From the reviews
Absolutely incredible experience! I just had an amazing breathwork session with Sybil at Hot Yoga University, and it was truly transformative. Her energy, guidance, and presence created such a safe and powerful space to release, breathe, and reconnect.
I just checked out HYU for the first time today, and I can’t wait to go back! The staff at the front were super friendly and made sure to acknowledge it was my first visit. The class wasn’t packed, so we had plenty of room to move around. I had my first class with Julie, and she really made me feel at home.
In my 8+ years of practicing yoga all over the West, this is hand down the best yoga studio I have been to. There is not a bad class there, all the instructors know there stuff and lead great class for all levels, and the variety of classes and times is superb.
HYU is the most welcoming, approachable yoga studio I have ever been to :) Morgan & Elias have a soft spot in my heart but I’ve never taken a bad class here! As someone who works from home, I love that they have afternoon classes because a lot of studios don’t have classes between 10-5.
Teacher training at Hot Yoga University
Hot Yoga University 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 Yoga University
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.
