Our Mission

We believe that yoga is for everyone regardless of age, body type, or experience level – it’s never too late to start your yoga practice. At Hot Yoga Chelsea our mission is to provide a genuine and fulfilling hot yoga practice that will contribute to the physical and emotional health of our students. We are excited that you have chosen us to share in this remarkable personal journey!

Yoga has the potential to be a lifelong practice, especially when you are encouraged to come and just do the best that you can. Our traditional Bikram-inspired Hot Yoga & Hot Vinyasa is suitable for beginners, and offer multiple benefits including increase in flexibility, balance, strength, elevated mood, weight loss, and more!

Non-waiver:
It is a common practice for yoga studios and gyms to greet you with a registration form which in essence says; “Sign up! Pay us and we take no responsibility for your well being.” We have always struggled with that being the basis of our relationship with our students. Therefore we believe that we are in partnership with you, and that if you agree to the following common sense guidelines we are certain that you will have a healthy, empowering experience that will enrich your well-being.

  • No Teacher knows what your are feeling physically, mentally or emotionally.
  • Listen to your body, listen to your intuition. If you are unaccustomed to this, yoga provides you the opportunity to develop it.
  • Never force, muscle, or aggressively perform the asanas/yoga poses. Moderate your enthusiasm with wisdom. Be active NOT aggressive.
  • Your breath is a great barometer of your practice; if your breath becomes choppy, short or strained…. it’s your bodies way of telling you to back off and take a break.

Thank you for joining us in partnership to ensure a safe and healthy practice. We look forward to seeing you soon!

Hot Yoga Chelsea is independently owned and operated.  Hot Yoga Chelsea fully supports people from all over the world who have a shared desire for justice to act together in their communities. That commitment is a stand against the deliberate violence inflicted against people of color.

So let me start by saying you are going to sweat your life in there it’s very hot and I loved it!
The staff is amazing we’re super helpful and pushing you to succeed ❤️
I definitely recommend you won’t regret!
Great ownership! Very kind people. Worth going to
I went for a class for the first time. Very nice team. They took care of me and explained everything. Enjoyed it a lot. Jenny the teacher was perfect

🙏
It’s been a while since I went to class and it was great being back. Staff are all very friendly.
fantastic yoga spot! the instructors are great!
I love it here. The studio is clean and spacious. I enjoy the atmosphere and instruction during class. One of the best places I’ve practiced Bikram Yoga.
I love this space so much! It smells so good and is so clean. The community feels really authentic and encouraging. The teachers remember all the names and it makes the classes feel really personable. Overall will be coming back frequently.
Amazing teachers!
Warm and welcoming yoga class. Came from out of town for early morning 9am 60 min, highly recommend!
This is my second class here at this studio, and all I have to say is that I am so grateful to have found such an amazing place to practice hot yoga. Neil and all teachers are very kind and accommodating, and work hard to ensure that you have the best experience in the studio. I can’t wait to continue to grow and practice here! Thank you!!
Great place very friendly highly recommend if you love bikram yoga!!
Can’t say enough good things about Chelsea Hot Yoga! From the instructors, to the studio to the vibe…it is all good and all welcoming. Run, don’t walk and get into the hot room @ Chelsea Hot Yoga! I joined about a year ago, had to leave for knee replacement surgery and just rejoined, so happy I did!
Love the Sunday night vinyasa with Jermaine! Best end of the weekend/start to the week!
Great instructors and wonderful inviting atmosphere. And the workouts…wow!
Just go, you won’t regret it.
I’m new to yoga and Hot Yoga Chelsea has been an incredibly welcoming experience. Instructors are fantastic, classes are challenging. Give it a try!
So kind, and one of the few studios authentic to the integrity of the practice.
Wonderful studio and a great practice! Tasha is absolutely wonderful!!
Hot yoga in a supportive, knowledgeable and friendly environment- what could be better!
Great class and studio. Highly recommend!!
Such a fantastic, professional and clean establishment!
Yoga and HIIT classes are great here. Community and teachers are warm and welcoming to new people. Comfortable big room with soft floor is nice to workout on. Showers are nice when you sweat as much as me. Andy’s HIIT class is my favorite!
I do hot yoga in different studios in New York based on my schedule and I must say that Chelsea hot yoga is the first place in New York City that I don’t do one of class because I just feel at home here the way I did in Long Beach Bikram. There’s a few great places left in New York with passionate yoga teachers And the hot yoga is certainly an enlightening experience with unbelievable benefits. These guys have great showers they keep their space. Immaculate, the teachers are great, the room is so comfortable. This is truly the best mindful practice to learn how to regulate The central nervous system and relax for God sakes, relax! @ilovegoodsugar @marcusantebi
Never tried Bikram Yoga before, but definitely is a level up from the more common vinyasa style hot yoga. Highly recommended if you’re looking to try a new style, and get a great workout in the 90 min class.
Three stars, because the class instructor was genuinely great/encouraging. The class itself was a good one. Now imagine coming out of a hot yoga class where you’re supposed to feel invigorated and centered, only to have this older guy (is it the owner? Who knows) at the front desk try and strong arm you into buying $$$ worth of classes on the spot. He would not let me check out, and kept wondering off when I tried to. I finally got frustrated and went to leave. That got his attention! After it was clear I wasn’t going to buy hundreds of dollars worth of classes after my very first time there, he was much more curt with me. The whole thing left such a bad taste in my mouth, I would never come back. Which sucks, cause it was a good class, and only a few blocks from work.
Response from the owner:Hello, I’m the owner—“the old guy,” as I like to say! I sincerely apologize if I came across as pushy during your experience. I genuinely love this business and being surrounded by the yoga community. I appreciate your honest feedback, and I’ll definitely work on my approach. To make it up to you, I’d like to invite you to come in for a few classes on me. Thank you again for sharing your thoughts. I truly value it. Best, Neil
This hot yoga was awesome. Also the facilities are really nice and the owner was so welcoming!
Don’t live in NYC but came in as a guest of a friend and had a great time. Would come back again if I got the chance to.
I moved around the corner specifically so that I could go to this studio. I love that they have lots of class times and variety. I love the adjustable shower heads that they have. I come to class 4-6 times a week 🙂

