Yoga Box — Attraction in San Diego

Unfortunately, I have to strongly disagree with positive reviews on yoga box. (Try ReUnify if you are reading this!!!) I have been practicing yoga for over 15 years and 400 hours of YTT myself. I’ve taught and practiced across the country and Central America. After living in Costa Rica for 7 years I came back to California to find this new wave of chain yoga studios taking over. These chain studios all extremely under pay their teachers and disregard the healing aspects of yoga. These classes are challenging due to extreme heat (the flows are actually pretty basic) - you can build the same strength without sweating on your neighbors mat in the process. On top of that the location in OB smells disgusting. I’m vegan but I still can’t get over that they didn’t have any candles or incense sticks to counter the deep fryer and sweat smell. Yoga box also spams you with texts after coming one time - very annoying.

I urge anyone reading this to please visit your local non-corporate yoga studio to get the real benefits physically and mentally of yoga in an environment that supports students and teachers well being. For anyone in OB...

Affordable yoga studio in the heart of North Park! I highly recommend Yoga Box if you’re looking for a hot yoga experience.

Parking Street parking only in the neighborhood. Come early to look for a spot and walk over!

Class Style Yoga Box has 4 class types- I’ve only taken Sculpt and Power Flow Vinyasa. Sculpt is a cardio based class- think weights and resistance bands, very similar to CorePower’s. The intensity of the class depends on the instructors and these classes are typically in the morning. Power Flow Vinyasa is what you would imagine when you think typical yoga class offered in the morning and evening. My biggest tip for hot yoga would be to invest in a good quality yoga mat towel, you will be DRIPPING in class.

Overall, I am really happy with Yoga Box! I love that their membership includes access to all locations and that the first 3...

Before joining the OB Yoga Box studio, I had only taken 1 hot yoga class and was intimidated by the idea of joining a hot yoga studio but Yoga Box’s 3 free class trial was so enticing I decided to give them a try. I’m so glad I did. I absolutely love it - specifically that they teach both vinyasa and sculpt, that their instructors do an incredible job challenging and motivating me, and that they offer a huge number of classes - including a 6am weekday class. All of their instructors are incredible but I especially love McKenna, Bri, Lauren, Lexi, and Joshua. I’m over 50 and while most of the students are significantly younger, I’ve felt very welcomed, comfortable and encouraged. I’ve also seen positive results in both my strength and tone. If you’re thinking about it. Give them a try. You won’t be...
