From the reviews
I have been a member at Midtown for the past two years and have loved every second of it! While the classes are relatively difficult (especially as a newbie which I was when I joined), the instructors are all more than happy to prove pointers.
My first visit to MY was as a guest. I had taken hot yoga years ago and knew I loved it but wasn’t looking to add any commitments to my busy schedule. I started with a 10 day unlimited pass and hoped I could start a new routine just once a week.
Hands down my favorite hot yoga studio I have ever been to. My favorite instructors are Daniella and Jess and I try to make as many of their classes as I can. It’s clear both of them take their practice seriously and it’s passed on to all of us.
I’ve been a member at Midtown Yoga for 5 years, and I never get tired of it. The staff are as welcoming as the place is clean and inviting. They make it so easy to walk in, check in, grab a mat, and find a spot in the studio. Each instructor shows up eager to guide our flow.
Teacher training at Midtown Yoga
Midtown 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 Midtown 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.
