The Mindry

I could never leave magical Malibu for so many reasons but The Mindry is at the top of the list!
It's my favorite place ever. It's healing just being greeted warmly by their wonderful staff. And the meditations have been life changing. I have so many favorites but Maha Bodhi, Seth Monk, and Michelle Boback are cannot live withouts. Chrissy who runs the studio makes you feel so happy & special when you arrive and is also incredible as a healer/guide.
If you haven't been yet, you are in for a treat!
Yoga is also fabulous and so popular with the locals. Endless gratitude we have this to enjoy

This place is as good as it gets.

Sometimes, Malibu can feel disconnected from the "heart" of our lives. We get caught up in appearances, $20 smoothies, and maybe forget how lucky we are to live and work in such a beautiful part of the world.

I was having a challenging day last Friday, and walked into the Mindry to get grounded, maybe pickup a protective crystal, and try to recalibrate to a higher frequency before a work meeting.

Chrissy and Maya were exceptionally warm, present, and helpful as I asked questions and explored the different tarot decks available at the space. I wish I could have attended the Cacao and Sound Healing ceremony.

May we all remember how lucky we are to have places of refuge like this amidst our busy lives!

Seems like a beautiful space and I was very excited to try it. I signed up for their 2 week $52 unlimited class pass.
First sound bath was average. Second time I wanted to try a Yin Yoga class, I ran 3 min late and they said that they can't let me in because members had previously complained about people coming in late. I am all for aligning to certain values but isn't running a meditation studio about teaching to be flexible and adjusting accordingly to the situation?

I tried to explain that I just had a baby needed to nurse her, that the light turning left into the shopping area literally takes five minutes to turn green and that parking is not the easiest close by. That I had organized child care specifically to take this class and tried to get some compassion on how challenging it is to even make it to a work out as a mom. I then asked if it would be possible to just get reimbursed as it seems that this studio is not very mom/ family friendly. The manager would only reimburse partially as I had already taken the sound bath. I feel like reimbursing the full amount would have been the least they could have done considering the struggle I went through to go there without being allowed in.

They then offered that they would wave the $10 no show fee for not making it to class - this just left me speechless.

I was hoping to take their Meditation Teacher Training and to become a member but I guess their policy and very unloving approach turned me away and literally made me so disappointed and sad. I hope you don't need to experience this situation after just giving birth and finally making it out of the house.

Also wish they had 6 and 7 AM classes.

Hopefully I will somehow make it to a couple more classes and adjust this post if the experience will improve in the next two weeks. I am sure the teachers are lovely but the way its managed seems not compassionate and very money driven.

I love the mindry! The front desk , shout out natalie(!), and the instructors are so knowledgeable and welcoming! Drop in for a class if you can!

An epic experience for the mind body and soul. It's a must do whenever you have a malibu adventure planned. The staff all smiles warm and inviting. The teachers masters of their craft. The studio clean and comforting. Can't rave about this place enough. Yogi meditation and soundbaths for a pre soul fulfilling journey

What a wonderful place to heal and dive into spirituality! I've taken a few classes here so far and they all have been wonderful and diverse. The staff is so friendly. The space is beautiful and inviting. Perfect for locals to go regularly or even for anyone visiting the area to do a drop in class.

The deep relaxation class was so awesome! I felt so relaxed afterwards. Chrissy was an amazing instructor, I highly recommend it!

Krysta was the receptionist when my friend and I showed up for one of the sound baths and I was admitted to the class because I signed up previously and my friend was put on a waitlist because it was deemed to be a full class. Before the session started there was exactly one spot left and the instructor and Krysta vouched for my friend to join the class but the manager was pretty much refusing to let my friend in and it was very rude on the managers part. Krysta stood up for my friend so she was able to join and she loved it. I would've given 5 stars if the manager wasn't so rude.

I am beyond delighted that I stumbled upon a breathwork class during my Malibu vacation. Brian was my teacher on a Tuesday night and it was a powerful experience. When compared to my routine meditation spot, this place feels like it's fancy older sister. The Himalayan lamps on the wall and leather or faux leather folding cushions put me right into a zen mindset. The lobby is adorable with a range of cutesy, pricey goodies that exude deluxe mindfulness. I felt right at home with the candles burning, lotions and journals.

The class cost $23 which I feel they can probably charge for clientele in Malibu. Brian did a nice job helping us transition into the practice and guiding us throughout. I especially loved how at the end, we had the chance to share briefly with the class about our experience. That was something new I had not done and while I have been doing breathwork for some time, it is refreshing to hear the impact it has on others. I really liked Brian's visualization about setting an intention, and dropping it into your heart. Looking forward to another class the next time I'm in Malibu. :)

Love the space. Room is dark with candlelight. Very Soothing. Body feels good after every class. Pace not too fast or too slow. Teachers and students warm and welcoming. Studio has a Manifestation class which I took for the first time today. Would recommend Mindry to anyone.
