From the reviews

Simply the best! I love the serene environment of the studio. When it comes to winding down at the end of the day the studio is dimly lit and feels toasty. Usually it's Lauren teaching and she is always solid and consistent. I love her words of wisdom and positivity! I find all the teachers pleasant.

Haute Bodhi is great!! Oh, for sure, you will get a serious sweat on but feel amazing after. Instructors are sincere, friendly & helpful when/if you have questions. Really love the challenge of Tammy's classes. Always feel a little victory once I finish a class of hers!

★★★★★ — Laura, Apr 2024

The studio is gorgeous complete with everything you need from mats to towels, showers and even a fridge stocked with yummy drinks! The class was fun and challenging while versatile for all levels.

★★★★★ — Lindsey, May 2024

Teacher training at Haute Bodhi

Haute Bodhi 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 Haute Bodhi

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 (or rent them here), 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.
