The instructor followed me out of class and reprimanded me (like a child) for leaving class a little early. I am a grown adult.

I would check out HPY Philly- they have awesome heated classes, and much nicer instructors (and they are a small local business unlike CP)!

I had to grow into Bikram yoga. When I first tried the method 10 or 12 years ago, the heat…read moreoverwhelmed me, and I was still happily doing endless vinyasa classes. I went a few times, stopped, and returned years later with a different body and a much greater appreciation for this modality. Founded in 2002, Philly Hot Yoga is approaching a quarter century in Philadelphia, and that longevity is visible in the maturity of the entire operation. Following the classic Bikram method, each class moves through 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises in the same order every time. The studio offers 60, 75, and 90 minute formats, with the practice space heated to 105 degrees and 50% humidity. I leave completely soaked and usually need a while for my body to cool down, which can feel intense when you are just beginning. What once felt punishing now feels like a deep rinse, clearing out physical tension and whatever mental clutter I carried upstairs. Tucked above Sherman Brothers at 1520 Sansom Street, the entrance can be easy to miss the first time. Walk toward the shoe store, take the door immediately to the right, and head upstairs to the third floor. The building has an older Philadelphia texture, with bright paint, welcoming energy, and quirks earned over decades. I especially appreciate it when the windows are open before or after class in winter, letting cold air move through as everyone recovers from the heat. Throughout my visits, everything has been clean and tranquil, and the staff members have been kind, helpful, and flexible. I remember once forgetting a card or having some similar payment issue, and they handled it with generosity instead of turning it into a production. The locker rooms are fairly small, and the men's showers are tight, but everything necessary is there when you need to clean up and continue your day. A filtered water fountain makes it easy to refill your bottle, which is essential to feeling good after that much heat and sweat, and towels are available to rent for $2. Dan, Lauren, and Chris have all taught classes I especially enjoyed, though I have probably practiced with more teachers than I can recall from my account history. The instruction is precise and encouraging without becoming performative, which suits a sequence built around patience and sustained attention. My wrists and shoulders have absorbed too many years of planks, pushups, and pullups, so this practice has become an important counterbalance. It reaches deep into my lower back, quads, and hamstrings, helping correct the subtle forward hunch caused by years of running and sitting at a keyboard. Although the schedule also includes Yin, all levels of Vinyasa, and Hot Pilates, every class I have taken here has been Classic Hot Bikram Yoga. That sequence still feels like the studio's center of gravity. A nearly 25-year run says a great deal in a city where independent fitness businesses face constant pressure and rapid turnover. Philly Hot Yoga has endured by staying clean, welcoming, and true to itself. I love its soul, appreciate its roots, and feel grateful that a place this uniquely Philadelphia is still here and succeeding.

I usually do hot vinyasa flow classes and threw myself into something different this time, with a 90-min Bikram class led by Mia. Lots of breath work in the asanas and varations on poses from backbends (camel rather than wheel) and a nice vibe in the class. Nice little locker room and awesome pics of yogis doing complicated and gorgeous poses over the years the studio has been around. A+ for anyone in the area.

A friend invited me to join them at YogaSix and shared a free class but…read moresadly I had to cancel last minute so it took me a little while to finally get back and check out a YogaSix class. I'm so grateful to the friend that persisted and invited me again. This specific YogaSix has a wonderful owner who is so lovely and welcoming. The studio is located on the 5th floor of a building that is almost tucked away on 17th street. It can be easy to miss, and if you arrive early in the morning then the front door may be locked. Use the keypad to find YogaSix in the directory and call them, then they'll buzz you up. I've tried every class offering and have also done the monthly Sound Bath, which was lovely. The instructors are great and offer plenty of modifications and options for all levels. The hot room is definitely something to get used to but it is personally my favorite part. Actually... the cold eucalyptus towel after the workout is my favorite part but the warm room is #2. If you are looking for hot yoga, are visiting town and need to get a class in, or if you are just interested in trying something new then YogaSix is for you!

Not my favorite studio in the city, that's for sure. First of all, just finding it is a challenge. It's squeezed in between the Apple Store and another retail store. Once you do, the studio itself is fine, I just didn't love the class I took. The first 15 minutes were spent doing these awkward modified crunches which didn't exactly scream vinyasa. There was no real flow to the rest of the class, but to be fair we did do some warrior and side-plank poses I guess. Class lasted 75 minutes for maybe 50-55 minutes worth of actual yoga (especially annoying for a Friday evening class). When I was told that my savasana was wrong, I was annoyed. Then I realized that there are only two or three teachers at the center city location, and figured I should go back to my old studio. That, and they just "updated" their website...it's horrible. So, if this is a tl;dr for you, it's adequate, just not my favorite personally.
