A friend of mine invited me to a hot pilates class here, and I went without truly understanding what I was even getting into. When she said "bring a towel" I literally brought a hand towel not one the size of my mat. The class was by Emily that day who is a hilariously hardcore comedian, I mean - teacher - who is incredibly motivating and fun - and she will call you on your stuff but also motivate you to no end.

The next 3 days I had to hold onto both sides of the wall to pee. I was soooo sore! I knew I had to go again... and again... and again...

In September 2024 a friend of mine took a picture of me at the beach and everyone thought I was pregnant. Following my first concussion I gained weight to about 136lbs (I'd always been 115lbs before this) and it seemed really uphill for me to get a handle on everything. I started working out at home because I was too embarrassed to wear workout clothes in front of anyone. Then I went to the gym almost every day and I got down to 128lbs. But I could not seem to cut anymore weight off. I just felt stuck and I didn't look or feel the way I wanted to yet.

When I went to this studio in November, that was it for me. I got the intro membership which is a ridiculously good deal at $30 for 20 days of unlimited classes (drop ins are $15 to put it in perspective!). I tried all the classes I could in that amount of time, coming every single day and I was hooked. There is not a single class I haven't liked or an instructor I haven't enjoyed. I literally look forward to every class, seeing the people (both instructors and attendees) and its become an integral part of me. Now when I take vacation or travel, I'm actually super bummed because I am going to miss classes!

Coming regularly has made me feel like I have another family here, a community that wants what is best for me and a true judgement free zone that's encouraging, motivating and fun. I feel so much better about myself in more ways than just the physical.

I can be encouraged looking around the room at the beautiful people who come here and look and workout in amazing ways that I just want to be able to keep up with their vibe and sometimes I feel like I'm finally that for others in the room too. No matter your goals, you will find a place for your body, mind and spirit here that just feels at home, welcomed and good enough every single day.

Plus, you'll laugh. And that's really good medicine.

There's lots of parking - they have their own app which is Sandpoint Hot Yoga where you can register for classes and get in ahead of time (heavily recommended! Especially for the hot pilates classes). There two changing rooms for men and women, showers in both and a bathroom you can use plus plenty of storage if you bring a yoga bag or take off your shoes. They also have water available, you can buy or rent mats and towels and there's plenty of weights, blocks, blankets, straps, pillows or whatever you need for everyone to use for any adjustments you require. The big room has a very strong heater that works well, they don't pile you on top of one another and there's two ceiling fans in the room with dimming lights and two walls that are all mirrors so you can make adjustments to your positions by self observation.

PS - Support the 6:30am classes by attending so they keep them forever and in all the seasons on all the weekdays...

The Hot Pilates class and Yin Yoga classes have been a large part of the success I have had with both knee replacements. Strengthening the necessary muscles and stretching. Has help speed up my recovery due to the muscle strength and stretching from these classes. I highly recommend giving it a try.

Classes with Toshi are awesome. Amazing vinyasa flows. I leave the class feeling great, working all the stiffness out of my body. He subbed for a 90 minute vinyasa on a rainy Sunday and it was Fantastic. Studio is well priced too.

Sandpoint Hot Yoga (SHY) is a fantastic studio. I have been practicing there for a few years. The instructors are knowledgable, encouraging and very interested in helping you in your yoga journey. The studio offers so many class options, warm or hot. Shy is a studio that I will continue to attend. I am a lifer!!!! I definitely recommend SHY regardless of the level of your practice.

Wonderful folks, incredibly talented teachers, and a welcoming, cozy atmosphere. SHY offers so many types of classes from vinyasa to bikram, and fusion to restorative classes. They offer hot classes along with warm classes, to appeal to ALL ability types. Whether you are brand new to yoga (as I was when I first came to SHY), or you have been a yogi for life looking for instructors that will push you to that next level, SHY is the place to practice! These instructors are the best in the area. You will not find teachers more dedicated to the happiness and growth of their yogis than these folks. Five stars all the way!!

I have been attending Nicole Murray’s vinyasa classes for years and I absolutely love the experience she provides. Her practice focuses on the breath and creating an engaging flow between the mind and the body. She does this in a way that pushes you to be better and I always leave happier than when I arrived.

SHY is my home away from home. I have taught and taken classes here since Kerri opened her doors 10 years ago. I love surrounding myself with friends and regulars... and meeting the new people that are here for a brief vacation and need a yoga break. I feel so fortunate for this studio!!

Stopped in to check this place out since I heard so much about it.  I am new to hot Yoga. From the minute I walked in the door they made me feel comfortable and explained the different classes they offer. Once in class the instructor, Julie Pitre, will help you with knowing what to do. She makes you feel comfortable if you don't know the poses or can't do them. She lets you know that it takes time, but to stick to it. If you can't do what everyone else is, you're asked to at least stay in the class and just sit or lay down. I have always been one to lift weights and do cardio. I can say I love this and have found a new passion. Quite impressed! I suggest you stop by and check this place out.

You won't regret taking a single class at SHY! They've got kind and knowledgable instructors that will both push you and provide space for a laugh in the studio whether you are a new or returning yogi. The studio is warm and welcoming and a great place to get a sweaty stretch on! I can't recommend them enough!
