Wild Ember - Arlington, Massachusetts

I can’t say enough good things about taking yoga classes at Wild Ember. I was looking for a gentle yoga class that would calm my mind and work my body gently. I found exactly what I was looking for when I started to take the Slow Flow weekend yoga class. Rejeni is an amazing teacher, and her soothing voice is perfect for getting me into the right mindset. I have now taken classes with multiple teachers, and they have all been fabulous. And I love, love, love taking any of the classes that Joya teaches. She is encouraging and kind. She has helped me to push myself without overloading me. I am in awe of the inclusive, safe space she has built for this community. Absolutely recommend signing up for classes here!

I've just completed a 2 week trial at WE and loved it. The teachers (Ginny, Joya, Tara) have been incredibly welcoming and encouraging. The classes are exactly what I was looking for: fun, welcoming, challenging yet relaxing. The yoga sweat and smile (Joya) and yoga/pilates/barre (Tara) classes are challenging and great workouts. I also loved Ginny's hot vinyasa flow Wednesday evening class (great way to cut the week in 2). The people attending the classes are also welcoming and non-judgmental - lots of different levels of fitness and different types of people. I'll be continuing with them as my trial ends now as I think they are a good fit for my fitness goals. (+ the hours work well for my schedule!) thanks for everything so far!

Wild Ember was my first experience with yoga and boy have I been spoiled. I am a monthly member and attend regular classes. Between moving to a new neighborhood , traveling, and unforeseen car troubles, I’ve recently tried numerous other studios to stick with my yoga routine when I couldn’t physically make it to WE. Unfortunately, NOBODY does it like this studio. From your first visit you’re welcomed and embraced into this community of yogis. The owner Joya greets everyone by name and every new comer is shown around and surveyed for their prior yoga experience. The classes aren’t just yoga workout sessions. The instructors carefully watch your form and offer corrections and modifications as they teach the class with attention paid especially to new comers. I have gained so much strength in my practice, largely due to their focus on teaching proper form. The studio is very inviting, not only in its decor but in the community and culture Joya has cultivated. I have found a safe space I can move my body, find connection, and feel at peace. I would recommend this studio to anyone.

I am so happy to have found this amazing yoga community! Joya and all the teachers at Wild Ember are warm and welcoming! Each class you are encouraged to be kind to yourself and where you are that day, making each class accessible to all no matter their level or current physical limitations. It is clear that Joya cares about each and every person who walks through the door and she has created a wonderful community and space to practice yoga.

Such a warm, welcoming space! I was in Boston for a night before my flight back home and needed some yoga after a weekend wedding down in Newport. I took a class down in Newport which was meh and ego-driven, so coming to Wild Ember was like a breath of fresh air! As a student and a teacher, I love taking classes at new spots and Wild Ember is exactly what I love in yoga studios: heart-centered, inclusive, and authentic. Anytime I'm in the Boston area, this will be where I come to practice yoga. Much love <3

I’m so happy to have discovered this wonderful yoga community! Joya, the founder, is incredibly warm and welcoming, and you can feel how much she genuinely cares for every person who walks through the door. All the teachers are authentic and approachable, and I’ve felt a real connection with each one. I also love the studio’s commitment to sustainability, including their awesome thrift shop. The variety of classes—from cardio sculpt, slow flow and an active vinyasa flow—offers something for everyone, no matter your level or physical needs. And also love that there are a lot of classes to choose from!!
