How hot are the classes?

Our hot classes are heated to 105 degrees Fahrenheit and 40% humidity.

Are there showers and locker rooms?

Yes, clean showers are available for use before and after class. Your possessions can be stored safely in our locker rooms.

How do I sign up for class?

You can sign up for any class via Mindbody. You can also arrive to the studio to register in person however please be aware some classes may be filled to capacity from the online bookings. We recommend arriving 15-20mins before class start time to ensure enough time to register and get a good spot in the studio.

How do I pay for class and what forms of payment are accepted?

Drop-in class and packages can be purchased via MindBody and we accept all major credit cards. You can also purchase and pay in the studio, where we accept major credit cards and cash.

How much is a class?

The drop-in price for a class is $35. But we offer a variety of monthly packages & class packages at a discount. We also offer limited-time promotions throughout the year.

Do I need to bring a mat and towel?

Mat and towel are required for class, but we do provide rentals for a small fee. We also sell water and coconut water.

How can I prepare for class?

It is best to prepare by drinking a lot of water during the day before your class and the night before. We recommend about 32oz of water long before class. Hydration should happen well before you arrive to the mat. Drinking too much water right before the class or during will only fill your belly and slow you down. That’s why it is also best not to eat 2-3 hours before your class time. We also recommend taking electrolytes. Please visit our New to Yoga page to learn more about what to expect.

Do I have to be flexible and strong?

Absolutely not! This is a common misconception. Everyone starts somewhere and flexibility is no different. You should seek to build flexibility and strength over the course of a lifelong practice, but it all starts with the first class. Over time you will get stronger and more flexible even if you find your first few classes to be very difficult to follow. It’s all about showing up.

What are some common benefits of a Hot Yoga practice?

Hot Yoga has been proven to lower your blood pressure, improve posture, reduce and eliminate stress, anxiety, back & neck pain, nourish the skin, improve blood circulation, muscle strength and flexibility. It can also reduce symptoms of joint pain, arthritis and insomnia. Not to mention the numerous documented benefits for your mind!

Are there other studio locations?

No, this is the only location. Hot Yoga Chelsea is independently owned and operated.

What should I wear?

The yoga room is heated to about 105 Degrees Fahrenheit so we recommend wearing light, loose-fitting, sweat-wicking clothing. No matter the time of year the studio will always feel like summer so be prepared to sweat in what you wear.

Can I join a class a few minutes late?

No, the studio doors are locked right at class start time, so we do not allow students to join a class late. We highly recommend arriving 10-15mins before class to allow yourself time to check-in, store your possessions in the locker room and find a good spot for your mat in the yoga room.

How often should I take a yoga class?

This is completely up to you and depends on how much your body and mind can handle. We recommend starting with a hot yoga class 3 times a week. But for optimal results many students take class daily. Some even take multiple hot yoga classes in one day.

Are your yoga teachers certified?

Yes, all our instructors are certified Yoga Teachers. They are professionals in the industry and experts in their craft so feel free to ask them any questions you may have before or after class.

How can I contact the business?

An amazing instructor in class (Johnny) but a pushy salesman at front desk who will push a package on you by belittling and being rude and stressing you out when you check out from your first class.

Other reviews indicate this is a pattern.

I’m moving on from this studio after being a loyal member due to a recent unprofessional experience with management and a drop in standards.

​The Highlights:

The Vinyasa classes with James and Jermaine are the best and Andy consistently delivers a great HIIT workout. Most of the Bikram instructors are also excellent.

​The Issues:

​Management & Professionalism: Recent interactions with management were highly unprofessional. There is a culture of selective enforcement where certain students are targeted while major health and safety risks are ignored.

​Hygiene & Sanitation: I’ve witnessed members blowing their noses into their hands in class and rolling all over the floor without staff correction. More concerning is that floors are often cleaned with rental towels instead of proper disinfectant, creating a clear risk for staph and fungal infections.

​Inconsistent Instruction: I would not recommend Semyon’s class for HIIT; the room isn’t hot or hard, and the sequence lacks the challenge required for advanced practitioners. Bikram is much better for him.

​It’s disappointing to see such talented instructors overshadowed by poor facility oversight and unprofessional leadership.

I’ve been coming to classes since the start of the new year. I bought a 15 pack of classes. I pretty much only exclusive if we go to the hot Hit yoga. Instructors are great and such a good workout. Highly recommend coming here, especially if you’re new to the yoga Scene.
Response from the owner:Hi Desirae, thank you for taking the time to share your experience at Hot Yoga Chelsea. We are glad to hear that you have been enjoying our classes and that our instructors have provided you with a great workout!
I’m a beginner, and this hot yoga class was a great experience. The atmosphere is very welcoming and supportive, the instructor explains everything clearly and helps a lot. I really like how my body feels after class — relaxed, stronger, and more aware. I’ll definitely keep coming back.

Clean studio, great instructors! They have a new student deal - $29 for 3 classes. I went twice this week and my second time going, I already felt a difference in what I can do. Instructors let you take your time so you can rest if anything is too hard. So excited to come back 🙂
