One Hot Yoga
Sydney, NSW
The first thing you notice about One Hot Yoga is the space: it is nestled down a leafy, quiet back-street of Potts Point. Once you find it, you go up the lift to arrive at a bright, sun-filled 1930s warehouse conversion overlooking Potts Point with world-class amenities. Then there are the actual classes: somehow, this studio hosts more than 150 classes per week across styles like Hot Yoga, Yin and Power Yoga. For the uninitiated, despite the studio name, they also offer an excellent Mat or Reformer Pilates class, so it is the perfect membership for those who refuse to choose between Yoga and Pilates…
