    My wife and I went for a year and it was good. The problems started when we decided to cancel. Despite providing written notice of cancellation as instructed, we continued to be billed for two memberships. Multiple calls and emails would get a refund, but then we would be charged again the following month. Currently still dealing with this mess on a monthly basis with no end in sight. May have to escalate to the credit card company as no amount of calling or emailing or assurances we get from Modo gets results. Beware.

    Coming from the point of view who someone is a good athlete but not very into Yoga I had a blast with this. The website is OK basically you book your class online... You can do 1 session for $20 which is good for me because ill probably go twice monthly a the most. The class was awesome the room was hot and the instructor Cameron was informing me how to correctly do the posses it is challenging but attainable for a guy. Just want to write a couple things for you guys to keep in mind 1) the Studio is in an office, it can be a little hard to find. just go in the front door 2) Book online and book early, I forget the class I did i think its called Modo and it was perfect challenge for me 3) The have showers 4) The website can be a bit confusing but you and pre pay for a class. I recommend doing a drop in for $20 before committing monthly for $99 5) Its pretty challenging between the heat and the posses. I hadn't done Yoga for about 2 years.. Keep in mind im athletic but it was the perfect amount of difficulty. I will be back, seems like its the only hot yoga studio in Pickering Ajax?

    Modo Yoga Pickering is fantastic! I joined with my husband a month ago and we have not looked back! This studio has a great variety of classes from basic yoga classes to high intensity, full body workouts. The instructors are so welcoming, engaged with their students and create a fantastic environment. Denise (owner) is lovely and is attentive to the needs of the community. We could not be happier with our experience and so glad we picked this studio!

    I have just started attending class here and absolutely love it. The staff and instructors are so friendly, and the benefits of stress release and flexibility have been wonderful. It has truly revitalized my idea of what fitness is.

    I have been away far too long. It's great to be back at Modo Yoga Pickering. I've always enjoyed the space but it's even more welcoming now. Brighter and still sparkly clean. Lots of classes to choose from and easy to reserve online, especially for the ones that tend to fill up more quickly. Easy to get to, lots of parking and great instructors. What else is there? :)

    I had a great first class at Modo Yoga Pickering, I forgot my mat and rented a nice clean one for $3, staff were friendly and Leanne the instructor of my Modo class was excellent. She gave slow clear instructions, was professional and kind. Music in class was nice too. I will definitely come back for more classes!

    I've been to many yoga studios over the years, and this one will forever be my fave. Even when I'm not as consistent with my practice, the staff are always so warm and welcoming, and consistently make you feel like one of the "regulars"! Large, spacious practice rooms, the perfect level of heat, and clean changing facilities. The best.

    The staff, classes and facility at Modo Yoga Pickering are phenomenal! They offer a wide range of classes and the instructors are encouraging, knowledgeable and passionate about their practice. I previously practiced hot yoga at another Modo Yoga location, and started an intro month pass here in Pickering at the start of 2023. A couple weeks in now, I've been absolutely loving my experience. Christina and Sabrina are two of my favourite instructors here! Highly recommend!!

    I decided to try out Modo as my first ever in person yoga class after only practicing through online videos, and WOW... They have exceeded my expectation of a great studio experience . Everyone at Modo Pickering, from the teachers to staff to other members have been extremely welcoming and kind. After my first drop in class I decided to purchase the monthly unlimited plan, I have tried out almost all their different classes and have loved every single one. Each teacher brings a new an exciting challenge and personal touch to their classes, and I have already felt improvements in my own practice. Whether you're a complete beginner, experienced yogi, or somewhere in between I highly recommend you give Modo a shot, you will not regret it!

  • 5/5 iheart R. 1 year ago on Google
    I have not done a yoga class for about 20 years and never a hot yoga class. I decided to give Modo Yoga a try as it is close to where I live and I do like being hot... I tried the unlimited month pass and made a point of going at least 2 times a week to try out most of the classes. I was hooked after the first class. Modo Yoga studio is full of friendly yoga professionals, clean studios and bathrooms and wonderful yoga instructors. I can 't say enough about doing hot yoga - it makes so much sense! your body is warm and ready to go as soon as the class starts! I look forward to my classes each week as it is the perfect way to destress and get fit at the same time!

