A nice studio, spacious with a variety of yoga classes from hot to meditation. Classes scheduled throughout the day, so it's pretty easy to fit it into your schedule.

★★★★☆ — Anna, Jul 2019

It can be intimidating to go into a yoga studio for the first time, but I did not find that here. Everyone is friendly and thoughtful and knowledgeable and wants to help you succeed. Also, the space is great. They have radiant vs. forced air heating, nice flooring and plenty of room.

★★★★★ — Lou, Jul 2019

My favorite parts about Santosha Yoga is the extra care the yoga instructors give. The classes have a variety from beginners to advanced. I enjoy the small things like the cold towel they hand out at the end of practice. I also enjoy how Santosha yoga communicates through email! Very good communication and classes.

Your first hot yoga class at Santosha 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.
