I've been to bode twice and liked one of teachers I had. When I went for the second time the room where I took the class was very smelly, like a mix of sweat smells from different body parts that was really bothersome to me. That room needs desperately lots of air circulation and a good mopping on the floor every time a class is finish. Also, it might help to wash the windows not everyday but maybe once a week. Didn't see much cleaning happening while I was there. I will try one more time since I payed for the 3 classes and really need to do Bikram hot yoga but if that smell is still there, unfortunately don't know if I'll be able to stand it.
My first time here, first impression means everything. I had the class with Erin and she welcomed me with open arms. Never thought I would incorporate hot yoga into my fitness routine but it will be from now on at Bode. Facility is small but the locker room is spotless, they keep the studios very clean!
I really love the teachers here, Yarrow, Kathryn and John, Sam and others, but the front desk manager is seriously one of the rudest people I've ever encountered. She's loud, aggressive, and doesn't listen. And after she's been corrected on her errors, she has a horrible attitude. If you didn't have to deal with her, this studio would be fantastic. You'd think a yoga studio would train their staff better and create an environment of being a more welcoming, customer-centric community. But not here. Sucks, because it could be so much better.
I loved the class and experience, that I was able to enjoy through class pass, but I was charged for a mat and towel rental that I never even used or requested. I was able to get a refund today but had I not caught the email notification, I would have been charged for nothing. Great studio Just make sure to check your charges
All the teachers are exceptional! The studio may be very easy and all of the group of workers may be very pleasant and inviting.
Very welcoming--from everyone. Great instruction during class. Really cool and tough flow sequences.
Bode UES w Jenny
Jenny is an incredible teacher. She is thoughtful and her sequencing is exceptional. I will always return for her classes. Her upbeat energy and care for her students and safety in alignment is top.
My least favorite place to practice yoga. The heat system is awful, no air circulation. Classes here are way too hot, and the teachers kill you with heat instead of teaching how to create tapas(internal heat) from working muscles during practice.
Checkout Five Pillars Yoga on 92 and Madison instead! The teachers have studied with the best in the yoga community, and will help challenge you in your practice. This studio offers a variety of classes from therapeutics to hot core class. They also have a location in the Hamptons!
Great staff, friendly and upfront. The class had good energy lead by a welcoming and encouraging teacher. The studio and facilities are clean and comfortable. I enjoyed the heated floor and the non-slip towel they provide with mat rental, to place on your mat.
Been practicing here for 3 years- excellent teachers, nice variety of classes and very clean place. I love this place. Only complaint is how expensive it is ($30 a class). I understand this is a profit driven business but where is the line drawn that its over the top? Just a thought for management.

I challenge myself to 21 days of hot yoga at bode. I am done. I feel amazing. My body got so flexible and I have tons of energy. All my friends see the difference. I love it!!! Cannot wait to go to my next class. Thank you.

Extremely clean and welcoming environment. Friendly and supportive instructor who walked me through each pose of my bikram yoga class, especially being a relatively new beginner. Her teaching style made me very relaxed and confident about my abilities. A great way to end a most stressful day.
The front desk is very friendly and efficient. Changing room facilities are great (hair dryer, shampoo..). The heater in the Studio is great! It would be better if the Changing room has more space!
I had been out of shape for the past few years and decided to make a change. I survived my first Hot HIIT class a few months ago by doing the modified variations of exercises I found challenging. You really do build up strength quickly. I progressed from one class a week to two a week and now three a week! I never thought I would be able to complete a whole class and now I can't imagine my day without it. The instructors also send you a thank you email for attending class. It may sound silly, but it really does mean a lot to me. They clearly understand how hard it can be to get out of the door and step into a gym. I feel noticed and appreciated! I am hooked!
Being new to the city, I started with the $40 21-day unlimited pack which is a great deal. I loved the classes and the varied times and locations were incredibly convenient. However, I am forced to give this studio 1 star due to the unfriendliness of not only several members of the staff but the other members of the studio as well. I was harassed on 2 occasions by other members in the locker room, at one point having a woman push me because I was turning off my phone in front of the lockers and was "in her way." The staff was unhelpful and unrecipient of questions, seeming annoyed whenever I approached the desk. I left a pair of shoes at the studio and came to ask for them from the lost and found, and the staff instead of retrieving them for me made me go into a closet where they had stuffed all the shoes in a bag and rip it open to search for mine, all while asking me "I don't understand how you leave your shoes, like how do you just leave your shoes here?" In addition, they have a rule in which if you do not sign in at the studio 7 minutes before class your spot is given to people on standby. Not only was this rule not communicated to me (later found it was at the bottom of a class registration confirmation email, which no one reads), but seems incredibly unfair to people who have a tight schedule and are still on time but not there almost 10 minutes before, which is frankly ridiculous. For all of these reasons I will not be extended to a full membership, and I recommend you don't either.
LOVEEE Bode NYC, I've been going there for about 3-4 years now and they have some of the best instructors ever. Patient, encouraging, friendly and very accommodating to your needs. I would highly recommend this place. From beginners to avid practicers. You can also go to all 4 studios! They are also very clean, and always updating their locations.
PS- my instructor Regina is absolutely amazing !
I personally think that everyone in the facility is very welcoming and helpful. I have taken the hot Bikram class with a number of different instructors and each time they take the time to know your name and help you with any poses that can be improved. I feel like these classes give me time for myself and I feel great right after.
This studio is pleasant, always perfectly hot (even the early AM classes) and the instructors are experts in what they do. I have never looked more forward to a fitness class of any kind than I have to these Bikram classes. The amount of classes they offer every day is also a HUGE plus for me. I am always able to fit a class in here, or at one of the other 3 studios, and mix it up with 60, 75 and 75-min/music classes. My practice has evolved and gained a fresh breeze in my sails because I was able to take here.
had a great experience. Was a bit nervous in the beginning but the instrusctors are really there to guide you and inspire you. The studio is very clean and the staff is really friendly.
I had a great experience at Bode UES! The space is big, bright and clean and the instructors are all very nice and helpful. I'd recommend this to anyone.
It was my first time doing Bikram yoga and i liked this place a lot. I took the first intro month and it was worth it. I will recommend this place to anyone who's interested in practicing Hot hathayoga.

