Yoga Girl® Reviews 318

I enjoy the yoga classes on the site, but I’m just so upset about their refund policy if you are a member. Ive been a member for about 3 years, and I forgot to cancel before my renewal date. Yeah, my responsibility, but it overdrafted my account and I never even saw a reminder email. Living paycheck to paycheck, $270 is a lot. Yoga Girl customer service refused to make an exception told me “I could use the site for the remainder of the billing cycle”. Poor customer service in my opinion.

Edit: customer service did work with me after I left this review, and offered me a 50% refund, which I appreciate.

Also very disapointed. I've been a fan of Yoga Girl since the beginning and just subscribed to their website. Although the videos are great they "forgot" to mention that it's all old stuff. For ex? I just joined three months for the Spring Challenge in which Rachel is talking about .. 2024.
If I had know the site wasn't updated anymore I wouldn't have invested my money

I was a subscription member for a few years. Initially, I really enjoyed the online yoga classes. However, after a couple years, they didn't update with any new yoga classes, and the fact they don't have an app eventually made it more cumbersome to use. When the time came to for my subscription to renew, I no longer had the date in my calendar for some reason, and they never sent any notification that that it was time to renew. I noticed the charge on my account 1 day after it posted. I looked up their policy, and it states they do not refund subscriptions, regardless of how much time has gone by, but that you could email them for an exception. I sent an email stating that I had been a member for several years, and the site wasn't working for me anymore, and explained that I had just quit my job to start my own business, and it would help me out a lot if they would please make an exception and refund my membership. This was a week and a half before Christmas. They replied with a hard no. I've never had a company be so inflexible, and it was especially shocking since it's a yoga company, built on a whole brand of preaching "love and light." Just like most yoga influencers these days, her brand is bunch of crap. It's just another white girl exploiting another culture so she can live her best life. Rachel Brathan can suck it.

I mainly have my subscription because of the monthly live classes & I´m happy they´re back!
I personally enjoy how Rachel has grown into the field of tea ceremonies, herbalism and mindfulness besides from yoga asanas. It´s maybe not everyones cup of tea but I personally enjoy the healing hours very much.
It´s a very affordable price per month & you get a huge library of yoga classes.

I subscribed to the website during the pandemic, but then went back to practicing on a studio. I got interested in the "new" content for this year, and I'm impressed by how there is barely any new classes of actual yoga in the "yoga" girl website. The challenge for spring was old content, branded as "curated". And the monthly live classes are all sitting mediations and "drinking tea" (?) It's safe to say I won't be resubscribing to this membership in the near future. And I leave this review for unwary yogis looking for actual fresh asanas and movement.

I have been following along with Rachel's 12-Day wake up to spring Yoga Challenge. I purchased a 3-month membership, and I am very happy with my access and the website as a whole.
I anticipate extending my membership when my first 3 months is up.

I am a bit shocked by some of the reviews here so I came to give it the review it deserves. Overall, this membership and site are exactly what they promise to be. A creator selling their courses and creations online. The experience was user friendly, intuitive and I was always able to find what I was looking for. I haven’t had to contact support yet, but I also think that says something. My biggest complaint honestly is the audio quality sometimes sucks in the videos, however as a teacher myself - I know this is tough when your content is filming movement (can someone please for the love of god invent a mic that moves with us 😂). However it doesn’t bug me enough to take away a star. I think my favourite part is, I never made it to Aruba to take a class at island yoga, but Rachel brings island yoga to us - and since it’s now gone, it’s legacy lives on here.

Rachel and team, keep eatings what you want, increasing your prices as you see fit to represent your art and recording your ig stories. It feels like we are friends, and any friend knows, we grow and move and change and evolve over the years. Of course we aren’t the same as we once were. If we were, we’ve missed the point. 🖤

I'm really disappointed that a company with the ethos of Yoga Girl opts for an auto-renew business model with such high annual increases (from an original free trial / £50 for an annual membership, to £210 at the latest renewal). I joined in the pandemic and enjoyed some of the content but haven't used it for a long time and have been caught out by the annual renewal. I emailed over 2 weeks ago to ask for cancellation and to request a refund given I'm not using the platform at all, to which I didn't receive a reply until I chased over 10 days later. The reply was to enforce a rigid policy which suggests they rely to some degree on customers overlooking their renewals (and with such high increases at each one!). It would be so much more effective to run a refund policy that takes into account how often you use the service. This kind of fairness creates goodwill and makes the likelihood of you returning high, rather than just relying on the sneaky tactic of auto-renewing subscriptions. The whole thing has left a bad taste in my mouth - something to be aware of when signing up!

