If I can do it you can too

I first started at HYI two years ago and I’m so glad I did. I didn’t know if I could do it, but the instructors are very helpful and guide the classes in a way that’s easy to understand. For me, it’s a great way to “de-stress” and come back to my true self. Thank You, HYI.

It is the only truly hot yoga studio anywhere.

only truly hot yoga studio.

It is the only truly hot yoga studio anywhere.  I have been a member of Hot Yoga Inc since they first opened in the Northgate neighborhood of Seattle. The hot room and excellent teachers drew me in at first, but it’s the wonderful results that made me a regular practitioner for all these ten or so years. When the Northgate studio closed, I, like many others, was heartbroken. It was like losing a close friend. I tried every other yoga studio in a half hour radius from my house and in the end I just decided there was nothing at all close to the heat and the teachers at HYI, so now i drive to Mill Creek. Yup I drive from North Seattle to Mill Creek all the time specifically for HYI.

I tried every “hot” yoga class around and honestly this studio is the ONLY truly hot studio. Hot and sweaty, just the way we want it. I am an avid skier, backpacker, hiker, and I’m an ASL Interpreter for a living. I need my body in tip top shape, and I credit HYI for keeping me strong and healthy. Power, Hatha, Sculpt…..all my favorites in a hot, infrared, and humid heat, to really level up your workout and your health. 🙏

Yoga fixes everything

Yoga fixes everything

Yoga fixes everything. I am perpetually physically unbalanced from cycling. Without yoga I’d be Quasimodo. I like the instructors at Hot Yoga Inc. They consistently offer solid classes without excessive spiritualism yadda yadda. Too much of that would send me packing. Hot Yoga Inc is hot. Sometimes it is way too hot for me, but it must be generally OK given that I never leave class and I keep coming back year after year after year, etc. It is good for a cleansing river of sweat and great for loosening up hammies, shoulders, and calves (for a biker/hiker body). My advice to anyone reading this… come to Hot Yoga Inc, expect it to be challenging, and don’t quit.

a place for positive community with friendly people

friendly people

This is an uplifting experience…..a place for positive community with friendly people, lively and fun workouts of great variety, and a definite sanctuary for health and fitness. I was a college rower, then an avid distance runner, then a triathlete.  Fitness, exercise and results from those efforts has always been important to me.  Six years ago my general practice doctor shared with me the idea of hot yoga.  I knew this discipline was excellent for strength, balance and flexibility…..and the added benefit of heat to encourage sweating was ideal for my workout regimen.  So, I gave it a try at Hot Yoga, Inc.  What I came to appreciate was the positive energy of a studio full of like minded people —- from all walks of life —- and the outstanding instruction and leadership by the many talented staff instructors. I can not be more thankful that this outstanding studio is available seven days a week.

I feel so much happier now and have way more energy

happier

I had gone through some things in my life that had me feeling down and not happy with my physical appearance, and the dreary weather had me longing for the sun.  I joined Hot Yoga Inc. on 12/6/2022. As of 2/13/23 I’ve completed 52 classes.  I feel so much happier now and have way more energy! I already see changes in my body.  My husband even noticed the changes in me and even joined me for class.
I’ve lost 7 lbs. It feels so good to like your body. I love it, love it love it.

I look forward to practicing and I’m very happy to have joined HYI!

I consider Hot Yoga to be my “Happy Place” – 70 Years Old Man

happy place
I’m 70 years old, and for almost 20 years hot yoga has benefited my physical and mental well-being. I retired five years ago, and now I go almost five times a week. I consider Hot Yoga to be my “Happy Place” and I feel relaxed and at home in the studio. It doesn’t matter your level, the instructors are great and create a positive atmosphere that makes you feel welcome and the classes enjoyable. I always feel refreshed and rejuvenated after a class. Namaste!

Terry P. – No Longer Have Back Problems

No Longer Have Back Problems

On January 8th, 2015 I took my first yoga class at Hot Yoga Inc. Before I started doing yoga I had arthritis and hurt all the time. I no longer have back problems or pain. It all has to do with Hot Yoga Inc.  Jan 8th, 2023 was my 8-year anniversary at the studio.  I just completed my 679th class! I carry much gratitude for HYI. Thank you Linda for having such a beautiful studio.

