After some googling, I found Medfield Yoga, so I signed up for the new student package and booked a Monday night class. The studio space is very relaxing and nicely decorated, and very clean! There are plenty of supplies, like mats, blocks, and blankets for the students to borrow. After taking two classes this week, I can say that I really liked the instruction that I received. The teachers were very helpful and supportive, as they explained each position and also demonstrated how it should look. I look forward to taking more classes. :)

I am an out of shape older guy who isn't very limber and has some other physical limitations but all the instructors have been great at helping me find movement and poses that I can do. The facility is quite nice with showers available. There is a wide variety of different classes and times that have provided a great amount of choice for my practice. I have improved so much that I am now comfortable in any of the classes. The best part is how the leaders challenge even the people with well developed practices and help us learners as well. Best wishes to Jordan and Angela as they continue to grow the yoga community here. Make sure you try the yoga nidra practice some night. Conscious unconsciousness. So awesome! I will encourage anyone to please come try his great studio.

A dangerous cult, housing discrimination, exploitative practices, troubling child neglect,…read morefraudulent charities, unsafe housing. I lived there for several years and below are my observations and experiences. - I've seen over a dozen suitable tenants ask to live on property and be given the run-around over the past 3 years and did not even get to the application process. This amounts to housing discrimination. Some people are required to do a "Panj," which is an extensive, hours-long interview process; it entails 5 of the most senior in-crowd asking invasive and inappropriate questions about one's sex life and medical status, among other things. Yes, they discriminate against both medical and lifestyle in housing applicants. More popular people, or those in the "in crowd" (wealthy) are not required to undergo this scrutiny. - Housing conditions didn't meet state minimum standards and they would not make repairs unless I threatened to sue. Leaks, mold, violations of ADA, Massachusetts health, and fire safety codes. Violations too numerous to list. - They don't have an innkeeper's license, which is required by state law to accept guests in shared housing. They can't get that license without meeting fire safety codes, which include automatic sprinklers and installing fire doors. They refused to get the license/meet the codes and are not legal to accept guests- They insisted on accepting paying guests anyway. Also they didn't conform to health codes about sanitizing shared bathrooms and while I was in guest housing, and I landed in the hospital for a CONTAGIOUS SKIN INFECTION. - Rampant child neglect. One unattended 7 year old routinely (more than 10x) harassed me outside of my apartment door while I was working from home. The parent is in a position of power there and refused to address it. After complaining, I was effectively bullied and blackballed. I do not recommend bring children here for activities. I witnessed unsupervised resident children bully and abuse other/guest children. Who insists on a 7 year old going around unsupervised? Grossly negligent and unsafe. - While I was working for one of their charities, I observed fraud, misappropriation, missing donations, and soliciting donations under false pretenses (making it sound like donations were going to one charity and funneling them to another). When I brought it up, they would not address these issues unless I threatened to make it legal. Who has time for that? They survive on "seva" or folks donating their time and labor while Yogi Bhajan made over a BILLION dollars from fleecing his students and exploiting their labor in just this way. His abusive ways live on in this organization. Nothing has changed despite their rebranding and claims at reform. I do not recommend donating or volunteering for this organization. - Beware of the men! I was sexually harassed, pursued, cornered, followed, or otherwise abused by every male resident except one on the property. This is tacitly condoned by the administration: I complained when an employee of the ashram cornered me in my apartment. In short, they did nothing. The employee still works there and has done worse to others. Not a safe space for women in my experience. - They need to keep a percentage of apartments turning over to meet their bills, which won't be met if folks stay because of "rent control," so less established residents may be/are driven out. Part of this is about rigging the elections for their board, (after a # of years, residents are allowed to vote). This results in less popular (poorer) residents being bullied and hazed out of their housing, among other things. - Gatekeeping, discrimination, hazing, and unevenly applied rules make it impossible to cut through red tape and are the definition of cult abuse. - They persecute the poorer members of community who cannot or will not sue or move out. - All major (and most minor) decisions are made by a cabal of off-site elites who almost never step foot on the property. - There is MUCH more in the way of cult abuse. - Watch HBO's documentary series called Breath of Fire discussing the cult abuse perpetrated by Guru Jagat and the rampant sexual and financial abuses by Kundalini Yoga's founder, yogi bhajan. Yoga at the Ashram still runs on this abusive patterning.

I've been to one class so far, but I can tell from the energy of the space that it will be a good fit for me. The class I attended, on Saturday morning, was both restorative and challenging, the perfect mix to shake off the week and cleanse up for the weekend. The instructor's assists were well timed and perfectly aimed at my needs. She also finished off with a nice aromatherapy touch during savasana, including a great neck and shoulder stretch that was much needed. Thanks, Renee!!!

I went here a couple weeks ago with my friend and her sister. We all came on a Groupon we bought,…read more10 classes for $39. This was my first time doing yoga in a long while. We got there at 9 am for a 9:30 class. There was one other woman waiting along with us, and now that I remember, it was the day after daylight savings and we all thought the instructor didn't set his/her clock forward because the woman waiting with us said the instructors are usually early as are other people taking the class. The instructor got there are 9:20/9:25 and we didn't know but we needed to do some paperwork pertaining to our health and make up a card with our name, number, etc. My friend had printed her Groupon out and this was an issue because she was told it needed to be marked "redeemed" on the app on her phone. Luckily for her, she did have her phone out in the car, but they should really state that they don't accept the print outs for the Groupon and that they only accept the Groupon if it's on the mobile app. If this was stated on the Groupon, I'm sorry, we didn't see it. But as far as we knew it didn't mention anything like that. All of this made it so that the class started late and therefore we were late entering into the actual studio so we had to split up. We got there early so we could all be next to each other, but it didn't happen that way, unfortunately. As for the class, it wasn't really de-stressing or relaxing. The instructor, while nice enough, was kind of all over the place and out of it... She'd go to help someone with a pose then get back to her mat and forget where she was at, or she'd try to tell us what muscle a certain pose was working but couldn't remember stating "I'm a yoga instructor, I should know." Maybe out of it due to the time change? I don't know. I tried to concentrate on my breath, posture, and relax but it was hard because I felt all over the place with everything. I'll go back at a different time and day, as I still have 9 classes, but after that I probably won't continue at this studio as I found one closer to where I live.
