From the reviews

Hot8 delivers consistently strong classes across Los Angeles. It’s easy to find a studio that works for your schedule—but the Hollywood and Sherman Oaks locations are especially well-run…great staff, friendly / helpful.

★★★★★ — Paul, May 2025

Hot 8 Yoga lives up to its name. There were 8 hotties there, for sure. And if you stayed long enough, you became a hottie, too. I’ve got the Hot 8 yoga experience for the first time. It was one to remember. The location is good, with safe underground Parking. The clean space gives one the feel of a high-end day spa.

★★★★★ — Omar, Nov 2023

I was impressed with this particular location in Hollywood from the moment. Staff was super friendly (as they are at ALL Hot 8 locations) but the Hollywood location has only been open about a year, so it has a spanking new feel to it.

★★★★★ — Jillian, Apr 2025

I discovered Hot 8 because I was reading reviews for Core Power Yoga which I have attended classes for years when traveling. One of the reviews recommended trying Hot 8 Yoga instead. I’d never heard of them since I live in Florida. Since I’ve been doing hot yoga for almost 20 years, I had to try it.

Teacher training at Hot 8 Yoga

Hot 8 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 Hot 8 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 (or rent them here), water, and a change of clothes — there are showers on site; 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.
