From the reviews

Equinox is nice and very clean from my perspective. Equipment is up to date as well as the toiletries in the locker rooms. As a newcomer, not being the best in shape, working out can be a bit intimidating when you’re surrounded by fit and athletic members and staff.

★★★★☆ — Yesenia, Jan 2023

By far the best gym I have ever joined. I've been very cautious and a bit paranoid with Covid-19, and I have to say this gym is the benchmark for cleaning and sanitizing from floor to ceiling. The staff is exceptional with an amazing General Manager, Don Laird, that not only listens to member feedback but acts on it.

★★★★★ — Mikhail, Apr 2021

This Equinox location is AWESOME. I love it so much. Clean, great instructors (especially Candyce and Laura), and really good equipment. Don the manager here is what makes this place worth going to. I feel so happy at Equinox.

★★★★★ — Amanda, Oct 2024

Equinox Westlake Village is the epitome of fitness luxury! From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with an upscale atmosphere, pristine facilities, and a staff that goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome.

Teacher training at Equinox Westlake Village

Equinox Westlake Village 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 Equinox Westlake Village

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.
