I have been doing yoga for close to thirty years. probably 40 different instructors or more. Every experience left me feeling uplifted and glad I had gone with the exception of the hot yogalaties class at this location. I had been to the location a couple of years before and was happy with it. The problem started at the beginning when the instructor gave a passionate plea to speak up about all the awful stuff going on in the country. I ignored it. To be fair I was happy with the class tempo, music, and degree of difficulty. The class ended with a repeat of political activism and shaming if you might not hold those same opinions. I quietly left class but the instructor was at the desk as I put on my coat. I quietly told her I know she noticed I left early, and that I was used to yogis that left us uplifted with quotes from poets, philosophers , or other yogis. That I felt she was giving a political lecture. She vehemently said " Yoga is political". But i feel it is spiritual not political, or at least should be. I was a drop in so maybe the members like this but if you plan on going to this location just be for warned. I was so put off and mad instead of the feeling of love and peace yoga has brought me over the years. read more

I don't usually leave reviews (I know I should more for the businesses I love) but felt the need to after seeing Stephanie S.'s review. Not only is her review very misleading (because I was there at said class) but she wasn't honest about her behavior (which was embarrassing for her). Every class begins and ends with motivational quotes. Take what resonates and leave what doesn't. Just because something isn't relevant to her life (how lucky) doesn't mean it isn't for someone else. She did not leave quietly, I got to hear her huff & puff and leave class early. I thought that was the end of it but she waited out in the lobby to confront the instructor & raised her voice enough about her Asian American family that came here "the right way" (crazy to assume someone else didn't) that she had to be asked to leave. Now I attend Bruna's class almost every week & always leave feeling empowered & strong. She is an amazing instructor & knows her stuff & I see it every class with how many members love her & look forward to her class. Anyways we love you Bruna & I will always recommend her & all the instructors at Midlo Hot Yoga & Wellness. read more

It's my favorite yoga studio. The instructors are excellent, and the heat makes it a much better work out. Everyone who works there makes you feel like family. It's life-changing!! read more

Unbelievably Amazing! I truly love this place and VERY HIGHLY recommend it for all levels. Today was my second time in Emily's class and it was perfect. What I really love is as a "one time drop in" I wasn't treated like an outsider. I often will do drop in while traveling an get treated like a first timer not at HHY! If you are worried about about spacing and COVID then should be your first choice. There is plenty of room and the place is immaculate. I also love the fact I am able to shower afterwards unlike some other places because of COVID spacing restrictions. Namaste! read more

Best yoga studio in Richmond! I've been visiting the studio since it opened in 2014, usually two or three times weekly. Really chill, friendly atmosphere, with diverse classes accommodating different levels of challenge. Kind staff both at the desk and in the classroom. So helpful! read more

Through a yelp event my boyfriend and I decided to try hot yoga again. We had previously been to another hot house yoga studio in Norfolk. Apparently hot house yoga studios are everywhere in VA and family owned! The staff at the studio is incredibly friendly and we were given a quick verbal tour. I went into the ladies locker room, retrieved a full size locker for my things, filled up my water bottle and went into the room. A perk I noticed about the water fill station is that they have both water fountains as well as sensor bottle fillers which is really lovely and environmentally conscious. The class itself was very fast paced but the instructor, equipped with a hands free microphone reminded the class to take breaks if necessary and also included easier variations of poses for those who were beginners. As the class went on the studio got much much hotter. Make sure to be well hydrated and eat something before you attend a class. Another tip: you must bring your own mat but they do provide mat towels as well as face towels. Pro tip: bring a change of clothes if you're running errands after- you will be soaked in sweat. I bring clothes and even another bra and underwear. Also I like to bring face wash, a wash cloth and moisturizer to clean my skin after such a grueling sweat sesh. It's a great chance to get your face nice and clean after your pores are open and ready for a good cleaning. The locker room/ bathroom is also equipped with 5 shower stalls, hair dryers, mouth wash, hair ties and q-tips for those that need to get ready and go. I think that's a really nice perk! All in all it was a great experience!! This was a great Saturday afternoon treat! read more

I really thought I would be an occasional visitor to HHY in Midlo. Free first class, fire sale price for the first month, fabulous studio, and friendly staff quickly made this place my go-to. The "Hot" in Hot House is no joke - it's truly hot. Instructors use the heat, ambiance, and their expertise to support and inspire every level. read more

It has taken me nearly three years to write this review but I'm finally doing it! I am a musician and have lived all over the US. Every time I move to a new place I find my yoga studio. I can say first hand this is the BEST hot yoga studio I've been to. This was also my first yoga studio ever. Everyone was so kind and they walked me through what to expect. They also took time to get to know me. I didn't know many people when I first moved to Virginia and this supplied me with a lovely oasis. The facilities are clean and I always left feeling rejuvenated! Hot house yoga was definitely one of my favorite things about living in Virginia. I highly recommend! read more

