From the reviews

The Yoga Circle is a fantastic place to try yoga or to deepen your yoga practice. The studio itself has everything you'd want to see provided -- easy ways to pay (cash, check or credit), storage for your belongings while you're in class, mats that you can borrow or buy, bathrooms and showers and towels.

I badly pulled my back at work and the hot yoga definitely sped up my recovery and improved my mobility. The customer service is fantastic. The environment is immaculately clean and comfortable. Very welcoming of first timers! I highly recommend Yoga Circle.

Your first hot yoga class at The Yoga Circle

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.
