I love hot yoga, I used to do it a lot in New York and I use it as a way to clear the bronchial airways and keep my lungs healthy, so I decided to give this place a try. I also invited a friend to join me and try it out. This was in January of 2020.

Pros:
Friendly front desk staff and great instructors.

Cons:
Unfortunately, it was hard to work out while trying to ignore the smell (I am being a bit polite here by using this word) of feet and the stuffy room. It is one thing that a room that is being used constantly to have a peculiar smell but as soon as I walked in through the main entrance I could smell it. I thought it was just part of the smell from the shoestand that was in the front, but as I went to the yoga room the smell got worse.

I am mindful that yoga rooms tend to have different sorts of smells from body odor, and everyone has different body hygiene, but not in an empty room. I also tried to tell myself that this was just another kind of meditation and to just power through. If this was my first rodeo I would have thought that all sweaty yoga studios smelled like that, but I have been to many hot yoga rooms and they do not.

Also, the hot room felt very stuffy, as if there were lots of dust residing under the carpeting. It was very hard to do the poses and breath deeply due to the stuffy room and the smell. When I walked out of there I felt like I needed to breath fresh air. I thought that I might have had a more heightened sense of smell that my friend, but when we compared notes we both had the same opinions about the smell and the stuffiness. However, mine was more terrifying because I am asthmatic and dust is one thing that can be a trigger, so needless to say my lungs were not happy.

Word of advice, just be prepared, especially if you buy a monthly introductory membership and cannot return after your first class, which it happened to me. I won't subject myself, or my body, to be in a room that it is already hard to begin with and then to add even more stress to my lungs by not being able to breath there.

Also, their policy does not allow for any refunds. I thought considering the circumstances, at least out of courtesy they would make an exception but this was not the case.

This studio is amazing!!!

I started coming here just over a year ago and cannot believe how much my physical and mental health has improved since then. This yoga is not easy, but they encourage you to go at your own pace and slowly you actually start to look forward to sitting in a very hot and humid room for an hour and half. Before I started, I realized I let myself become very out of shape and simply did not feel like myself anymore. My goal in the beginning was just trying to stay in the room for the whole class, which is honestly a challenge. Slowly I began feeling stronger, leaner, and even wanted to participate in other activities I used to love, but had gotten too out of shape to do anymore. There is a strong emphasis on the mind-body connection and the mental benefits blew me away. I was even able to get off my anti-depressants that I had been on for years (with encouragement and the go-ahead from my doctors of course).

I feel it is worth noting that the owners of this studio are two very strong women who deserve to be supported. The owners of this studio have created a very safe space for anyone, in any level of shape, with any body type, to simply practice yoga and better themselves. I will be forever grateful to have found this gem!

I have been practicing Bikram Yoga since September of 2019. Last week, I had a significant breakthrough; for the first time in my life (I am 45), I can bend over and touch my toes without bending my knees. One month down and a lifetime to go. Thank you to all the fantastic teachers, coaches, and guides at Bikram Yoga SE.

I could go on for days expressing how much I enjoy this studio and staff. I just recently moved to Oregon and as soon as I got locked in at my work location, I began looking for a studio to practice at. My first go-round (at a different location) didn't work out for me. Heat wasn't right, there was a lack of etiquette and the overall feel just wasn't right for me. My continued search found me taking advantage of Bikram Yoga SE Portland's super affordable one month trial and I knew after the first class, this was my new home. Everyone I have conversed with, be it instructor or participant, has been encouraging, friendly and as I tell my struggling tales of woe, empathetic. The classes are HOT and I love it. The instructors are interactive and, with your permission, provide hands on training and guidance. I struggle, strain, sweat, and hold my breath and push, push, push when maybe I shouldn't so much. You know what though? This ole welder's body feels better, my mind feels better, and *sidenote* I can also bend/flex/stretch a lot further than I did a month ago. With practice comes success and with success comes challenges. Hands down, best place to come and achieve both.

In addition to providing the opportunities of retail yoga and logo clothing, hydration after class, and regular practice-expanding workshops, all classes are original 90 minute 26 posture 2 breathing exercise classes. With the amount of classes offered I am able to maintain a consistent practice no matter what day or time I choose to practice. Thank you for being there.

One of my favorite studios at which I've practiced. Clean, beautiful, well-run. Most importantly, the instructors and students are wonderful, creating a welcoming and supportive community for all, no matter what you seek from the practice and what your experience level is.

Thorough, mature instruction and great community of practitioners. Heat is up there as Bikram should be, but not too high. Cedar wall is nice and facilities are clean. There's always a line for the single shower. Probably could cut a second shower in as the two bathrooms are very large and so is the single shower room.

I can't say enough good things about this studio. The owners, Julie and Leah have created such an incredible place. It's clean, welcoming, well run and the cedar wall in the hot room is fantastic. All the teachers I've taken classes from have been knowledgeable and supportive. Bikram yoga is crazy intense and yet this studio also manages to make it fun. It's just such an awesome, challenging yet relaxing environment. If you've been curious about Bikram yoga, but were on the fence, definitely check out a class at this studio!