    This is such a welcoming studio. I cannot support them enough. The instructors are knowledgeable, kind and mindful of the energy in the room and I haven't looked back since I joined 5 years ago. Just amazing ❤️

    I joined a month ago for unlimited classes. I enjoyed a variety of them. The instructors are all very friendly and encouraging. I thought the heat might be too much, it being the spring/summer, not the case at all. The sessions are fun and challenging, my only suggestion to the instructors is to ease up on the shoulder exercises, it can be a little to repetitive. The studio on a whole is very clean and well kept. I've enjoyed the experience and plan on continuing.

    I have been an unlimited class pass member of this studio for many years, with a brief hiatus because I had moved a bit too far away to continue. In my time away from Modo Yoga Pickering, I tried a number of different studios, so I can confidently say with authority that this studio is the best. It feels like home - the staff and all the teachers are so lovely and welcoming. They all take the time to get to know you, learn you name, and make sure they are attentively supporting you throughout your practice. The classes are fun and challenging, and appropriate for all fitness and comfort levels with hot yoga. There are a number of classes on the schedule throughout the day, everyday which provides a lot of options and flexibility to a variety of schedules. The app makes it easy to book your class. The price for classes and memberships are comparable to other studios I have attended. The studio itself is pretty, very clean and well maintained. Such a welcoming space. I am truly grateful to have moved back into the neighbourhood so that I can make this studio a regular part of my life once again. Cannot recommend it highly enough!

    I enjoy going to the yoga classes with my partner. I’ve tried different yoga studios before, and found this location to be most friendly. The instructors are great at leading and reminding you to stay present in the moment. I always feel great after each session.

  • 5/5 Apoorva D. 5 months ago on Google • 6 reviews
    This is a great studio for yoga. The staff is extremely friendly and welcoming to everyone. Before joining the studio, I had questions and wanted a tour of the facility, and they gladly helped answer all of my questions and showed me around. The space is clean and tidy. They have many different classes depending on what you are interested in and want to practice. I appreciate the flexibility in classes from 6:30 am to 8 pm, suitable for different schedules. The teachers are also great and helpful and walk around to help people with their postures and poses. I have been to many different studios where teachers are not as helpful so I appreciate this. Additionally, I feel recharged after leaving every class and so positive. In conclusion, very positive experience over the last 2 months that I have been a member.

    Such a beautiful studio!! Every class I have taken has been wonderful. There are a variety of classes that cater to any kind of practice. All the instructors are kind, knowledgeable and a joy to be taught by. The space is always clean and welcoming. The community is extremely supportive, even more than expected with personalized check ins from the instructors and staff. Im obsessed with the heated classes, they have completely changed my practice for the better. Im so glad I found this studio!!

  • 5/5 Paul B. 3 months ago on Google • 4 reviews New
    Mods Yoga is great! The studio and change rooms are well kept and the environment is pleasurable to be apart of. I try to go at least once a week for maintenance as I am quite active. Christina’s Sunday morning class is part of my weekly routine and it never disappoints. Cheers!

    I was never a fan of intense workouts, but hot yoga definitely has a mix of intense and mind empowering workouts! Modo yoga has such a wide variety of classes and after trying one it made me eager to try all! I’ve brought some friends/family to classes and they were impressed. Honestly, I love the spirituality aspect of yoga and modo yoga is also so inclusive and the staff are incredibly kind. You have to try it and you won’t be disappointed

  • 5/5 Hilary A. 10 months ago on Google
    I just finished my intro month and I really am enjoying the classes. Because I have an Injury, I wanted to lose weight and gain strength and flexibility, I figured this would be the best option for my joints. Different instructors and different classes are easier or harder, and there is really something for everyone - it's modify and go at your own pace, which is something I need. I always push myself too hard, get frustrated I don't see immediate results, etc. And after a month I do see small changes!! The atmosphere here is really what I love, and the teachers really care to make a connection with you. Never thought I'd be a hot yoga girl but I definitely encourage you to give it a try!

  • 5/5 Zakia O. 6 months ago on Google
    I've been going to this studio for 2 years and love it! A variety of classes to pick from, some great and experienced instructors and the studio provides a safe and friendly environment to practice yoga.

