Alma yoga is my favorite yoga studio. Each instructor approaches each class differently always keeping it interesting and challenging. There are always different level variations and styles to choose from everyday. The atmosphere is always friendly and fun.

★★★★★ — Rebecca, Apr 2017

Ignore the bad reviews. Been going for a few months now and love this yoga studio. I tend to get bored with yoga doing the same movements over and over but these people keep it fresh, have a lot of variety/interesting poses/flows, and awesome music.

★★★★★ — Jenny, Apr 2019

Love this studio, really excellent classes, warm friendly welcoming atmosphere. I just wish it was closer to where I live. But in a way that makes it extra special for me when I can make a class. Absolutely the best hot studio in the county hands down. Kudos to the owner she sets the tone.

Teacher training at Alma Yoga

Alma Yoga comes up for teacher training — confirmed on their own site. If you're thinking about becoming an instructor, a few things are worth asking up front. First, which certification the program leads to — most hot-yoga trainings are Yoga Alliance registered (RYT-200 or RYT-500), and the style matters: a Bikram or hot-power lineage trains differently than a hot-vinyasa or sculpt one. Second, the schedule and prerequisites — cohorts often run in intensive weekend blocks or over several months, and many studios want you practicing regularly there first. Third, cost and payment plans, and whether tuition includes an unlimited membership for the training period. Teacher training is a real commitment of time and money, so it's worth a call or an info session before you enroll.

Your first hot yoga class at Alma Yoga

Nervous about your first hot class? Almost everyone is, and a good studio expects beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: the room is heated, so it feels intense for the first few minutes — rest in child's pose any time you need to, no one will bat an eye. Hydrate: drink water through the day before class, not just as you arrive, and bring a bottle. What to bring: a mat and towel, water, and a change of clothes; wear something light you don't mind sweating through, and skip a heavy meal in the couple of hours beforehand. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and set up. It gets easier fast — most people say their third class feels completely different from their first.

Heat and intense exercise aren't right for everyone — if you're pregnant or have heart, blood-pressure, or other health concerns, check with a doctor before your first hot class.
