The review is purely regarding their teacher training program…read more I signed up to do a certification course in MAT Pilates. Everything seemed to be going fine until the day of the 'Hat Trick' which is basically a day where they quiz the whole group by asking various questions you have learned or demonstrating teaching technique. I will say that the questions were not created equal. There were super easy questions and then ridiculously hard questions. As it turned out I was the one who got all of the hard questions on this day. The teacher on this day was named Jessica and she asked me a question I didn't know and I finally said I don't know please move on to someone else. And she wouldn't do it. She kept pressing me and pressing me until it was so embarrasing I got up and went to the bathroom and cried. I complained to Kelly one of the women in charge of the studio and program and I said how humilating of an exprience this was and how I did not feel prepared through the program and she basically responded with sorry you feel that way hope to see you again. Needless to say I didn't finish the program and I did not feel I had the support from any of the staff. I feel I should have been refunded for the program and treatment there. So if you're thinking of attending this program for teacher training I don't recommend it at all. Yoga Works provides a much more thorough and understanding teacher training program.

I did hot8yoga for a year and it's really top of it's class. If you're into the whole "rise and…read moregrind" or influencer kind of mentality, you'll fit right in. The rooms are consistently hot, the hottest I've been to in my 10 years of practice, the instructors are amazing, the staff are friendly, the showers and bathrooms are clean. The entrance is not difficult to find, it's very obvious. Just give yourself extra time the first class. After a year, I decided to leave for a few reasons. It's too corporate. In their emails, they made it seem like I had to switch to monthly but it turns out I could have kept my old rate for the yearly cost without switching. Why do they offer so few 26&2 time slots in a hot yoga studio? It's too hot for me. Hot yoga, what else did I expect, right? Well, it's a funny thing to point out, but I felt like I didn't see improvement in my own abilities because the heat and humidity made me too flexible. And doing weights in this heat? What? Why? It seems like chasing the next trend. Parking felt like a hassle. It won't be an issue for you if you can walk here. You only get 2 hrs and have to pay after that. The issue is that if you do a 90 min class, and arrive early, and have to drive up to and back down from the 8th-9th floor (you have to park at the very top of the structure), then that leaves you very little time for recovery and showering/rinsing off. Definitely a top studio, definitely great instructors, staff, and showers. Parking isn't great and I wish they had more 26&2 options. It just wasn't for me.

If you love INTENSE workouts, microdosing pain for your greater fitness, and luxury feeling…read moreamenities - this place is for you. HOWEVER, Yoga 8 is not for the faint of heart or for folks who are just getting started. The energy here - from the staff, the rules, the parking - is serious. People here are friendly, but intense. The front desk folks are incredibly helpful and empathetic. I truly cannot give enough stars for the hard work they do. The place is spotless, they offer fresh towels and yoga mats, and their work is impeccable. Every teacher I've had is part coach, part preacher, part fitness instructor. If you value having someone yell motivational platitudes over the music while you're holding a squat, you'll enjoy this class. However, sometimes I do get triggered/overstimulated by how hot they keep their rooms and how intense every workout is. Sometimes I wished Yoga 8 could offer more onboarding/less intense options for people who are new to the studio/fitness journey. The main drawback is the parking. Never in my life have I needed to get two *different* validations from two *different locations* in order to park in the garage. You have to get validated by the machine on the 9th floor FIRST and then by the studio after. I do feel like this is a liability for the studio! The classes are really hard and sometimes I feel incredibly lightheaded after class. Requiring students to march up a precarious flight of stairs (you take the elevator to the 8th floor and then walk up from there to the 9th floor) after they've dehydrated themselves during class leaves their students in a slightly dangerous situation. I wish the studio owners could work out a better deal with their building.

Her studio is thoughtfully designed, always spotless, and filled with a fresh, inviting energy. Each session feels like a semi-private experience, with Marisol offering just the right amount of personalized guidance to fine-tune your technique. More than a teacher, Marisol is a role model. She built her business from the ground up while raising four children, all while remaining a steady presence in the gym attached to her studio. She's the kind of person you can rely on--always present, always helpful. Long before it became a trend, Marisol was championing strength training for women, proving through her own example that fitness is about empowerment. Her studio, Breaking Parallel, welcomes all fitness levels, with her experience allowing for intelligent, effective modifications tailored to each client.
