Sweat Yoga

Come EARLY, even 15-20 minutes before class, not only to be able to find parking but also to check in (there is a screen by the front desk) and, most importantly- to find and secure a spot for your mat! All the other reviews pointing out how packed the class is are correct. Sweat Yoga needs to change that. Especially in a hot room, you want enough space to move your body freely. They maximize profit by squeezing as many people as possible into a hot, sweaty, medium-sized room. I've tried CorePower Yoga (both locations, on 2nd Street and Wilshire), and their classes are much less crowded. The instructor, Isabel Galler, was excellent; she knew what she was doing and how to keep us motivated and focused. She guided us with her voice soft but firm voice. Are you in good shape? Hot Yoga will humble you really quickly! I had to leave the room for a minute about three times to catch a breath and cool my body a bit. At the end of the flow, you get a cold, wet, small towel to help your body cool down and recover. I definitely felt rejuvenated after the session. The women's bathrooms and showers can get crowded. There are lockers in the women's restroom with a lock and code. The customer service at the front desk could be better. As I walked in, I wasn't greeted in any way. Street metered parking: If you come to the 6:30 AM class, you will find parking quickly and can put money in the meter at 8 AM so that parking will be free.

SWEAT YOGA is amazing. The wonderful front desk yoga women and all the teachers -- like Ashley -- so warm and welcoming! AND they don't keep the room so freakin' hot you feel like you'll pass out. I LOVE Sweat Yoga in Santa Monica!

Sweat is the best yoga studio I’ve ever been to. From the challenging and expressive workouts, to the brick wall and candle-lit ambience, to the small details that make the studio unique like the cold towel at the end of class and being able to bring your dog (you leave them in the lobby and the front desk workers keep an eye on them). I really love all this studio embodies and joined after my trial. I highly recommend trying this place out, you won’t regret it!

Highly recommended! Such kind people, helpful and patient instructors, and beautiful facilities. You guys are awesome. Thanks so much!

This is my favorite Yoga Studio by far. I have tried many, and the vibe, the teachers, the music, the sound system, the lighting, the fact that there are no mirrors, it all makes this my favorite place to be.
