    If you are visiting Waikiki, this is a good place to practice. My favorite classes were the 5am ones. Leaves you plenty of time during the day to enjoy the rest of your vacation. Owner is adaptable and friendly. I do recommend this yoga studio.

    90 minutes of Bikram Yoga with certified Bikram teachers. Awesome studio and students. These studios are getting harder to find while traveling so I am grateful for this place!!! Catherine made it very easy to sign up for classes and provided mat and towel rentals! Be prepared to sweat and have an amazing class!

    I had a wonderful experience at this studio. It was my first virtual class. The instructor gave great position cues. There are cameras at the back of studio, so she can see everything. Very impressive. I’ve been practicing hot yoga a long time and this was one of my favorite classes. Thank you Catherine.

    I just had my first hot HIIT pilates class at this studio and it was a great experience! Catherine is a positive, knowledgeable instructor who gives hands-on corrections to help you master your form. It is a challenging low impact workout and the studio has a really supportive environment. I will definitely try to come back!

    This was the worst yoga experience I have ever had. The owner was our instructor, virtually, and got upset with my wife and I not doing the poses exactly how she wanted them done. She's very controlling, and your "practice" is not your own. Very un-aloha, very passive aggressive, and a terrible idea if you're on vacation and want to hot yoga.

    Catherine΅studio is one of a kind experience in terms of Hot Yoga. It has everything any yoga addict is looking for. It is also a great place for beginners to start their adventure in Hot Yoga or just enjoy a new experience as a visitor. It is clean, organised, and welcoming. Only master teachers from all around the world will teach you here. There are cameras strategically placed in the room. This allows the teacher to precisely see your postures and correct you if needed. I am always amazed at how the teacher can see even a slight error in my postures. The big bonus is the 5am class which allows you to practice every day if working a 9-5. The app used for booking a class makes it easy to reserve your spot or cancel a class. I have never felt in a better shape thanks to the amazing and hard worker owner of this studio. Catherine, you are simply the best!

    Truly a wonderful experience. From the moment I contacted Hot Yoga (via text) everyone I contacted made me feel welcome. I'm just beginning yoga, yet these professionals made me feel terrific before, during, and after the class. I'm just visiting Honolulu for a week, but this experience will be one of my trip highlights. My only regret is I didn't tell them how terrific they are for modifying my poses and making me feel welcome.

    I LOVE this studio for the Pilates. The instructors are great, the music is really fun and everything is amazing all the way around. Catherine is very sweet. I originally came for the yoga, Bikram yoga wasn’t my thing but the Pilates is well worth the money.

  • 5/5 Daniel P. 2 months ago on Google • 5 reviews New
    Great class and teacher. Easy 15-20 min walk from most hotels or easy 7 min. bike ride on Biki bike-share bike. Catherine the owner was super communicative and helpful. Highly recommend this for anyone looking for 26 pose hot yoga fix!!

    I have been coming to this studio for a few years now so this is long overdue.. I love love love the energy and welcoming vibe of this place! I really appreciate all the instructors, especially the hot HIIT Pilates classes and Catherine, the owner. They really push and motivate you, while making sure you have solid form to prevent injury. I’ve gained more from these classes than any others I’ve been to (which is a lot) and even working with a personal trainer. Great classes if you have old injuries and want to build strength. I also love the virtual classes, both for Pilates and Hot Yoga…sometimes it’s even more challenging because they can see you from every angle when teaching remotely (they don’t hold back with corrections and motivation!).

  • 5/5 Elara B. 5 months ago on Google
    Super fun class! Instructor really challenges you to push yourself and get a great workout in. She is very knowledgeable and passionate. I would definitely recommend classes here.

  • 5/5 Danielle V. 6 months ago on Google
    Amazing, magical space!! Beautiful souls, students and instructors!! Everyone is so friendly, welcoming and helpful 🙏🏽 A true 26&2 experience - body, mind and soul. A welcome home away from home 💓🧘🏻‍♀️ Mahalo 🌺

  • 5/5 Camille B. 11 months ago on Google
    Great studio! I’ve been loving the 90 min Bikram at Hot Yoga Waikiki. It’s a fitness intense class, the instructors and fellow yogis are all so welcoming, and it’s an automated classes (instruction is done via zoom). I personally love the automated approach to class as it allows the instructor to focus more on correcting our form. I feel like I get more benefits out of the poses I’m doing and it increases motivation knowing that I’m being encouraged to push myself more throughout the session.

