I bought a 10 pass of classes and went to several classes before wasting my money and letting the rest of the sessions lapse - that's how uncomfortable I was. Every class I went to was crowded, and the "regulars" have very little interest in making room for newcomers. There was also a discrepancy about being allowed to bring a guest on my pass -- whatever your policies, that should be reflected in your online registration system, which as of 2/15 allowed you to sign someone else up for a class and use the 10 pass to pay for said class. Instead of arguing with me before the start of the class, the system should be corrected.
Also, I must second what previous reviewers said -- Blonde G. is correct about the lack of guidance and adjustments - Kathryn in Gentle Yoga is the only one who took time to really monitor her students. And Wilma E. is also correct that this space is not welcoming to people of color. Nor is it welcoming to people with bigger bodies. In a restorative class I took, there were 3 people in a packed class who were plus sized and the instructor made an exasperated comment "there are soooo many different body types here today, so just do what you can." Are you kidding? First, body shaming is not cool, and second, many plus sized people do yoga with and without modifications and props. [YELP has removed content here, but there are lots of websites that deal with education and the importance of plus sized or curvy yoga]. Some additional education and compassion would go a long way. If I leave a class stressed and angry, then it's not the place for me. I won't be going back to Amara.
