The styles they teach
“The temperature is very warm but not as hot as bikram and the workout is intense.”
“The power flow is awesome when you want that mindfulness yet you're still going to work those muscles at a slower pace.”
“I never really was into "yoga sculpt" classes before, but am now loving getting strong and worked early in the morning as a great way to start my day!”

From the reviews
My partner and I tried out Yoga Box Encinitas a few weeks ago and have completed closed to 6 classes since. We absolutely love the studio and the instructors; we love all of them but Elyse is our favorite. The hot yoga temperature is bearable— produces a great sweat but nothing too uncomfortable.
Recently started attending this studio and I am hooked. The instructors are great, the vibe is energetic and motivating, and temperature is perfect, and the lighting might be one of my favorite aspects. The ambiance is minimalistic and clean.
This studio is absolutely the best thing that's happened to me in a long time! I had been going to another gym for their group classes hut was looking for more of a challenge. This is it!! It is so high energy. The instructors are SO good, the lighting and music and heat and energy makes class fly by.
Just finished my 6th class and I love it! I bought the unlimited membership because I plan to go at least 3 times per week. It's a great deal compared to other studios, and I feel like you get a good amount of options. Yoga sculpt is great for a work out that is going to kick your butt!
Teacher training at Yoga Box
Yoga Box 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 Yoga Box
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.
