Chesapeake Hot Yoga

So grateful to Briana Ward for keeping the doors of Chesapeake Hot Yoga (CHY) open through the pandemic, I’m sure it wasn’t easy, many studios have closed as a result. I’m so very fortunate to have the CHY community just 3.4 miles up the road.I could literally FEEL the difference in my body and mind after the first class, antidepressants don’t work this fast if ever. The studio is so clean, there are several air purifiers and the prop room has UV lights for sanitization.And then there’s Emily Thompson and her Candlelight Flow which is a GAME CHANGER! This was absolutely the best 75 minutes I’ve had in recent memory! The class was well-sequenced and very thorough — we spent a good amount of time on our back before moving on to seated postures which prepared us so well for the standing poses. Emily gave excellent cues “halfway lift, head above heart” and “ensure your foundation” (then add arms); her class was body/mind centric. I am so very fulfilled after this gem of class. Emily is a rare human and teacher, yoga is her gift, her heart, and it’s palpable.

This place is great. I wish I could go still but there are no mid day classes.

You can’t have a sign outside saying hot yoga and then it’s not even hot, like not even warm.And while I don’t like overall peppy people, the front desk people working the few times I went seemed miserable.Pros: it was quiet and spacious, not pretentious

CHY is a great studio! Bri and Kevin are amazing! All the instructors are helpful and awesome.

Can't say enough about the entire team and all of the clients. The facility is clean and tidy. I needed something new to help bridge mind and body - everyone has been welcoming, encouraging, non-judgemental from the start. Love my new yoga practice and couldn't do it without CHY!!!

I purchased the Groupon for 10 classes and am flying through them. Everyone is so friendly at the studio and the practice is excellent. I've enjoyed all of the instructors I've had so far! Jessica's hot vinyasa class is that ideal challenging/calming balance I look for in yoga practice, the music is great and she's engaging. Would def recommend!

CHY Candlelight Flow is always the perfect class to unwind yet still challenge you. I love that every class here, whether its a hot flow or light and warm or yin, its always something different and always a new challenge. The music is great also :)

Love this studio! All the teachers are so inviting and encouraging. It doesn't matter what level you are, they are there to guide your practice to the fullest. A wonderful place to come to!

Chesapeake Hot Yoga offers excellent training for both active and potential yoga instructors. The course material is applicable and relevant. The training staff is seasoned with a versatile knowledge base. The class times are great even for those who work full time. I thoroughly enjoyed the time spent studying yoga there.

DONT WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!! if you are a beginner, this is not the place for you. I have taken a couple classes here and am totally not impressed! The instructors lack tempo and flow and dont differentiate between new and old students. There are not many classes to choose from and the there is a hen house type atmosphere at the front desk ask you walk in. If you looking for a good yoga studio try hot house in hill top or Zen at lands town.
