I don't remember it having been heated in years past but i love a little sweat. Maddy and I came here last Tuesday after work and then again this morning on a Sunday am. They have lots of great class options but 11 am Sunday flow was definitely my favorite.. I mean what better way to end the weekend? The music in class was amazing and the focus on movement to breathe totally set the tone for the rest of the day. If I lived in SF, I'd definitely become a member. They have a few different locations and tho I have yet to check any of the others out, if they're anything like SF YOGA FlOW on Union St, I'd highly suggest! The studio has big glass windows and is perched on the second floor on the corner of union, so the space is filled with light and greenery from the trees on the street.

The aesthetics really added to the space as well. I really liked the layout of the room the class was held in, and the large windows, which allowed in a lot of natural light and a view of the trees outside were a nice added touch.

Located in Marina District in San Francisco, I took the Hot 60 class. It's upstairs from a laundry…read moreplace. Not sure what the other classes are like but this was taught by Rick, like an ashtanga style class for 60 minutes and a few of the hardest moves removed. Still a tough class and most poses and done twice. The temperature of the room was 108F, widely attended with around 24 students. 40% of them left around 15 minutes before the class ended. Yes, it's hot and it feels good. Yes you feel like you're going to die. But you'll feel so alive afterwards. Rick is a great teacher and provider clearly and timely guidance. A plus is the lush garden view in the window. If I come to SF, this is a must. I didn't bring yoga mat due to traveling, I recommend to bring a towel to sweat on. The floors are the soft martial art type floors. Love Body Temp Yoga!

Recently restarted my fitness journey (and started yoga/pilates). Tiktok had done it for me where I…read moresee all the girlies go to hot pilates- so guess what I did... I looked up hot pilates and body temp seems to be one of the very VERY few places to offer hot mat pilates in SF. I booked my first class with Patty and ever since I've been locked in. Patty's flow is smooth and challenging. She offers modifications and compliments when we most need it. The studio is small and there is only 1 class happening at a time. They have changing rooms and they also have 1 bathroom but no showers so be ready to baby wipe your self if you have work afterwards or go home to shower because you will be hot and sweaty after. (I hope this review does not make it challenging for me to book Patty's classes ah!! Patty if you'r reading this, I am shy and would like to hear more hip hop songs lol)

There is really a sense of community and it is welcoming to new students. The classes are generally challenging but doable for most levels and I like that the flow is relatively predictable so you can catch on.

Yoga mat are available to rent for $3 and you can store your mat at the studio if you're a member as well.

I took a class with Roy that I thought would be chill but ended up being one of the fastest paced yoga classes I've ever taken and a killer workout at that. The room where the class that I took was held was spacious, but it also appeared to be a full class, as we worked out shoulder to shoulder, which really demonstrates how effective and popular the yoga practice is here.

My favorite amenity: showers in the bathroom, so I can go straight from yoga to whatever's next. With all that said -- don't expect bougie extras. The space could use a deep clean and some upgrades. Honestly, that doesn't deter me; I'm here for the yoga, not the ambiance. If you need it to feel like a spa, this isn't that -- head to the Marina instead.

3.5 stars. I did two week unlimited and took about 18 classes. I liked most of the instructors, and…read morefor the most part vibes were friendly if not polite. Main issue is cleanliness. The studio needs a deep clean (or two) as the baseboards are filthy in the studio and in the two weeks I was there the floors continued to be dirty and only "cleaned" by a very brief mopping inbetween classes. I've been to many studios, but the lack of removing the massive trails of sweat in between classes was not exactly hygienic. The bathroom as others have said also had pools of bodily fluids and hair. I understand it's a messy practice but employing someone whose role is to clean vs manage front desk and teach is paramount. Whatever they're doing now is not enough. This place needs an overhaul in the cleanliness department. I also didn't love that there was no gentle reminders for people who strayed off course for 26 & 2, going late during balancing postures, grunting, and ignoring the rule to breathe through your nose. A few bad apples ruined the bunch for me most classes. One in particular would *always* start his pose 30 seconds after she'd cued it. In my opinion that's something the instructor should've called out, especially when we were balancing. Overall I'll be looking elsewhere for a heated studio but hope this place finds its footing. There are some great people there.

Now that TruFusion closed, I've been desperately seeking a new yoga studio…read more Some things that are important to me when finding a yoga studio: 1. Being accepted for all that I am in that very moment, on and off my mat. 2. Teachers that don't just instruct, they truly teach. (This is Amber! She is an amazing guide for practice.) 3. Creative flows/poses that have the option to take it up a notch, or not. 4. Community. A space where everyone feels like they can be their authentic selves. 5. I feel lighter than I came in - mentally, emotionally, and physically. Yoga Shala offers all this and more. You'll get stronger mentally, emotionally, and physically if you continue to practice here. I've been filled with so much gratitude knowing that YogaShala is just 3 blocks from my bed - meaning I can roll out of bed and get movement in. If you are around Richmond or surrounding area and you are looking for a heated yoga studio, I highly recommend this space. They offer first month unlimited for $50 which is a TOTAL steal. Come move with this beautiful, local studio and find your inner strength and peace!