when you practice a series like Bikram - one where the sequence of poses never changes - the teachers can especially make a world of difference! that said, i absolutely ADORE Kathryn. she has an ability to blend her knowledge of the physical body (anatomy/alignment/physics) beautifully with the true purpose of yoga (meditation/self discovery/stillness). she genuinely encourages growth and brings soul into her teaching. without question, bode UES is my favorite location. the floor plan makes the most sense, it's warm/inviting, the studios are very clean, spacious (without being too large like flatiron), light and beautiful. i adore practicing next to the large windows - it's really just lovely. also love my man at the front desk who always smiles. interesting how we really notice when people SMILE right? SMILE MORE, NYC! :) the mat rental prices are definitely crazy, but it's crazier not to just bring your own mat into the hot room. unless the money being collected for filtered water is benefiting people in africa - that's crazy too. that aside, if you practice Bikram, this is one of the best places in Manhattan to be :)
I went there today and I will give this location the benefit of the doubt because it is the weekend. But my experience will be known to others. I stopped by to check out the place as I am shopping around and I had read some geat reviews. I was ignored and left standing by the counter. The girl tended to other customers that came after me. I had to speak to her and ask her about the place and even then her response was short. I first spoke to the older lady behind the counter, she was not much help at all. She passed me down the the other girl. I did not in anyway feel welcomed. No one behind the counter nor the instructors smiled nor made eye contact. I am hoping the other locations will have better customer service.
I recently joined this yoga studio since it was conveniently located in my neighborhood.It was anything but an enjoyable experience. The floors were dirty, the bathrooms were filthy, and I could not get rid of the smell of sweat until the next day. I was very disappointed in this yoga studio as I was looking forward to a positive experience. It was anything but that. If you are thinking about coming here, think twice, three times, four times. It is a total disgrace.
I have been a fan of Bikram Yoga for 15 years. I started going to this studio about a couple months ago and can't help but notice the unprofessional atmosphere. There is a young boy that runs around telling the employees what to do in a nasty tone. As I was waiting outside the room for a class, I notice that all the customers wait an extensive amount of time because they have to wait until the boy says the room is in good condition, yet there is still sweat puddles on the floor. More issues I came across include watered down shampoo, the awful sweaty smell walking into the rooms. I thought as time went by things would change but I would not recommend this yoga studio.
Great experience with this location! The teachers are all wonderful and are great at adapting the classes to every individual without making anyone feel uncomfortable. Clean, welcoming location. While I prefer only to do Hot Yoga every once in a while- this is a great spot for those who love this style of practice. I found classes to be very convenient time-wise, as well!
Love, love these classes both Brikham and hot HIIT! All the instructors are great. I just finished up my intro month and it was well worth the price! The jump from $50 to $160 a month is a bit much though...
The minute I walked into this studio it smelled disgusting. It seemed extremely unsanitary and the room was way too hot for a standard bikram room. For some reason, someone thought it would be a good idea to install carpeted floors in a bikram studio, which makes it extremely hard to clean and get rid of bacteria. There were puddles of sweat from previous classes, which had actually seeped through my towel. The studio instructor, Natalia, was really motivational at times, but then also very aggressive and almost judgmental at others. This is yoga... We're all there to relax, get a good workout, and gain some power for ourselves through this workout. Calling people out (multiple times) in a disrespectful, hostile way, was surprising coming from a yoga instructor.
Great physical workout, but mentally frustrating. Definitely will not be returning.
I took a 1month Groupon and, although an advanced yogi, this was my first Bikram yoga testing. This place has: nice staff, clean place, good changing room space with enough showers that I never had to wait, and a variety of bikram class types with extensive schedule to fit anyone + they recently added Pilates with 2 excellent teachers! My only reason not to give a 5-star is that not all teachers are as experienced to lead you through the poses smoothly, but overall really great place if you like Bikram or just to sweat!
Very clean and well run studio. The teachers and staff are all very friendly.
Top notch Bikram yoga studio. Clean and spacious locker room. Classes vary in difficulty (know your teacher), but are all great from beginner to expert.
