From the reviews

I started here in November and love the workout, the space and instructors! I’m an older gal so I have to remind myself that my practice is between me and the mat, and I feel the instructors encourage this every practice.

★★★★★ — Lori, Mar 2025

I just completed my 900th class at Intentional Yoga, and I couldn’t be more grateful for this incredible community! When I first walked through the doors, I had never done yoga before. Now, not only have I built a consistent practice, but I continue to learn and grow every time I step on the mat.

★★★★★ — Eric, Jun 2025

I love the welcoming environment at IY, but it can be intimidating if you are trying to get into hot yoga or still building a practice. They have somewhat limited class options/scheduling for beginners or those who can't keep up with the hot series.

★★★★☆ — Emily, Jan 2025

I have been attending classes at Intentional Yoga for about 6 months. It has had huge positive effects on my body physically such as increased strength, flexibility, tone, cardiovascular and decreased the amount of pain that I have had.

Your first hot yoga class at Intentional 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, 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.
