I'd never tried hot yoga before, and a mom friend dragged me into it. NGL, the first class was pure…read moretorture. It was HOT! And challenging! ...come to think of it, the second and third classes were also pure torture, haha. But since the moves are the same each time, the learning curve is steep, and I enjoy how it forces me to focus on my body and my form. I've done various kinds of dance and exercise and at my age I appreciate how yoga works on strength, flexibility AND balance. It's a full body workout in one hour and while the heat may seem excessive or gimmicky, I can attest to the fact that between the circulatory boost and the induced sweating from every pore, it at least does wonders for the skin. This location has many students who have been going for years and you can really see how yoga has shaped their bodies--aspirational, if a bit intimidating! As a final note, the pricing can't be beat. It's less than half the cost of a pilates membership for monthly unlimited. Oh, and if you're new to this, definitely bring a towel for your yoga mat and another to wipe your face. You'll really need both! And a giant water bottle! (Cold water is available on the premises.)

I love Balance Yoga Center. This is home! This is my safe zone. Mike and all instructors are…read morefriendly, welcoming, encouraging, and professional. Our classmates are very nice to each other as well. Sometimes I forced myself to get up of my bed and go to the studio; sometimes I was excited about the exercise even on my way driving to the studio; sometimes I had a challenge day so when Mike greeting me I looked unhappy. However, no matter how I was when I enter the studio; by the time I finished the class I would be in a much better mode. My mind got clearer, my chest felt lighter, I was happier. Balance Yoga Center not only brings me physical fitness, also mental and psychological health. I am so proud to be in this community, I love Balance Yoga Center!

One of my favorite place to do Hot Yoga! I actually found this place on Groupon and it was only $20…read morefor unlimited classes for a whole week. That's honestly a steal so definitely check Groupon every now and then for amazing deals. I tried so many classes with different instructors to see which class called to me and I honestly love Hot Yoga the most. I have tried the Warm Vinyasa class and Hot Pilates as well. They were both lovely and fun classes to take but something about Hot Yoga and being in a heated room (90-105 degrees Fahrenheit) sounds so nice and soothing to me. This type of environment is believed to enhance flexibility, improve circulation, and promote detoxification through sweating. I have been doing Hot Yoga (Bikram Yoga aka 26 postures and two breathing exercises) for almost 2 months now and I truly believe Hot Yoga has improved all of those things for me. My whole body doesn't hurt as much from sitting at the desk all day and I can actually feel myself feeling healthier and looking much happier. A tip I would like to mention is that staying really hydrated the day before a Hot Yoga class helps tremendously! Listen to how your body feels to avoid overheating. No need to push yourself to take classes everyday and to take it at your own pace!

There was a political demonstration that resulted in multiple street closures in Santana Row and I…read morewas late to a class. I'd called the studio multiple times to try and let them know that I would be late, but no one picked up the phone. I had done everything I could to do my due diligence but could not plan for the closure. Anyone with empathy would have understood. I was a member at the time, had never asked for an extension before in my history with the studio, and had no way of knowing that a political demonstration would shut down their street to foot and car traffic. When I arrived the woman at the front desk did not even care to ask if I was a member nor check to see if I'd ever requested a late arrival before. She just told me "no". It was really frustrating that she basically shrugged her shoulders and said "its policy" to not let anyone in past 5 minutes when it had been exactly 6. I understand the principle, but if it's someone's first time and they are a paid member (not ClassPass ) then they should be given a one time forgiveness. Despite canceling, I was going to give them benefit of the doubt and not leave a yelp review because they assured me they were genuinely sorry for the experience. That all changed today when I saw that I have been charged not once not twice but THREE times since this incident. Despite signing a form on the spot that day and the manager assuring me, this would not happen. I'd been charged full price of the membership 3x when I had never stepped foot in the studio ever since. I cannot tell you how frustrating it is to once again I have to go through the endless loop of trying to get a hold of someone at this business. I would never sign up here because you will never be able to know you are truly canceled.

Similar to what many of the other reviews have mentioned, the energy of the owner is unfortunately…read morepretty off putting. While you would expect a yoga studio to foster an environment of serenity, instead Cynthia was manic and agitated. There was little focus on the students and rather seemed as though she wanted to use the class to vent to us, telling random stories and anecdotes and just in general being dismissive or borderline rude when responding to students. Maybe she was having a bad day, but it was certainly not the experience that i am looking for and i will definitely be avoiding this studio in the future.

Emily was our instructor and once again made the class such a welcoming and encouraging environment. One of the main things I appreciate for the way she teaches is suggestions on how to alter certain movements if you aren't able to elongate/reach full flexibility.

The studio was also very appealing to the eye. Inside is clean, bathrooms were stocked with all the necessary items after a class, and the workout room itself was dark with red LED hues which made the class even better. Cade was the instructor that taught the class and he came in bringing all the right energy! His playlist was more of a bonus as it fit so well with the tempo of the class. Cade was able to introduce himself and allow all members to adjust/familiarize themselves with the equipment before starting the session. In addition, he recognized the new comers to the class which I thought was a nice touch towards the end which was definitely more encouraging and enticing to come back again. The class itself was super fast pace where you are alternating from the treadmill to the free weights section. Overall, if you are looking for something with high intensity workouts, this is the spot for you!

The music was good, the equipment was clean, and the whole place had a cool vibe. The only reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it felt a little crowded, and the class moved pretty fast if you're still learning how everything works. I've done a ton of workout classes similar to this and I think it'd be tough for anyone wanting to start working out if they don't already do some level of activity. It's definitely more expensive than a regular gym, so I probably wouldn't go every day, but it's fun to mix in every now and then when you want to push yourself. Definitely solid!

The instructors are amazing and the class sizes in my experience have always been small. One thing I notice is that the corners of the studio have a lot of dust otherwise the studio is clean. They also request that you take off your shoes before entering the space. There is ample parking and I haven't seen the cafe too packed or noticed it being too loud during a yoga session. There is only one wall with a mirror so if you do come late, there may be a chance where you won't be able to check your posture during yoga, but the instructors are quite nice and will help you reposition.