So good!! The location is easy to find if you know it's in the Kroger shopping center. (I actually got rerouted by Siri a few times and ended up off roading a bit to get on the right road) There's plenty of parking and I felt very welcomed as I stepped inside. The staff was super friendly and engaging. They handed me towels and a Manduka Mat cover; blocks and straps are also available for your use. The room was quite big and it seemed very clean. If you're expecting sweat smells I definitely didn't find any - and I'm pretty sensitive. There didn't seem to be a class before ours so that may have helped Class was amazing. Challenging. HOT. Sweaty. The instructor had plenty of modifications ready for beginners while able to speak to advanced yogis. The only reason I am giving 4 stars - and I wish I could give 4.5 stars- is that the background music was a little too loud and made it difficult to hear the instructor at times. I noticed a few people looking around hoping to get visual cues as they may have missed what the instructor was leading. After what seemed like a year in poses ranging from simple cat cow to back bends, twists and even inversions - i was ready for savasava! I felt like I just had my pores and every skin cell cleansed. I was super relaxed. And sweaty. I'd definitely recommend hot house yoga to my friends! Simply a great way to change up a work out routine read more

HOLY HUMIDITY. I came into Hot House one wknd while I was away from my regular hot yoga studio. Everyone was super friendly, gave me the tour, and showed me where to go. They have one room that immediately upon entering you wonder if it was a mistake. You're basically doing yoga in a sauna; the heat and the humidity put the room at or above 105 degrees. The air was palpable. I find that level of heat actually debilitating where one finds it difficult to struggle for breath. My yoga studio heats no more than 90 degrees, which I prefer because you still sweat your butt off, but instead of trying to gasp for air the whole time, your focus is going deeper and longer into poses and challenging yourself. The class sizes are quite large and the instructor has a head microphone; a little corporate gym-like for me. Lights on. Mirrors in front of you to distract you from your practice. I don't know, I think I'm used to just more of a controlled breath, zen-focused practice. I don't want to look at myself in a mirror and I don't want to struggle to breathe. I think perhaps this atmosphere may work for some people, but there's no way I could make this part of my daily routine. It's too incredibly hot here. read more

Recently started taking yoga classes. I have Been going to the gym for years now but i have to say yoga gives you so much flexibility and core strength.... having the class hot as a saunna is even better. Took morgans, brunas, meagans and marys class. I have to say they are wonderful teachers and being new to yoga they really make you feel welcome and help you throughout class if needed to. read more

Outstanding class for a levels. I'm a beginner and the instructors are very good with talking through the different poses. Very clean and if you buy a package of classes the price is super competitive. read more

I have been going to Hot House for about 6 months and I love it!! The instructors are SUPER knowledgeable and I love how they sequence the yoga poses. I always leave feeling better than when I walked in and my stress level has been literally cut in half. I recommend Hot House for all fellow yogis. read more

I love this yoga studio! Great instructors and great for ANY level of yoga. The hot house classes kick your butt and give you an amazing workout! The instructors are kind and very helpful! read more

The studio is clean, the staff abundantly happy and helpful and the classes (and instructors) are perfection. I had previously tried hot yoga with another studio in Richmond and ran disgusted out of the building. The smell, the unbearable heat, the intense sessions that no "normal" human could follow. My experience with Hot House was 100% better and made me excited to return. The studio is well equipped with amenities for everyone - men, women, beginners, advanced. The studio is so clean and has no smell. There is plenty of space for all. The classes allow for an individual track and experience with direction to push harder, if you dare. The heat is appropriate for both the healing aspect of the classes, but also so you can do the moves and not slide off your mat. I would recommend one of their trial offers if you aren't sure but do try it. You won't be disappointed! read more

Great selection of classes for all yogis. I love the candlelight yoga class. It is relaxing and for me, I look forward to attend at the end the long workday. All of the staff are friendly and welcoming for all the levels of practicing yogis. read more

I recently moved to VA for a short 6 weeks and needed to find a temporary hot yoga studio for my time there. After trying a Bikram studio that wasn't for me, I came to this studio and immediately fell in love. The staff was incredibly friendly and welcoming and helped me feel right at home instantly. I took my first class before buying a package to see how the class was- needless to say I immediately bought an unlimited package after taking a class from the wonderful instructor, Kat :). This place is AMAZING. The flow classes and stability classes are both challenging and great, the instructors are great, and the studio (including the yoga room, bathrooms, etc.) are kept extremely clean. I would not hesitate to tell anyone to go to this studio if you are looking for a place to sweat. Another bonus is that there are multiple Hot House studios in VA, and if you buy a package, you can use it at any other location. I was able to take classes at the studio on Henrico street as well, and was just as impressed with this location. I give this business 5+++++ stars!!! read more

A truly beautiful studio - I have visited many studios and really love the floors and lighting here. Instructors and staff are amazing, welcoming to new and experienced practitioners. A much needed addition to the Midlothian area. If you want to get in shape, lose weight, and feel good about the process too - definitely try Hot House! read more

Clean, modern studio with showers and towels are provided! Always warmly greeted by staff and always walk out of class with a smile!