Shawn – Healed from Ruptured Disc and Torn Muscles

Ruptured Disc

An accident in 2019 left me with a ruptured disc and torn muscles in my leg. This resulted in surgery in 2019 and 2020. I was facing another surgery in 2022 but my PA, a student at HYI, recommended hot yoga as a preemptive measure. The first class was torturous but afterward, I felt better than I had in years.  After nine months, I’m clear of needing a third surgery. While weight loss wasn’t a goal, I’ve lost 36 pounds.

I’m very grateful for the vastly improved health and cannot recommend Hot Yoga Inc. enough.

Testimonial from Vikram

I work about 12 hours on the PC. Before yoga I used to get pain in my wrists and my forearms. With regular yoga, 1 to 2x’s a week, I don’t get the pain anymore and I feel a lot better.

Testimonial from Diana A

Hatha lets me tune in, chill out and shape up — all at the same time. It has that relaxing element, but it doesn’t mean you’re not gonna break a sweat 🙂

    Easily the best yoga studio I've ever been to. Once you adjust to the heat it's tough to go to another studio to get the same feeling afterwards. Can't recommend enough!
  • Avatar Ryan M ★★★★★ a month ago
    I have been attending this studio for a few years now..and yes it's hot and very challenging. If you are looking to take your fitness and mental toughness to the next level look no further than Hot Yoga Inc. Mill creek. The complaints … More are usually heat related Im seeing. I hope they keep the temperature as it always has been..it offers the public a unique challenge. If the heat is too much maybe consider a easier class. This staff and facility are the best!! Thank you HYMC!)

    Hajera’s Breathwork class last night was one of the best experiences of my life! She led such an incredibly healing and powerful experience! The music was awesome and the vibe was so great! HIGHLY recommend!
  • Avatar Marina Kapor ★★★★★ 2 months ago
    I absolutely love this studio. They offer a variety of classes. My favorite instructor is Hajera. She is truly amazing and you can feel the energy in the room with her lead. The studio is hotter than most, I find the benefits of this to … More be wonderful. Not only is it manageable for anyone but you truly feel amazing afterwords.
    The community that comes to hot yoga is very welcoming as well.
  • Avatar Sarah Sabo ★★★★★ 2 months ago
    This is by far my favorite studio. The teachers and the staff are amazing. The yogis are too.
  • Avatar Gauri Aeri ★★★★★ 2 months ago
    I’ve been going to HotYoga Inc on and off for the past few years. The yoga teachers there are amazing and I would recommend this place to any one who enjoys a good hot yoga session.
  • Avatar Stephanie Seiler ★★★★★ 2 months ago
    Yes it is hot. Yes it can be challenging. Yes, those of us who love this are slightly insane. But working through the insanity in the hot room makes for a much more calm and balanced life in the rest of the world. Learning to be okay with … More being uncomfortable, finding out how to let go of your ego and just accept what is in the moment isn't easy, but if you are willing to work toward this you'll have more joy in your day and sleep better at night. The instructors here are all fabulous and the students create a caring and accepting community for any and all who take their place on a mat. I've tried many of the hot yoga studios in the Seattle area and am thankful to have found Hot Yoga, Inc.
  • Avatar mindy cannon ★★★★★ 2 months ago
    I have been practicing at this studio for over 12 years. I absolutely love the location of this spacious and very clean studio. The yoga community that has been built here over the years is amazing. I’ve practiced at other studios, but … More you will not find the same infrared heat, humidity and fabulous instructors that this studio has to offer.
  • Avatar Brittnay Gonor ★★★★★ 3 months ago
    Love this place and the community!
  • Avatar Jessica Berg ★★★★★ 3 months ago
    Once you learn about infrared heat and the benefits you understand why it’s more intense. It’s a deep penetrating heat and you won’t want to practice anywhere else.
    I don’t agree with some of the reviews on here, I watch some people struggle
    … More but there’s a loyal following of yogis here. I love the strong energy, my advice is pick a spot not directly under the heat and stay close to the door.
    The more frequent you go the easier it gets! Once I started practicing at least
    3x a week I actually got better. Morning classes are my favorite, I personally can’t eat before class and was trying to drink too much water right before which resulted in feeling sick.
  • Avatar Viswanath B ★★★★★ 10 months ago
    Amazing. The teachers, routines and the participants are all so good. Enjoying the program so far.
  • Avatar Irit Pandey-Khaire ★★★★★ 11 months ago
    When I first started hot yoga several years ago, I tried many yoga studios and Hot Yoga Inc is by far the most superior in the PNW!! The heat, humidity and variety of classes keep me coming back! The teachers and owner are absolutely amazing! … More If you want a life changing experience and an amazing workout come to Hot Yoga Inc! You won’t be disappointed!!
  • Avatar Hisano E ★★★★★ a year ago
    I really enjoyed this hot yoga studio!
  • Avatar ALEJANDRO ★★★★★ a year ago
    The Hatha here...TOP NOTCH. If you can handle 110 degree REAL haute yoga you will not be disappointed. Please treat yourself to a class and experience the fun/benefits...the level of quality is apparent.
  • Avatar Felicia Dang ★★★★★ a year ago
    I love this place . I started over a month now. I can't get enough it. The staff are super nice.
  • Avatar spooky katt ★★★★★ a year ago
    This place holds such a deeply sentimental place in my heart.I've come to associate this studio with deeply personal transitional periods of my life where a spiritual "rebirth" is necessary:Every heartbreak; every emotional, … More spiritual, physical breakdown in which I've felt completely and utterly alone and lost and hopelessHot Yoga Inc has been there with that dang 10 classes for $10 deal which has served as an enticing gateway to me picking myself up off the floor (literally) and getting my sh*t together again.I can unequivocally state that this studio has saved my life- and very likely, multiple times.When Washington state was abruptly placed on Covid house arrestI grieved for the loss of Hot Yoga Inc like I was losing a beloved friend and a mentor.I spent all year rotating between feelings of bitterness in isolation and anxiously awaiting some nightmare revelation that the financial strain on our small buisness owners would be too much = indefinite closure.*Thank GOD* that bad news never came.The instant I learned that their studio doors were open to the public once again, (with limitations)I cried tears of joy like a crazy person. 🤪I've tried other studios over the years,They're either1)Not hot enough,2)Their flooring is inappropriate/too hard3) Not enough mirrors, and/or they don't go low enough to the floor level which makes it virtually impossible to visually track posture and progress within pose4) Weird vibesThe only drawback with Hot Yoga Inc is that their prices for classes (even prior to Covid ) leave a significant strain on my budget,and are often double the costs in comparison to their local competitors.The location being in a premium real estate is likely a major factor(Millcreek town center)and after a year of being closed, it is understandable that they had to raise their rates even higher to recuperate costs.Perfectly understandable, but YIKES! its still a big ouch.So for now,unfortunately I'm sucking it up with a different studio during the week and I'll treat myself with periodic drop ins on the weekends when I have the extra $$ to splurge.
  • Avatar Jerry Olsen ★★★★★ a year ago

