Hot 8 Yoga

Hot 8 is a solid place for hot yoga with excellent facilities. Offering a chilled eucalyptus face towel, complimentary shower towel, toiletries in the locker rooms including deoderant and plastic bags for wet clothes are all excellent touches. The scale is tipped a little too far away from yogic and towards chic, for my taste. All the classes I've experienced have music, and it often distracts me from the present moment. The lyrical content isn't always great either-- "Creep" by Radiohead in the room before class didn't exactly fill me up with positivity. Also, going from a peaceful savasana into a locker room bumping Lizzo can be a little jarring. Their full classes are also really full--I often find my long limbs bumping walls, mirrors, and other yogis. Personally, yoga is an invitation to be more present in the world, but most of Hot 8's promotions require social media use (sometimes daily). I get it, they have to pay the rent of their huge, nice Pasadena location, but just know that some mindfulness and spirituality is being cut in the process. I'd rather go elsewhere (I like Modo more) but I live in Pasadena so Hot 8 is convenient.

I really enjoy coming to the Pasadena Hot 8 location - it’s my favorite one. The instructors are great and the front desk staff is very friendly. The bathrooms and classrooms are clean like all the locations I’ve been to.

Great faculties and friendly staff. I took Hot 8 Yoga to help reduce my anxieties. It feels great to find peace in the heat. Joe and Summer are just a few of the many great teachers here. I highly recommend it to everyone.

Everything feels right here. From the warm greetings at the front desks to the beautiful outdoor garden, there are thoughtful moments throughout the entire location. The locker rooms and showers are spacious and full of all the products you need. I appreciate the variety of classes, literally something for everyone. Over-all super welcoming to all who walk through the door.

The Pasadena studio is a clean facility with kind and friendly staff. It is easy to check in and register for classes. The locker rooms are always well stocked and tidy. I thoroughly enjoy the power 1 classes and I have already seen improvements in my flexibility after week 1. I would highly recommend this studio to any new yoga students.

I’ve tried many different yoga studios and by far this is one of my favorites. Hot 8 provides such beautiful and spacious rooms - all the instructors have such different personalities. It’s fun, it’s uplifting, and it’s challenging. A great blend! I love how I get to workout right after work and by the time I get home - I can just relax. I highly recommend this studio :) and everyone is so welcoming!

Staff is very kind and well knowledgeable about what they do. My yoga instructor this Sunday was very sweet and was clear and concise about her cues with each individual students. Thank you for the class

This is the best hot yoga studio I have ever been involved with. There's a real sense of community. The staff is always so upbeat and pleasant. The facility could not be more immaculate. The Pasadena location is truly a class act and I'm grateful to have found it.

Hot 8 yoga has been one of the best experiences I have done in a while. It’s therapeutic for my soul and I enjoy the days I come here. The energy at hot 8 Pasadena is beautiful. I have recommended this to all of my friends and they have also gotten a membership. If you’re thinking about taking a class, please do it! You will not regret it.

Hot 8 Pasadena has been nothing but smiles & sweat! All the staff and teachers are super welcoming, kind & helpful. The facilities are top notch, too. As an out of towner, I started with the welcome week & then decided to purchase a package as it’s great value & I know for a fact I’ll be back. Love the variety of classes and accepting community.