No experience with this course or membership- would not pay the money! Rachel (the CEO and founder of Yoga girl) is a self involved hypocrite. She brags about her ancestral life and being all natural and healing herself (she is very against the medical system just like she was VERY against eating animals at one point and boom changed her mind) but is on her smart phone videoing for instagram all day which is the OPPOSITE of living in the moment/ancestral /coming back “home”. This is simply a money maker for her. Very unauthentic.

I’ve recently had a very bad and disappointing experience with the yoga girl membership. I had cancelled my account due to not using it much. I don’t remember exactly when but my last charge was in Feb of 2021 for the annual membership. This Feb (2 years later!) I was automatically charged $189, while at the same time I was receiving promo emails about offers to rejoin. I am certain I cancelled/paused. I have reached out multiple times and received ZERO responses. Today I logged in and cancelled this membership that I never reinstated. I tried to delete my payment details and the website won’t allow me to! It says I cannot because I have an active membership. My $189 and payment details are being held by yoga girl against my will.

Love the many different classes available- both meditation and movement are wonderful. The other deep dive classes are an added bonus. Highly recommend!

I’m so impressed with all that Yoga Girl has to offer besides just yoga & meditation classes. The membership offers such a variety in self-care and healing practices. I’m so excited that all the courses & online retreats are all offered for the premium membership!

Empty promises...
I am disappointed because it's mentioned that certain courses are accessible to all memberships but this is not the case.
I sent an email to the team who told me that it was a bug and to update by paying an extra...
The customer should not have to pay for errors.
I received an email telling me that an update has been made, but nothing has changed. I have asked for a refund several times and no response.
I don't have access to any content updates, I don't understand why I'm paying... for nothing ?

I was a follower and active member of the community for years, participated in many of the courses and Home course (live run) was truly beautiful. However the “rebranding” and “pricing” of the Home course feels more like a very bad joke and desperate way how to bring more people to subscribe… As a customer I feel used and not valued as there is no clear strategy - not many new classes added, lot of changes happening truly without any kind of clear vision and no bigger plan for future. (For example starting with month classes only for few months and than miraculously stopping) It mostly looks like to me that there is nothing new that can be surfaced and used and all the “tools” are practically being reused for last couple of years with no new direction being introduced. It is truly sad, but I do not believe in this company anymore as I think the main drive became money, and it would be completely fine if handled with care (money is truly important and it is energetical currency of this world and I am happy to pay top dollar) however being feeded all over again how valued people in this community are and than to be “used” and misleaded feels like a bad joke. I am actually very sad as I believed and stand for all the principles of this community and in the past when Rachel “promoted” or created something new I believed that I am not being used and I gladly paid knowing it will be worth it, however I do not have this belief anymore and I coming forward I would not participate in any “new” desperate try to bring subscribers.

Yoga Girl is a total fraud. She makes her "living" by babbling to herself on a podcast once a week. Most of the yoga classes on this site are recycled and all the good ones are by teachers other than Rachel herself. Rachel's content has become incredibly dull and it is evident in the way that she is desperately seeking to rebrand herself. Rachel is a smooth talker and that's about it. Once you see through her facade, you realize there is no valuable substance beneath her smooth talking.

I used to enjoy this site and its offerings, but now its been well over a year and zero new courses. Unless you can shell out $2K+ for a Home course, or want to do a short live which they recently restarted. The lives are craft projects though, not really what I am looking for in a movement course. If they ever get back to offering new courses that’s rad, but I don’t like their practice of reposting old classes and making them look new with a new date stamp. Seems a bit disingenuous. Sorry guys, just trying to give some constructive feedback. Wish you the best in the future!

Amazing content, pretty well laid out! I just wish there was an option for me to schedule my chosen classes through the week :-)

I really love the teachers on the website, and have been following Rachel for a few years now. There are some good high quality classes on the platform but there has not been anything new added for a long time. Also subscribed cuz weekly live classes were promised, but they stopped when Rachel moved to Sweden. Now just the same old classes get re-added. Would really like some new content or I unfortunately will unsubscribe. Also, would be great if there was an app!
