From the reviews

Sweet Heat seems to be a great studio! Visiting from out of town in Monterey California; I did a drop-in, which is a one time class visit that supplies mat, towel, canned/bottled beverage from the refrigerator and filtered drinking water.

★★★★★ — Ms., Sep 2025

My first experience of yoga + heat was during a visit with my sister in So Cal recently ... WOW! Right afterwords I got online and was very pleased to find Sweet Hot Yoga, a wonderful local hot yoga studio just 10 minutes from my own home in Monterey.

★★★★★ — Julianne, Jul 2024

I was hit by a car riding my bicycle. I am convinced the only reason I survived is because I had been doing Bikram yoga for years. This studio is by the book and perfect. You get a great group of teachers and a wonderful yoga community. I highly recommend.

★★★★★ — Craig, Apr 2018

I’ve taken about 6 classes at this studio. The studio is very clean, aesthetically pleasing, and I love that they offer good quality mats and towels. The heat distribution is also superb. I absolutely love the instructors and yoga room.

Your first hot yoga class at Sweet Heat Hot 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 to around ~105°F, 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.
