 3 and a 4 for CPY Comm Ave. I really enjoyed the C1 class I took with Neha, who…read moreprovided plenty of modifications and encouragement. Since it was a smaller class, we got some personalized guidance for chatarunga and crow. Chatarunga is one of those poses that looks so easy and flawless when someone does it correctly but it's super tricky to get right yourself. So I appreciated the step-by-step demo. The only nit has to do with the playlist - it was a wide mix of different genres and didn't, IMO, really match the flow. Oh, but some drama. Not sure what happened exactly but the girl next to me left about ten minutes in. It's not exactly a slow sequence so maybe that was what turned her off but C1 is technically the fundamentals class and it's really only going to get harder from here (as someone who plodded through C2 recently). In any event, the shuffling next to me was a tad distracting. The studio was nice and roomy, loved the windows that let in some light on a rainy afternoon. My complaint has to do with the lockers. First - the funky cheesy feet smell scale was off the charts. 100000/10. Second, the lockers looked like they hadn't been cleaned in a while: lots of hair, dust, what looked like cracker crumbs (??) in one. I'm not super squeamish about this sort of thing but CPY is not cheap and the facilities could be a lot cleaner for the price point. Parking: metered street options right in front. Front desk is very nice and welcoming.

I happened to end up in a yoga class taught by Ana (Divya Jyoti) a few years ago and it was…read moreamazing. She was incredibly attentive to the needs of all of us students and really tailored the class to what we needed that day. I loved it. Since that class, I started doing private Yoga Therapy sessions with her on a regular basis and taking her group classes whenever she offered them. It has made a big difference for me. There's nothing like having someone dedicate an hour to really working with you. I have felt a big difference physically and emotionally (!) from working with her. The private yoga therapy sessions last about an hour and are always different. There's usually a mix of talking/checking-in to see what's been going on, breathing practices (pranayama), physical practices (asanas), relaxation techniques, recommendations for helping to feel better throughout the week, energy work, etc. Really, there's so much that comes into the sessions. I always felt I came away from them feeling better, more relaxed, and with some real tools that I could use on my own. I loved that. It really made me feel like I was getting something tangible out of the sessions. She also offers workshops, which have been excellent and are a great way to meet her and see her style. Her studio offers Trio classes, which are semi-private yoga class for three people. Those are a really nice way to get many of the benefits of the private sessions but at a much lower price. Private sessions are definitely an investment, but I feel like the benefits I got from them made it more than worth it. Bottom line: I can't say enough good things about Divya Jyoti Yoga Studio. It's definitely worth checking out!