  • 5/5 Jane 9 months ago on Google
    I started taking classes at Modo Yoga a little over a month ago and have really enjoyed myself so far. I always look forward to the classes, I have tried a variety of classes and all of them are very well done! I always feel energized after the sessions. In addition, to seeing changes in my physical fitness, I also find that I feel better mentally and look forward to recharging and unwinding at every session. I started with the first month promotion and had no doubt I wanted to continue with the membership. I am glad I made that decision - I feel so much better both physically and mentally!

  • 5/5 Maria L. 4 months ago on Google
    Great people. Great classes! The location is perfect for me as well. I don't do yoga regularly but it has become a part of my stress relief regimen. I always buy the 10 class pass!

  • 5/5 Paul S. 1 year ago on Google
    I had been looking to add yoga into my weekly training routine in order to maintain mobility and reduce chances of injury, and Modo Yoga has been a great fit. I enjoy the ease of booking through their app and the variety of classes offered. I am what I would consider an intermediate level and find the instructors do a great job in allowing each member to chose their desired level of intensity. The heat helps ensure the body is ready for movement without ever becoming overwhelming.

  • 5/5 Brenda S. 1 year ago on Google
    I have been going to Modo Pickering for awhile now and these classes have really decreased my stress level, increased my flexibility and has toned my body up so much! All the instructors are great and there are various types of classes which is amazing to have so many options. A big thank you to the team at Modo Yoga Pickering for all of your hard work!

  • 5/5 Lisa M. 1 year ago on Google
    I recently joined Modo Yoga Pickering with an unlimited monthly pass to get myself back to a formal yoga practice. After a 5 year gap (mainly due to menopause complications) I was eager to test whether I could resume the hot classes. My experience here has been really great. The teachers are compassionate, non-judgemental, empowering and adept. I have arthritis in much of my body and the heat has proven a great way to ease the pain and be able to move and strengthen. Even the most challenging classes are offered with many modification options. The studio has a pleasant, welcoming atmosphere and is kept very clean. I highly recommend Modo Yoga Pickering.

  • 5/5 Wendy S. 10 months ago on Google
    I can't say enough about Modo Yoga in Pickering. The instructors each bring something unique to their classes. They make it so fulfilling and rewarding each and every time. Whether you want a full body workout, a deep stretch, a therapeutic physical experience or a mental workout to find peace and enhance awareness in your daily life, Modo has it all. I am hooked and love what they have brought to my life.

  • 5/5 Steven B. 11 months ago on Google
    I started with hot yoga at Modo Yoga Pickering about 6 months ago. I initially started with the intention to obtain more strength and mobility while also keeping my body in good shape for work (tradesman). Since I've started, my balance and overall well-being have noticeably improved. I always thought of yoga as a very personal activity, but working in a group with any of their wonderful instructors has changed my mind on that. A little about the studio, it's warm(literally and figuratively!), always smells amazing, and very clean. I currently attend once a week but eventually want to up my frequency as I get stronger. Last thing I want to mention is how good the instructor's lessons combined with the movements are for your spirit. Life can be draining and Modo Yoga helps me feel renewed.

  • 5/5 Zara J. 11 months ago on Google
    I have been loving the sessions at Modo Yoga Pickering over the last few months. I actually get excited now about getting a work out in because of how awesome the classes are! The instructors are all great and really know their practice and give you individual attention if needed. I love that everyone can practice at their own pace and still participate in all of the classes. I started with the 1 month trial membership, and then joined for the monthly regular membership because I loved the classes that much. Thanks Modo Yoga!!

  • 5/5 Gwen W. 1 year ago on Google
    Just recently joined Modo Yoga Pickering. I would highly recommend. Despite having no previous yoga experience, I was made to feel very comfortable with going in at my own pace in each class I tried. The instructors are excellent -- very supportive, passionate with high degree of expertise. And the community they've built is also fun and welcoming. There is an excellent variety of classes to keep you challenged and interested. Give it a try, you'll love it!!

  • 5/5 Mike B. 2 years ago on Google
    I was very pleased with my experience! Being new to yoga they made me feel welcomed, were personable, & helpful. They even took the time to explain to me what I'll need for the class and what to expect. On top of that they gave me a brief tour. Their cell phone app for booking appointments is very quick and easy. I look forward to continue attending their classes!