  • 5/5 Yesenia M. 9 months ago on Google
    I took a class here while visiting Hawaii it was wonderful. I was expecting a live teacher and was a little bummed at first when I first showed up for class and saw that it was virtual. The class ended up being a lot better than I expected! Highly recommend!

  • 5/5 Jessica N. 9 months ago on Google
    I love this studio! I’ve taken the 11am hot HIIT class with both Catherine and Lisa and it’s always a great sweat and I leave feeling so pumped. They give lots of variations and individualized attention so that everyone gets a good workout. I’ve been to a few different fitness classes on island and this one is definitely my favorite, would recommend!

  • 4/5 Nicole R. 9 months ago on Google
    My first time Catherine was super welcoming and handled "front desk" virtually via text before I got there. They sent photo instructions and I arrived feeling right at home. Definitely felt the aloha. Will be back.

  • 5/5 M L. 1 year ago on Google
    Fabulous studio. I was skeptical about the virtual format at first, but it turned out to be great. My main complaint about the studio I go to at home is that it’s not hot enough - not a problem here. The natural humidity in Hawaii helps out.

  • 4/5 Sheila X. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a well managed yoga studio. The owner contacted me to give me class info immediately, after I signed up for a visitor class. The studio is tidy and clean. It is located approx.10-15 mins walk from the Waikiki beach. The yoga class was taught via Zoom. I think all classes are done via Zoom at the Waikiki studio. It would be nice if the website can be a bit more specific. The change room (i.e., restroom) is outside of the studio. There is no shower in the restroom. Perhaps yoga studios in Hawaii typically do not have shower facility.

  • 5/5 Patrick R. 11 months ago on Google
    This was an awesome experience— I was in town for three days and was able to join for a wonderful hot class every day! Catherine and her team provide a great experience! I will definitely be joining for more classes when I am back in town.

  • 5/5 Sica L. 2 years ago on Google
    I like it a lot! I go almost everyday! They have Hot Pilates and also Hot Yoga class. It’s not only help me to build up my muscles or lose weight but also make my body more flexible and body circulation better. Really recommended!

  • 5/5 tara m. 3 years ago on Google
    Convenient location, convenient class times, clean, efficient, no fuss. Great place to get in, get your practice on, and get out. Staff and other practitioners are extremely helpful, friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend

  • 5/5 Constance D. 2 years ago on Google
    The BEST yoga practice I’ve ever experienced. Catherine’s studios cultivate the feeling of belonging and family synergy that welcomes everyone. There’s nothing Superficial about the studio. It fulfills it’s purpose by making sure yogis have an amazing practice. Other studios my be bigger with more bells and whistles. But you won’t leave feeling like you’re just another dollar practicing yoga. Your yoga practice will significantly improve in the shortest amount of time, because of the nurturing and inviting instruction from TOP NOTCH professional yoga instructors.

  • 5/5 Shellie B. 2 years ago on Google
    Really impressed with this studio! My first ever “virtual” experience and the entire set up was on point! Great communication, comfortable atmosphere and genuinely caring owner/operator! Highly recommend and I will definitely be back! Thank you!!

  • 5/5 Jacinta “Mia” A. 2 years ago on Google
    I purchased a 1 week visitor package which included a mat while in Honolulu. The studio is cozy, heat and humidity well controlled and staff was super helpful and friendly. Owner Katherine is so professional and welcoming. I really enjoyed practising at this studio and look forward to practising here again. All regular students seem to have discipline and are serious about their practise. I highly recommend taking a class at Hot Yoga Waikiki.

  • 5/5 Terry T. 3 years ago on Google
    Simply the best. Nice, clean, perfect sized studio with easy parking on site or on street. Lots of choices for classes. Studio is big enough to feel a sense of community but small enough to get personal attention specific to your practice. Katherine is passionate about yoga and wants the best experience for everyone. Would write more but just believe this studio is a godsend

  • 5/5 Shane R. 3 years ago on Google
    Catherine is an awesome teacher that will lead you through a great session. She has great cues a good sense of humor. You will leave feeling inspired!

  • 5/5 Dreya M. 3 years ago on Google
    I am so glad I found Catherine’s studio! Hot yoga has changed so much of my life! I love the community, the class hours are so flexible for my lifestyle and I have never felt this good physically in my life! If you’re in Waikiki take a class!

