Wonderful Summer Solstice event. As a newer student and first time at Aris, I was very pleased with how welcoming and supportive Natalie and Amy were. Looking forward to attending more classes.

★★★★★ — Jaclyn, Jun 2025

I was given the opportunity to try Aris Hot Yoga and Pilates for 21 days. I have had a phenomenal experience thus far! Natalie and Amman are the two instructors I’ve worked with the most, and not only are they wonderful people they are also amazing at what they do! They push you to become your best self.

★★★★★ — Samantha, Oct 2025

I can’t say enough good things about Aris Hot Yoga + Pilates! After having my baby girl, these classes have not only helped me get back to my pre-baby body but, more importantly, helped me feel like myself again, mentally and emotionally.

Your first hot yoga class at ARIS Hot Yoga + Pilates

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.
