I wish I could give them 500 stars instead of just 5! I've practiced Bikram Yoga for almost 20 years at various studios in Baltimore. I also travel frequently for business, so I've visited studios from east to west coast. Bikram Yoga Works - Mount Vernon is the BEST studio experience out there, HANDS DOWN!!
Beyond Bikram Yoga, they offer an amazing lineup of classes. Hot pilates and hot barre will literally change your body and both are great compliments to a regular Bikram practice. The best part of their classes (after the awesome instruction, of course) is the gift of an ice cold lavender towel at the end :-)
The biggest difference from BYW and the many other yoga studios I've visited, is the people. The instructors are well-trained professionals with a ton of great energy. They drive you to get the most out of every class and even more importantly, they drive you to be a better you, inspiring students to #justshowup. The community, is just that, a community. I have the honor of practicing alongside wonderful, mindful students with an abundance of positive energy that is felt from the moment you walk in the door.

The teacher cared too much and I was really pushing myself because of the energy in the room and the instructor that taught as if she really loved the yoga and wanted us to love it as much as her. If you do this yoga a lot the instruction at times can become mundane but not at this studio. The studio had a great heating system, was clean, and every single person I met had a smile...
   Read moreI did 90 minute hot yoga tonight and really liked the instructor. I wish all instructors were as meticulous in correcting posture as he was- and he remembered everyoneâs name. However, I cannot do hot yoga in those bright fluorescent lights. It is not relaxing and I became disoriented doing back bends with the fluorescent light in my eyes and had to sit out of the class for a few minutes which is abnormal for my hot yoga practice. I understand itâs bright to see posture but Ive been doing hot yoga in low lighting up until tonight. I would come back if the atmosphere were more relaxing and low stimulation. If that doesnât bother you, definitely come try...
