I love this place! I joined about 4 weeks ago and can’t wait for the work day to end so I can get to class. It’s a workout that doesn’t feel like a workout, but trust me, you’ll sweat. I come in tired and leave energized and at peace.
The instructors are all wonderful and you can tell they enjoy helping people.
You simply must come try it out! !

The class I attended lasted a little over an hour and focused mainly on stretching, but it also included exercise that increased my heart rate and some meditation at the end of class. I really enjoyed the format and left class feeling energized, not sore or exhausted. The instructor was very friendly and made the class fun.

Body & Brain yoga has been my best friend! It helped me find balance in my life. Taking their class is the fastest way to energize myself. It’s not hard yoga but simple stretching exercises that emphasize a lot on breathing at the same time. It helps to clear my head and circulate energy in my body. The best part I enjoy in their class is 15 minute breathing postures. It accumulates energy in my core and prepares me for energy meditation at the end of class. After class I always feel I am back to zero, the beginning. It’s such a relief that I have Body & Brain yoga to re-energize me after busy work during the day.

I went in to get some exercise done but after the session was over I felt amazing. I felt relaxed and more clear in my eye. Instructors were very welcoming and everybody there was so nice. I look forward to going back!!!

I attend classes regularly and love the practice. I came to Body & Brain to learn to meditate. I did not realize that my 15 year struggle with depression and anxiety would be affected. After three months I no longer take these medications. Working with my doctor of course. I have learned to manage stress in my life and I’m much happier. Don’t expect this to be like any other yoga class you may have attended before. This Korean practice combines yoga postures, body tapping, and mediation in every class. Come try it out.

I needed to increase my flexibility and decided to try this yoga studio. The instructor was very friendly. Each class was different with good stretching and moving. The class ends with a short meditation and breathing. After class I always felt more energetic and happier.

I did individual healing sessions which were good. However, the agency’s business practices are terrible. I informed the manager that I was retired and could not afford some of their expensive services…$ 500 for a group of sessions when I didn’t even know what the sessions consisted of. However, she pushed and pushed for me to sign a contract «because I needed the help.» She kept pushing for me to take yoga classes and also training classes to become a healer even though I said I wasn’t interested. She literally tried to persuade me to do the classes for over an hour and a half which left me defending myself the entire time. To my own embarrassment, I wound up signing a contract… And, everything had to be paid in advance. Through extenuating circumstances, I could not attend the last healing session. ($ 100!) When I asked for a refund because I needed the money at the time, they charged a $ 50!!! administration fee and only refunded $ 50 out of the $ 100. Yes you read that right. $ 50! In today’s times, there is a lot of competition in the health/fitness field and I would go elsewhere if you want to pursue this type of program. They may know their craft, but there is too much of a push for money and contracts and paying in advance. It was high pressure at each session to sign up for more things. NEVER again! It ruined my faith in their motives.

I attended a Tai– Chi class yesterday for the first time in my life, and while I was not familiar with the style of the class, I left satisfied. I went because I purchased a Yoga and Fitness Passport on Groupon, which gives you 30 classes for $ 20 at numerous workout/yoga/fitness facilities throughout the area, to use over a six month period. The facility was clean and the staff were friendly. As far as the actual class, I enjoyed the relaxation/meditation aspect, but did not get much of a workout. In fact, I went to X-Sport afterwards to do some cardio. At first, I was intimidated with everyone literally pounding their ‘Don Jon’ in a circle, but after a while, the class incorporated a lot of stretching. I will probably go back for more classes when I am in the suburbs, but Tai-Chi is not my thing. I would recommend this studio and class to people who want a good stretch and mental clarity. There was a meditation aspect to the class, and being in tip top physical shape is not necessary for Tai-Chi. In fact, there were many older people with bad hips, backs etc. I knew this because the class was followed by a discussion and tea time. I am not in love with this studio or practice, but it is not something I would never do again.

I’ve been going here for over 18 months, finding great relief for soreness and stiffness. I’ve also benefitted tremendously from learning meditation, and closing each exercise session with meditation. I’m less anxious and much more focused than when I started. It’s «different», but in a really good way!

I attended an hour long «tai chi» class, which consisted mostly of simple, gym class-style calisthenics (35 minutes), followed by ten minutes of something that somewhat resembled tai chi. The remainder of the class was cool down exercises, followed by a group discussion. This class resembled a tai chi class the way that a parsnip resembles a bicycle. The relentless attempts to up-sell are rather annoying as well.

If you have never done Tai Chi, this is a great place to start. At the beginning of every Tai Chi class, we move each joint, one by one. The exercises are not difficult, but by the time we reach the ankles, I always feel open and prepared for the series of poses that follow. The postures themselves are deceptively simple — I have worked up quite a sweat, even though we were going slow. By the end, I sink into a deep and peaceful relaxation. When I walk out, I feel centered and grounded. They offer advanced training if you are interested and I understand that is really powerful.

Wow! What a great experience. I’ve been looking for this type of experience my whole life. I enjoyed the exercises so much I signed up not only for a membership (which takes the per class amount way down) but also some of their amazing workshops. My life has completely changed implementing their brain mastery procedures. I highly recommend this to anyone with any medical conditions, physical issues, weight loss, or just spiritual connection. Truly an amazing place!!!

My impression of Dahn Yoga is that it is very much a business. They wanted me to sign a contract to pay them so much per month — I wouldn’t. I had to wear their cotton pants and top to participate in the sessions. I had to have a private session with someone before my yoga class. It began with sitting me in front of a tv to watch a video on how poor most peoples digestion is. In my private session the guy prodded my abdomen and intestines deeply and somewhat painfully!
THEN I got to take a YOGA class — it was quite aerobic. Very little instruction from the instructor about moving thru the poses — just watch and follow her. At one point we were asked to set our feet apart, bend our knees to squat a bit, open our arms as if hugging a barrel — and then HOLD that pose for 20 minutes!!! (I did it too!)
I thought the padded floor was nice and the place was very clean.
I never went back and would not recommend this as a good place for yoga.
