I would totally be a member here if I was local. The studio is freestanding in a strip mall off of William Street and it's pretty easy to find. Parking is easy and I agree with other reviewers about the easy community feel between staff and class members. The studio is beautiful and clean, with a calming view of trees through three big picture windows. I have to say too, I do not take for granted that a heated yoga studio will smell clean- and Radiance has it down! I took two different classes here while I was in town. One with Abby, who stood out as straightforward, fun, and very capable teacher. I love a yoga class where people can laugh and feel natural, and she fosters that so well. The other class was with Becca, who has a totally different style- her class was calming, gentle, and very encouraging. I enjoyed both! The classes are heated with infrared but are only up to around 88 degrees so it wasn't too draining. Both teachers walked around class and gave verbal group cues but I didn't notice any individual corrections- so if that's important to you, I would ask about it when you come. One thing to note logistics-wise is that there are no showers or locker rooms, though the bathrooms are big enough to change in and people clear out pretty quickly after class ends so you aren't waiting long. There are open cubbies in the entry area and it felt safe to leave my stuff there especially since there's desk staff in full view the whole time. I really enjoyed checking this place out and plan to come back when I'm around again! Highly recommend. read more

Radiance is such a gift! I've practiced yoga at a number of studios in a number of different cities and have often been challenged by finding teachers that were the right fit. (If you have been to a yoga classes that felt like an 80's workout led by a flight attendant or a class where the instructor was surrounded by such a massive haze of nag champa and new age lingo that they didn't seem to notice that there were other people in the room, then you might know what I'm talking about!) Radiance on the other hand, is one of my favorite studios. The teachers are present, grounded, insightful, brilliant at accommodating all levels and they are amazing, real, actual humans. The studio has a great balance of committed practice, mindfulness and even (my personal favorite) playfulness. Instructors are inspiring. They lead by example but also make personal contact and adjustments. (Which is so important) I always feel welcome and invited when I come in and leave feeling refreshed, renewed and invigorated. read more

Radiance is an incredible studio. The management, teachers, and ambiance is top-notch. I love the diversity of offerings and teachers--all equally rocking it in their own way. Love, love, love this studio. read more

An AMAZING yoga studio if you're in the Berkshires! The studio is clean and pretty, uncluttered, calming, easy. The yoga room itself is quite beautiful, with an amazing panoramic photo at the front - insta-relaxation. They offer a great variety of class styles, like New to Yoga (great for beginners), a rock solid flow in Radiant Flow, and loud crazy fun Rockin' Vinyasa, which is basically Gillian's fabulous interpretation of a hip hop yoga class. So fun!! Gillian, the owner, is great, and her most prominent supporting teachers like Jane, Amy, and Steven are incredible as well. Radiance often has cool weekend workshops like restorative yoga or arm balances, etc. I have been to yoga studios all over the world and Radiance is one of my faves. Check it out!! read more

You could spend your time debating between a bunch of studios to go to or you could just make life way simpler and hit up Radiance Yoga. This is my favorite studio to practice at in the Berkshires. The space is clean, warm, comforting and free of distractions. They've got classes at times that work for me and of different challenge levels. Sometime I'll go to a Beginner Flow class just to warm up and open my body without working to hard. Other times I'll go to the Tuesday night Rocking Vinyasa class when I want to get an awesome hard yoga work out. They've got good deals as well. If its your first time there you can get a New Student Card which gives you 3 classes for $30 that need to be used in a month. They also have $10 classes for students. read more

Radiance is one of the best yoga studios I've ever been to. Hands down. In an area where there is a ton of excellent yoga options, I've yet to find anything as replenishing as Radiance and as consistent too. I've tried my fair share in the Berkshires, but every single class at Radiance yoga has been an awesome experience. read more

I wasn't a yoga fan at first, but I went here to try it out and I really enjoyed it. The only thing that upset me about this place is that I was charged twice for buying 3 classes which should have only cost me $30, but ended up costing me $90 because I used a card that had little money left on it and it caused an overdraft with my bank. I had to call and fight with my bank about reversing the fees and it was a huge ordeal that could have been avoided if my card wasn't swiped twice. Besides that, the place is great and the instructors are all amazing! read more

Back again and very impressed with the staff and class please visit this studio and check out this awesome place.

When I first moved to back to the Berkshires a few years ago I was looking for a yoga studio to continue my practice at. In particular, I wanted a studio with a heated space (I moved back in the winter and the cold and I just don't get along well) and I was hopeful that if I could find a heated studio, that it would also offer a few intermediate/advanced classes. When I found Radiance Yoga's "Rockin' Vinyasa" class I was stoked, as both of the elements I was looking for seemed to be encompassed in this class. I was blown away by my first experience. The music, the energy, the focus, the intention; it was all there and then some. I was hooked immediately. I never thought I would be capable of performing inversions and other rather intimidating looking poses I'd seen, but with Gillian's guidance I fell in love with the weekly journey of seeing what newness I could accomplish. I truly felt my physical and mental practice grow stronger with each passing week and three years later I feel myself continuing to evolve with Gillian and the Radiance community. read more