  • 5/5 Sylvia N. 2 years ago on Google
    Great yoga studio, welcoming and inclusive. Perfect for both beginners and experienced yogis. They also have a great range of membership options, including pay as you go drop-in, unlimited monthly or 10 class passes.

  • 5/5 Cha D. 4 years ago on Google
    This is a really great yoga studio. Beginner friendly as well. What I really love about this studio is that they offer walk-in classes, basically you can just pay for one class. It fits for someone like me who is unable to commit to another membership. Try to come in few minutes earlier for your class, as the room gets crowded and you will have a hard time finding a good spot. Bring a towel if you're doing the hot yoga for there will be buckets and buckets of sweat involve. All the staffs are nice and friendly. There are some instructors who would correct your postures. The locker rooms are well-maintained. It's squeaky clean all the time. And you can leave cute, simple notes there too for other people to read or take.

  • 5/5 Dina M. 5 years ago on Google
    Friendly staff, great teachers, clean change rooms and hot yoga room. Each class is somewhat different based on the instructor which is great for variety. Some really great instructors here who offer challenging and fun workouts.

  • 5/5 Yvonne O. 6 years ago on Google
    Been coming here for 2 years now and loving the studio more and more each time. The teachers and staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Talk to them before and after the class if you have any concerns. The hot yoga series are challenging yet flexible. The place is age and gender friendly and I love seeing a diverse class. If you sign up for an account on the online booking system, you can even earn points and trade for class or yoga wear. If you are still unsure, get the intro month pass for a great deal.

  • 5/5 Nyd T. 1 year ago on Google
    I took advantage of the 30 days intro deal. I am IN LOVE it now! This is a great establishment with great instructors. Can't get enough! There are a lot of different classes that suits my needs depending on the type of effort/work I want for the day. It's very clean and well kept.

  • 5/5 Gabriela Fredericks S. 1 year ago on Google
    Joined Modo Yoga as a referral through my sister. Took advantage of their one month promo and I was hooked! Great atmosphere, never have felt judged, the teachers are wonderful and welcoming. Coming to class is now the best part of my days. Can’t wait to explore other classes too !

  • 5/5 Valerie D. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a great Yoga studio, very close to the highway and in a small plaza with plenty of parking. The classes are always well executed regardless of the instructor, who each have their own style, approach, and passion for yoga. The studio is very welcoming and clean. I've never had a problem reserving a spot for a class and they have a very flexible cancellation policy (2-3 hours before class). All the classes whether it is hot Yoga, regular Yoga, Pilates, or Barre have been a great investment into my overall health.

    I am part of the energy exchange program, and this program has allowed me to be part of this community while not having the funds for it. I am on maternity leave so it has been a beautiful experience as a find myself in my new body and new life. It’s only been a month and the progress I have made mentally and physically makes me so thankful for this program. The staff here are extremely kind and this studio has become my happy place. It’s such an amazing community and I recommend this to anyone. There is such a diversity of teachers and classes here, every experience I have here is profound, in a different way each time. I am so thankful I found this studio.

  • 4/5 Christine 6 months ago on Google • 1 review
    Great studio for hot yoga! The space is clean, calming, and there are a variety of classes available to suite your needs. The people and instructors are warm and welcoming. If it’s your first time doing hot yoga and are looking for a studio, I definitely recommend giving Modo Pickering a try!

  • 5/5 Adelina M. 4 months ago on Google • 1 review
    The instructors at Modo Yoga are amazing! It is clear that they are all passionate about their practice by how engaged they are with the class. As a beginner, I find that they are all warm and welcoming. They are able to adjust their leadership and practice in tune with what the participants needs. I am never disappointed. What I enjoy most about Modo Yoga is the variety of classes that are all included in the membership. Whether it is Modo, Restorative, Barre, etc.- they have it all. There are classes for every level and it is a safe space to practice.

  • 5/5 Maddy M. 4 months ago on Google • 2 reviews
    Just finished my first month with Modo Yoga! I absolutely love it so far. There are such a variety of classes to check out, this includes anything from relaxation and breath work, to a full body cardio workout. Lots of different times in the schedule for each class, and on weekends too! I will be sticking around and renewing my membership:)
