Sweat Yoga Playa Vista

This was my first yoga class post-injury and it was AMAZING. Took the Yin class & now I’m obsessed! The instructor was Laura & she was phenomenal. Loved her proper anatomical explanations through the class & her playlist was dope. The Yin class is perfect for beginners & a good deep stretch class. At the end of class they give you an ice cold lavender towel & it’s absolute heaven. I’ve been working with physical therapy & lifting heavy while coming back from an injury & didn’t realize this was exactly what I needed as part of my recovery process. The studio itself has a very modern look. I love that the yoga rooms don’t have mirrors. The locker areas are kept clean & organized. Their water refill station helps you stay hydrated after all that sweating. There’s street parking or a lot behind the studio (with their validation it’s like $3) they also have an outdoor patio area with wifi if you get there early or want to chill after class & get some work done. The customer service was above & beyond. The staff was so friendly & helpful you could tell they’re genuinely happy to be there. It looks like the studios are under new ownership about 6 months ago, so whatever they’re doing — they’re doing it right! They have locations in Santa Monica, West Hollywood, & Little Tokyo as well. Looking forward to taking more classes at Sweat Yoga! PSA: For new members they have 10 days for $30 promo.

Best yoga studio and classes I have ever experienced. The location is ideal, the space is spotless, and every class sequence is thoughtfully curated. The room is saged before each session, creating a true mind, body, and spirit experience. I will miss this studio and hope to see it expand to many more cities in the future.

I was a D1 college athlete looking for a new gym, somewhere I could get in a solid lift, push myself, and be around people who actually care about fitness. At first, I was planning to sign up at Gold’s in Venice, but then I found Sweat and it checked every box. The Chizzle classes with Megan and Toni are no joke. Easily the best workouts I’ve had since college, challenging and they actually leave you feeling accomplished. The flow classes have also been a game changer for my recovery, helping me work through old injuries and stay consistent. What really sets sweat apart is the people. Everyone, the teachers and front desk, is humble, professional and approachable. I tell all my friends to try it out. Once you go, you’ll be hooked.

Used to come here a few times a week for several years and frequently brought my friendly golden retriever who loved greeting guests before and after class. Stopped in for a class recently while in town for work and got turned away without the ability to confirm a refund on the spot because the instructor brought their dog who couldn’t be around other dogs. Seems like business / customer priorities are not aligned here.

This just happened to me, make your own judgement. I showed up for a class I signed up and paid for (days prior, not 15 min before) and was denied entry because they had given away my spot to someone else and no longer had room. It was a 5:45pm class and I walked in at 5:44pm. Sure I could have been earlier but the class had not started, the door was still open and people were setting up. The response was essentially “sorry, we already gave away your spot, you can wait around for an hour and catch the next one or try again later this week”. I was not offered a refund. I had to go back in and ask for it. Only at that point did they make an offer for a free class, which I declined. I was curious if this was an isolated incident and found someone else comment the same issue. Here’s part of the response from the studio to that review: “Never since the day we opened in 2014 has a valid registration, where the student showed up in a timely manner, been denied attendance from the class they registered for” … not so sure about that. Be aware this happens here
