Tried hot yoga for the first time.
*****
Bring: yoga mat, towel, and water. If you have a nonslip water cloth for when you're sweaty, it's highly beneficial to bring because you will be a bit slippery if you're sweating on the yoga mat.
There are cubbies outside for your things and to put your shoes.
FYI: don't be late, they don't let people in 5 min after start of class
******
Don't have to bring shoes, you can wear grippy socks or go barefoot.
Filtered water station behind the curtain when you're inside the class on the left.
No showers
There is restroom (behind the curtain when you're inside on the left).
There is a changing room with a shower but it's for workers only.

There are many classes of Hot Yoga. They have Hot Yoga/Pilates, Hot Yoga/sculpt, Hot Pilates/sculpt, or just Hot Yoga.
I did just Yoga, which is Hot Yoga Flow. Popular choices are I think the Yoga/pilates or the Yoga/sculpt.
This is my first time doing yoga and first time doing hot yoga, and it was pretty fun. Instructor explained things well. Nice pace and offered different variation of movements.
The music that the instructor played matched the classes pace and movements.
The room isn't too hot like other hot yoga places that I've read reviews on. Even my sister said she did a hot yoga class that was way hotter. However, for me, the temp just right for me. Especially since I'm new to yoga and to hot yoga. For me, I was sweating throughout the class. The floor in the room is also warm.
Very clean place and nice neutral colored aesthetic. read more
