Yoga College of India is a popular hot yoga studio offering a classic 90-minute series at an affordable rate. The studio boasts a relaxing atmosphere, perfect for experienced practitioners who prefer a hot and clean environment. While some may find the constant movement of instructors distracting, the studio's many fans appreciate the variety of teachers and sense of community. With Bikram yoga, students can benefit from improved flexibility and reduced issues with their wrists and knees. The studio's owner, Tony, is kind and welcoming, making it a beloved destination for many yogis.
Used a class pass at this hot yoga studio with my daughter and enjoyed the class. Be warned that it is hot yoga so not for the feint of heart. The class was 90 minutes long so the extra time made it harder. I admit that during the last 1/2 hour, I was itching to leave. Thankfully that's when the resting poses come in. The heat does add to the workout and heats up your body. I need to get more acclimated to the temp! Lots of fun, I can see why folks enjoy it!
I really appreciate this studio for the chill vibes, affordable rate, and availability of the classic 90 minute series. The teachers barely help at all and some have some weird things they do that are a bit distracting (like moving constantly while seated or specific verbal patterns) but if you're an experienced practitioner who just wants someone to say the words in a hot and clean room, this is the studio for u.
I have been going to yoga here for many years and I love it. Bikram is a really great practice for me because I have issues with my wrists and knees and this has kept me from having issues (when I go regularly) Tony is the owner and he is very kind. I love the community and the variety of instructors. I wish there were more times available so I could make it to more classes but since the pandemic the schedule changed. I LOVE this place!
