From the reviews

Beautiful and welcoming studio. The staff is warm and inviting. I used to practice at Modo in Montreal and the San Diego studio transported me back to that familiar community space. I really enjoyed Lindsey’s Sunday morning flow, thank you for providing adjustments!

★★★★★ — Clara, Jan 2025

I’ve been to many yoga studios and Modo SD is by far my favorite! Everyone is super kind and accepting, not cliquish like some studios. The classes are great for beginners or more experienced yogis. I don’t feel any judgement when I need to take a breather during one of the heated Flow classes.

I LOVE Modo yoga off clairemont drive. Every instructor there is great. I pick a time around what works for my schedule not the instructor because they are all equally great. They have lots of classes throughout the day to work for varying schedules.

★★★★★ — Katie, Sep 2024

I have been doing yoga for over 15 years, I lived in Australia, Canada and US and practiced several different styles of yoga and have been a member of many studios, the Modo Yoga at San Diego is the best studio I have ever been in my life.

Teacher training at Modo Yoga San Diego

Modo Yoga San Diego 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 Modo Yoga San Diego

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.