I do however sometimes have certain issues with some of the instructors, controlling, high strung, fear driven energy. I think to myself, is this yoga or am I training to be a Navy SEAL? What happened to do what’s right for your body? I took a break and realized that I should still go. I can either avoid those instructors or talk to them about my needs and boundaries. At the end of the day we are all adults.

I wish that they had more reusable friendly options like a filtered water fountain. When you rent a towel I would prefer that it actually be one that is ment for a Yoga mat so it can actually cover all of it. Sometimes when I come to the 7 am class the room isn’t hot enough yet. This is not my first studio so I know these things are possible.

I love Andy’s HIIT class. His energy is the same in and out of the Yoga room. I love taking Myrna’s & James class!
Jermaine was an amazing teacher. Highly recommend the class.

Bikram hot yoga with Blayne Z. Was amazing. Her instructions were very specific and she would engage with you, you want that so you know what to do next time!
The heat was exactly what you need.

Loved it!! 🥰

Hot Yoga Chelsea is a total gem!

The studio has such a cozy, welcoming vibe, and the staff is genuinely some of the nicest people you’ll meet. They offer classic Bikram yoga along with Hot HIIT and hot mat Pilates, so there’s something for everyone, whether you’re into deep stretching or a more intense sweat session. I LOVE their 90 minute classes personally.

The instructors are amazing—super knowledgeable, encouraging, and passionate about what they do. Plus, the prices are really reasonable compared to other boutique studios in the city, which makes it even better. They always have great deals for class packages and they’re super welcoming to beginners.

If you’re looking for a place that truly prioritizes the yoga experience without the pretentiousness, this is it. Every class leaves you feeling refreshed, strong, and totally energized. I have been going here for 2 years and counting and it’s my favorite workout spot in the city: lowkey, unpretentious, understanding, with a great community feel. Highly recommend!

I had a wonderful experience at this yoga studio! The atmosphere is incredibly welcoming, and the studio itself is clean with no distracting odors. I appreciated how the teacher checked in with the class beforehand to see if anyone had injuries or special needs—such a thoughtful touch. There was plenty of space, so I never felt crowded or worried about other people being too close. It was refreshing not to deal with anyone’s feet or sweat invading my mat space! Overall, the considerate vibe really made this studio stand out. Highly recommend!
