From the reviews

Ina and Halee have the most delightful, and calming presence. When I walked into Inhales the day they opened, I didn’t want to leave… so I didn’t. Their yoga classes were just what I needed to have a peaceful mindset for the rest of my day.

★★★★★ — Sarah, Aug 2022

This has to be my favorite Yoga studio this side of the country. I’ve had the pleasure of practicing with Daniel and Halee a fair amount and most recently got to attend a class with Constance for the first time. All of them are wonderful teachers that have had a genuine impact on my yoga practice and life.

★★★★★ — Patrick, Mar 2024

Inhales is hands-down the best wellness sanctuary on Long Island as they have mindfully curated and created an atmosphere that effortlessly inspires deep, meaningful wellness and connection for ourselves and community supported by an array of yoga and movement classes to suit everyone’s needs, weekly open house…

★★★★★ — Christianne, Dec 2022

Ina and Halee, the owners, are wonderful teachers. Connie is also an awesome instructor. Depending on the class, the yoga could be slower or faster paced, challenging or something more relaxing. Everyone I have met has been really friendly and kind. Everyone is at all different levels yet it’s a safe space.

Teacher training at Inhales Wellness

Inhales Wellness 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 Inhales Wellness

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.

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.
