Awesome place friendly environment great meditations, and free high quality tea. Highly recommended!
I took the 1-month trial package when visiting DC. Lo and behold, 1 year later... they are still billing me, despite the explanation from reception that this was a trail with no long-term committment. Works out as a $700 session. For those who like their Om with a dash of thievery?
We reached out to Take Five Meditation to put on a two-hour session as part of an Embassy-wide retreat and we are so happy that we did! From start to finish, Eldad was a joy to work with and helped us build a program to fit our needs. Our guide, Alyssa, was a consummate professional: articulate and poised, yet flexible and adaptive. Can't recommend Take Five enough!
Informative and caring staff that helps meditators of all experience levels feel comfortable and have a great experience. The other meditators were extremely nice as well; there is a great culture here! They have teaism and self-reflective books to read while you wait for your class to start. Get there a little early so that you can set up your spot on the floor and talk to the friendly staff (especially if you're a beginner!).

From the warm welcome to the heartfelt goodbye, we had a fantastic experience. The place is impeccably clean. The staff truly listens to you. We popped in for a gong bath. My first advice is: Just Go!! Whether you have experience in meditation or not, you will leave in a peaceful state. The vibrations of the various instruments relax mind and body. Delightful.

Not just a zen place to meditate. I loved that the sessions involved some interactivity and feedback plus great welcoming lounge with premium teas.

Quick little meditative break in the day. The people were really nice and I didn't feel like a schmuck being a beginner
Meditation was really new to me. Wanted to explore a bit more and Jen the instructor was really awesome. I was really able to take my self into another (dimension I could say) and relieve the stress carrying on my shoulders that week.
I've never meditated before as I'm usually quite restless, so I was definitely intrigued by the idea of a meditation studio. On my first visit, I did the gong meditation session, and it was amazing. I literally felt transported and I've never felt so relaxed but exhilarating at the same time. I would highly recommend checking it out. Plus, first class is $10!
beautiful space and experience, loved it and i am not your meditation type - highly recommend
Great place to try new forms of meditation in a friendly environment with really good free tea.

Take Five was a welcoming and open environment. The staff was friendly and excited to offer us free loose-leaf tea while we waited for our meditation session to begin. We signed up for the "gong bath" which was entirely new to me. I was a little unsure of what I was supposed to be doing once it got started, but the guide did a great job of letting us know what to do, how to go through the meditation, and did so in a way that made me comfortable the entire time.
As for the actual "gong bath," it was really cool. It was entrancing, calming, relaxing, and, at least with me, got my imagination going as I tended to visualize the sound as it occurred. I don't want to describe it any more than that because I think each person experiences a little differently.
Great recent experiences at Take 5 Meditation. Clean studio, knowledgeable teachers and reasonably priced. I started with the drop in classes and just recently switched to the monthly given the number of times I found myself wanting to meditate. Location is heart of Dupont too.
