From the reviews

I’ve been going to Hot Yoga 8 for about a month now, and I genuinely can’t say enough good things about it. From day one, the teachers have been the perfect blend of motivational, energetic, and fun.

★★★★★ — Makalei, Jul 2025

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Alexis has created the best yoga studio in Kaimuki! The energy here is incredible—good vibes all around. As an original Bikram teacher with over 20 years of experience, Alexis brings so much knowledge and passion to every class.

★★★★★ — Keala, Mar 2025

Love this space. Clean. Great teachers. Friendly yoga practitioners. Plenty of parking, both paid and free neighborhood street parking. At this writing, they have free introductory offers.

★★★★★ — S, Apr 2025

HotYoga8 is my studio of choice, and I absolutely love it here. It doesn’t have as many bells and whistles: no showers onsite, no mat rentals, etc.. but I don’t use those amenities at other studios.

Your first hot yoga class at HOTYOGA8 : Studio HY8

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.
