From the reviews

I took Garry’s yin class last night and to say it was transformative is an understatement. WOW! I love all of the teachers I’ve had at the River but this was exceptional :) his talk track, the pace, the flow… 10/10 walked out feeling like my soul had been hugged 🥰 In general I love how zen this space is, I’ve been…

Longtime ClassPass user, but ended up just recently getting a membership to River Yoga because I love it here so much. The instructors are amazing and there is always a class that works with my schedule. The studio is very clean and welcoming. Sunnyside has a great atmosphere that always keeps me coming back.

I was looking for a new yoga studio once I moved to Denver after being a dedicated member of the Little Yoga Studio in Boulder, and I see why so many people recommended going to the River.

★★★★★ — Liz, May 2022

The River Yoga is a truly special place, whether you’re a beginner or an experienced yogi. The teachers and staff are absolutely wonderful, creating a welcoming and supportive environment. Every class leaves you with a deep sense of gratitude, love, and respect—not just for yourself, but for those around you as well.

Teacher training at The River Yoga Sunnyside

The River Yoga Sunnyside 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 The River Yoga Sunnyside

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.
