I went to this studio for the first time while visiting the Ohio area. I found the front desk lady to be rude and unhelpful. Her condescending tone was a complete turn off. Customer service training is warranted. I definitely wont go back to vist this studio the next time I'm in the Ohio area.
The teachers are amazing so the classes continue to challenge and not get boring. There are also extra workshops and events to participate in.
I was a casual yogi about fifteen years ago with my father and dropped the habit in high school. After months of going through two types of physical therapy recently (for weak legs/knees and pelvic floor), I needed to stay in shape without making my issues worse. The problem? I hate exercising with a passion and need to plan a date and time to get myself to do it. I tried Modo Yoga because they had a good "first month" deal. The idea of hot yoga actually sounded really bad to me. I hate being hot and hate sweating, but hey...it was cheap and the Cincinnati location is a nice scenic drive for me.
I won't lie: the first time I went to Modo Yoga I nearly passed out. I didn't eat beforehand and didn't have ice in my water. Thankfully, the teacher/class said nothing of my nauseated sway and I felt no pressure calming down and rejoining the moves on my own time. The class is kept around 95-100 degrees (with a break or two of fans/open windows depending on the teacher). After fixing my errors (icing my water before coming and eating a snack an hour before class), I've had no issues with this discomfort. I have attended three classes a week for three weeks now and plan to do the same for the last week of my first month before getting a membership.
The Cincinnati location is attractive, has a good parking lot (Clifton location does not have free parking), and the "lobby" has a selection of yoga mats, pants, towels, and other yogi goods for sale. Prices are a little high compared to what you can get on Amazon, but at least it's there and the selection is good. Modo Yoga has an online schedule where you can either sign up for classes up to a week beforehand, or in the case of the regular hot yoga sessions you can just show up ten minutes before class starts and join in. I sign up for every class online to make myself plan on it AND because I've attended every overbooked Roll and Flow class Mary has had since I joined. It's a myofascial release class that is so overwhelmingly helpful for those of us who have particularly angry, knotted muscles. Some say it releases stress better than a massage. This class really needs to be offered more often so more can experience it; it is EXTREMELY helpful and unique.
Save for one instructor who went a little too fast for my liking, they've all been friendly and helpful. Kathryn is by far my favorite hot yoga instructor (she consistently makes you feel welcome by reminding you to go at your own pace and take sips of water so you don't feel like you're the odd one out). Mary is great as the Roll and Flow instructor (again--seriously--offer this class more often than once a week please).
As for my hatred of exercise--I still hate being sweaty, and though I hate heat, hot yoga feels productive and soothing enough that I keep coming back. Sweating so much has made my skin noticeably softer to me and my husband, and the heat really helps soothe the muscles as you exercise to help you stretch farther and work harder with less pain or straining. Yoga is perfect for those of us who hate strength training, because you will get stronger and more flexible without the stress. The hour classes go by so quickly.
Overall, I highly recommend Modo Yoga. If you're new and thinking about joining, try out the one month and I'd recommend attending one of Kathryn's classes first so you can feel welcome while learning the way classes run. They have so many different lengths of memberships that you'll surely find something up your alley.
This is the best in Cincinnati. I absolutely love all of the instructors and it is obvious how much they live what they are doing. I always feel like I am encouraged to do the best that I can do and I am not made to feel guilty if I need to modify my poses. It is great to feel so amazing after a class at Modo Yoga! I can also choose from different locations and pick a class that suits my personal schedule. Thank you for helping me to be healthier and in touch with me again!!!
Lovely yoga studio with welcoming environment. Friendly for beginners, and anyone who is wanting to work on their practice in a fun environment. Almost all the classes are in a hot room providing deeper stretches. There are showers, locker rooms, mat and towel rentals provided. There are so many classes offered at this studio, you are bound to find something for you!
The teachers are excellent. I learn something new from each one. The studio culture is very accepting and I feel I can be myself. The schedule is great- there are multiple options. I love Modo!
This is a great place to get your yoga/pilates fix. From classes to staff, communications to customer service, everything is perfect. I would recommend this place to everyone I know!

Welcoming and accessible environment to practice yoga. Teachers never set unrealistic expectations while helping you grow in your practice.

Modo Yoga Karma Sundays is my favorite! I've brought a few friends to enjoy the meditation special session. It's a great start to your week :)

Instructors are awesome! and the classes too:) I love going to Modo to get back on track with my inner self and grounding too.
This was my first time doing Yoga, I was definitely out of my comfort zone. The Studio was first class and the employee's made me feel like I've been taking Yoga for years. Highly Recommend Trying Modo Yogo...
Beautiful studio. Friendly staff. Great variety of class and time offerings.
I started my introductory month at Modo in early April, and have fallen in love with the classes. I'm new to hot yoga and find that I get much more out of it than I have other classes in the past. I look forward to keeping my membership and continuing to learn new things about my mind and body over time. Thank you to the friendly staff and who have created such a "warm" welcome environment. Namaste. AC.
LOVE Modo Yoga! I cannot say enough great things about it. Awesome team and facilities. I started it out of curiosity from a Groupon and have been hooked ever since, going 2 years strong now. Best workout for the body and mind.

I love this place!!! I also leave feeling so much healthier as i've sweated all the stress and toxins out of my body. I also love that I can bring my Toddler boys and they really enjoy the children's classes.
Fantastic team at the Cincinnati Modo location. Very welcoming, nice environment and the class was exactly as described. Room temperature, noise level and instructors speed were all very good. I'll be back!
My all time favorite workout. I find all of the classes as challenging as I need them to be. Great for strength training, balance, detox, stretching, and best of all, my focus. I'm not a yogi (yet), but I definitely have more focus and a better attitude in everything I do after a Modo class.
Modo yoga is a beautiful ceremonial space where I have been discovering myself through my practice for more than 3 years. I had never done yoga prior to my experience at Modo but quickly felt at home and relaxed. I would not want to live without this sacred space in my life. It is truly special gift. The instructors are absolutely wonderful, too. This is a meditation space held by extremely knowledgable medicine women and men. So grateful for Modo!
The Modo studios are wonderful. The atmosphere is friendly and warm, and the teachers and staff make it feel like home. The classes are all fantastic and everything is modifiable for all. This yoga experience is truly one for everyone!
Great yoga, barre and pilates community with multiple locations. Many teachers with various styles that all will help enhance your practice in some way. Showers are available with aveda salon products too.
While I really liked the studio and the class itself, I was so impressed with and grateful for the visitor's pass. I am visiting my family from Colorado and the pass is like a dream come true. I want to be able to go to class while I'm in town, but multiple drop-ins aren't feasible. Having the option to sort of "be a member" for a week is perfect. Plus the towel and mat service...it's everything needed as a traveler. The pass brought me in to the studio far more than I would have otherwise, and I'll definitely be back next time I'm in town! Thank you for taking care of out-of-towners!
Modo yoga studio is my favorite place to go! their teachers are the best. it has a cute boutique and is always clean. they also have environmentally friendly products. Ive never heard anything other than positive comments about this business and the owners are genuine salt of the earth people! thank you modo for making me so happy.
