I've been attending 1-2 programs each year at Kripalu for the past few years. Their programs vary in quality depending on the presenter, but their yoga classes are consistently among the best and available throughout the day for all levels of practice. Their food is beyond compare! Love, love the organic, locally-produced foods. They always have something for everyone, though... More

My visit here started out with some chaos as I missed the entrance & had to deal with the crowded, noisy, confusing check in process. From there, I had to walk a long way to find my room in the annex & walk in 20 degree weather from the parking lot. Thankfully, things went uphill from there. The room was... More

I was prompted to go to Kripalu because I am a yoga teacher and the name "Kriaplu" is respected by many of my peers as a great place to focus on one's training. I probably would not have made it on my own, if it wasn't for a friend who announced she would be driving there for a weekend program.... More

I have been to four times in the last year and I have had a wonderful experience each time. The accommodations are simple And clean but you will not be spending time in your room. you will be going for the Yoga, the Programs, the food, and the beautiful grounds. If you want to spend as little money as possible,... More

This is the right place for a relaxing long weekend. My wife was taking a course and I was doing the driving and checked in for an R & R weekend. Best thing about this place is the cleanliness, it's impecable. They have the same amount of staff as a 5 star hotel and although it's not a 5 star... More

I've just returned from a weekend trip to Kripalu Center. I wasn't sure what to expect since it was my first yoga retreat ever, but the weekend exceeded my expectations. The accommodations were adequate and comfortable, food was flavourful and fresh, the community and staff were very welcoming and inclusive and I got more out of the weekend than I... More

The classes are world-class with a variety of options from yoga, religion, snow shoeing, creative writing, cooking, stress management, relaxation to many more enlightening options. The food is beyond amazing. Who knew vegetarian cooking could be fine dining? They also now offer chicken and fish dishes. Many of us go for the food and all of the other parts of... More

The yoga was okay, the location was beautiful, the food was edible and very healthy, the accomodations were horrible. The rooms are exceptionally small similiar to a dorm room. There are wonderful classes ...However I think the experience is a little 'heavy.' This is not a place for Yoganistas needing a respite...it is a very serious place and the people... More

I expected more friendliness, fun, playfulness, consideration and attention. We arrived within the check-in window but our room wasn't ready and no suggestion was made as to what we could do while we waited. We were simply told to come back at four, which was about a two-hour wait. In retrospect this foreshadowed our entire visit, which included a lot... More