  • 5/5 Gabrielle R. 1 year ago on Google
    Holy moly. Saw this on ClassPass and booked the 60 min hot pilates class for me and my roommate. I usually struggle to sweat but this class had me dripping sweat and shaking. Catherine is a fantastic coach in that she really makes sure everyone in the class feels that one-on-one style coaching that a newbie like me needed. She corrected my posture and form and did so with everyone who needed it, even in this 30 person class (an anomaly). I will definitely be going back and so will my roommate. My roommate suffers from wrist problems and Catherine made sure to include more accessible ways to do certain exercises without straining her wrists. Her inclusivity, energy, and overall demeanor is the reason there were so many regulars in the class as well as the rate of people who come back. I am so excited to attend the 90 min hot yoga class as well as another hot pilates class.

  • 5/5 Leonard C. 2 years ago on Google
    Excellent hot yoga studio centrally located in town. Lots of classes to accommodate everyone’s individual schedules. The variety of classes offered and the excellent instructors makes this studio my favorite! If you’re looking for a studio to join I highly reccomended HYPE/ Hot Yoga Waikiki!! Also shout out to Lisa! She’s amazing and keeps you motivated to keep coming back!

  • 5/5 Marie G. 2 years ago on Google
    Hot yoga is on point ! Great instructors and community here . Pilates is super hard and you feel accomplished afterwards.

  • 5/5 Jason M. 2 years ago on Google
    Great studio! Amazing teachers, EVERY teacher has over 15+ years experience. You can’t find that anywhere. Impressive!

  • 5/5 Howard S. 4 years ago on Google
    A beautiful studio with glass walls giving lovely green views. Short walk to heart of Waikiki. Catherine was great enthusiastic teacher. All Namaste Aloha style.

  • 5/5 Cèilidh S. 1 year ago on Google
    Really enjoyed my experience! Catherine is a great instructor. I had never done hot pilates before, and was just starting to workout again after a long series of health complications, so I was nervous. Catherine pushed me and made me feel accomplished, while also allowing me to take breaks when I needed them. Thank you for a great class!

  • 5/5 Matthew S. 1 year ago on Google
    I had a great class here. It was the perfect way to shake off a long flight and get into vacation mode. Everything was clean and the people are friendly.

  • 5/5 Scott M. 1 year ago on Google
    Very good aloha vibes. Cathrine is super friendly, and helpful!! The studio itself is in a great/ safe location, and extremely clean. The class itself is great, and the instructor is always attentive.

  • 3/5 Bill C. 1 year ago on Google
    Fine studio. Slightly frustrated that the instructor literally phoned it in. She showed up on zoom. Half the class was gossiping before the class started inside the studio. I may be old school, I was taught that the studio was to be respected and to respect fellow classmates but not talking. The s instructor has some good pointers, and maybe better if she were to be there in person. Doubtful I’ll be back.

  • 5/5 Yuriko i. 1 year ago on Google
    What a beautiful, simple and clean studio! Lots of help from the owner from the moment I registered to take class. Love that I found my yoga home.

  • 5/5 Kerri A. 1 year ago on Google
    What great customer service! After registering online, I was contacted by a staff member via txt that welcomed me to the studio. They asked me important details before I even arrived. I let them know that I needed a mat and towel rental and it was waiting for me when I got there. They also took my payment ahead of time making check in very convenient. Thanks Catherine for the safe and specific corrections and the detailed instruction. I haven’t been able to find a traditional bikram method 90min yoga studio in Honolulu.

  • 5/5 Alicia G. 2 months ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    I just had my first class here and loved it. Class size was comfortable and not too crowded, heat level of the room was perfect and not overwhelmingly hot. Loved the high intensity and it's extremely challenging so you can modify as you need. Lisa is one of the best instructors I've had! Lots of positive energy and motivating.

  • 5/5 Bryan B. 3 months ago on Google • 1 review New
    Highly recommend Hot Yoga Waikiki for 26+2 methodology. Each instructor has 15 years or more experience! The studio is a great space, clean with right mix of humidity and heat! Owner Catherine is wonderful and wants the best experience possible for the newcomer and for those accustomed to this practice.

  • 5/5 Jerry P. 3 months ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    I really enjoyed the class, the space and the people. I have been doing the 26/2 for a while and found the virtual format to be pretty cool. The person who checked me in was super respectful and helpful, and made it easy to get oriented and feel welcome. The class itself was well paced and the delivery of the dialog was awesome. The temp was good and it seems like a really good little community of people following the practice here in Waikiki.

  • 5/5 Sean D. 3 months ago on Google • 2 reviews New
    I was lucky enough to be able to practice Twice at this Studio while visiting Waikiki. The community were very helpful and friendly. The space was well heated and the teachers gave clear and responsive Prompts. Thank you Hot Yoga Waikiki.
