From the reviews

I’m surprised that everyone who gave a bad review is actually in the wrong… The fact that a studio needs people to show up on time isn’t only common sense (where has this gone?

★★★★★ — Elodie, Aug 2022

My first class with YOBK at their Williamsburg location was fantastic. The pricing was fair, the environment incredibly warm (no hot yoga pun intended.), and the facilities clean and well maintained.

★★★★★ — Matthew, Sep 2021

To say that Yobk has changed my life would be an understatement! I have been a gym rat for as long as I can remember and it wasn’t until one day 5 yrs ago a friend invited me to a studio that I realized how much more I could connect to this kinetic energy and I have been a die hard ever since!

★★★★★ — Brooke, May 2024

Just did the traditional hot yoga class for the first time here. What a nice place, seriously! Friendly staff and my yoga instructor, Kate, was AMAZING. She instructed the class in a way that everyone from beginners to experienced ones can enjoy all together.

Teacher training at YO BK - Williamsburg

YO BK - Williamsburg 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 YO BK - Williamsburg

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.
