From the reviews
I’ve done 10 hot yoga sculpt classes and I’m completely hooked. Such a fun, intense workout that makes you feel strong and accomplished every single time. The heat + sculpt combo is unreal. Safe to say this is my new obsession—already can’t imagine my routine without it.
Love hot 8 yoga especially the strength and sculpt classes! The instructors really push and motivate you to be a better you and sometimes that’s what you need to get thru the tough classes! 10/10 recommend hot 8 yoga to anyone!
sherman oaks location provides a first class yoga experience.The staff is exceptionally nice and welcoming and the classes and teachers are awesome.the facility is also clean and always well stocked with matts and towels
Class schedules are well thought out. Lots to choose from with a great time frame for busy workers like myself. The teachers are fantastic!!! Very personable and available and approachable to talk after classes. I love that. They actually remember your name and remember what you might need help with. So cool.
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.