  • Avatar Kyle Maple - Realtor ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Love this yoga studio! If you are looking for heat this is the place to go! Awesome staff & instructors that are very friendly and encouraging.
  • Avatar Joel Lenox ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Love this place! I'd go every day if I could. The heat allows me to get deeper into the poses then I could without it and I notice a huge difference in the rate of my progress because of it.
  • Avatar Joy Hsu ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    DeeJay and Christy are my favorite instructors here!
  • Avatar Victoria Cannon ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    If you love high heat, this is the place to go! Prepare to sweat a river! Such a warm, welcoming, and friendly community - both the students and staff. The teachers are well-trained with diverse backgrounds which make each class wonderfully … More unique.
  • Avatar Lola Rose ★★★★★ 2 years ago
    Hot yoga inc changed my life and can change yours too! Being in that studio is inspiring and invigorating, the staff is welcoming and warm. I go in as I am and come out better. After my first class years ago I knew I could never give up … More this space and practice. Thank you HYI!
  • Avatar Christina Merhar ★★★★★ 3 years ago

    Great studio. Wonderful teachers and friendly community. Love this place!
  • Avatar Amanda Love ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Best yoga studio in existence! If you can’t take the heat, get out of the kitchen 😉
  • Avatar Brenda Trosset ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    I'm a beginner at yoga and I've loved learning and practicing here. The studio is clean, spacious, and the teachers are great. Power Vinyasa and Sculpt are my favorite classes and Linda, Christa, and Bridget are my favorite instructors. … More They lead intense classes but are patient and really explain proper form. The studio is extremely hot so plan on bringing 2 water bottles and a hand towel for sweating.
  • Avatar HM Goodin ★★★★★ 4 years ago
    Hot Yoga inc of Mill Creek changed my life for the better. Not only physically but mentally and spiritually. I was once in so much pain that I could not touch my toes. After starting hot yoga i gained strength, flexibility, and better … More sleep. Teachers inspired me to become a instructor and give back what had and has been given to me. The studio is clean and professionally ran. All of the teachers are great and I continually leave feeling better after every practice. Thankful to HYI always!
