From the reviews
First time doing hot yoga and it was by far the best yoga class I’ve ever taken…I think I’m a hot yoga convert now. The space itself has a welcoming feeling to it, light, and airy. Also, Naomi was an awesome instructor and the class had a natural flow to it. Looking forward to coming back!
This was a wonderful yoga experience, even for a beginner like myself! The environment was incredibly welcoming, the space had been re-done and offered a pleasant calmness, and I left the class feeling a lot better. I wish I could start my morning this way every day!
Best yoga studio in Durham!!! I just moved here and have been looking for my studio and have found it! Naomi has the best flow - it’s challenging and makes you feel good in all the right places. She does fun poses and has restorative components. The studio is super cute with clean bathrooms and a shower.
What a fantastic hot yoga space! Super conveniently located and all of the teachers are incredible! They make classes super accessible and offer lots of opportunities for increasing/decreasing the difficulty of your practice. I have the monthly unlimited pass and it is 100% worth it!
Teacher training at Solstice Yoga
Solstice 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 Solstice 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.
