From the reviews

I was in town for a couple of days and wanted to find a heated yoga studio where I could move through a good flow, and Empower Yoga was a great find. The heat level was perfect and the space felt welcoming right away. Kathy was the instructor and led a beautiful, well-paced class.

I’ve gone to a few classes and it’s been wonderful so far. The instructors are super nice and friendly and you get your moneys worth. Plus the first class is free for new customers which is awesome!!

★★★★★ — Justin, Mar 2025

The infrared light is so nice, especially in these winter months! The staff is extremely helpful and friendly, and I never have trouble booking a class that works with my schedule because there are multiple times offered across the three different studios. I would definitely recommend Empower yoga!!

★★★★★ — Meghan, Jan 2022

Amazing time this morning. Went for an introductory class and Lisa was so welcoming! The class vibes and flow was phenomenal and both challenging yet relaxing. It was also Lisa’s birthday and she brought beautiful cookies! I will definitely return when back in Milwaukee!

Teacher training at Empower Yoga

Empower 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 Empower 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.
