Coolhotyoga and Pilates

Took the restorative yoga class with Lisa tonight and it was just amazing. I took a hiatus from yoga unfortunately and wanted to get back into the practice. This was such a lovely and relaxing class, it went by so quickly! I felt like I was able to calm down, stretch out, and shake off all the stress of a busy Monday. Lisa was a great instructor too. Can’t wait to take more classes at Cool Hot Yoga.

If you’re looking to try aerial yoga, Coolhotyoga is great and probably one of the only places in the area. Evangelina and Christina are excellent teachers that make class very enjoyable. Yes, it it pricier than other fitness and yoga classes, but try it and you might like it!

Let’s be honest, not everyone enjoys working out, but we all want to be fit. Well, I finally found a workout that I enjoy and actually look forward too… antigravity yoga! I started going to Coolhotyoga (CHY) in June of 2014 after I bought a Groupon for 10 classes, and I’ve been going back ever since. With convenient class times and the use of an app (MindBody Connect), signing up for your next class is a breeze.
I’ve taken many antigravity yoga classes, and only one other class (booty barre), so this review is mainly speaking to the former. During my time at CHY, I’ve taken the antigravity yoga classes with three different instructors, all of which are well-​qualified and friendly. They also give you that extra push one needs when trying something new all while letting you go at your own pace. Antigravity yoga is a great full-​body workout that will leave you feeling longer, stronger, more flexible and with a good feeling of sore the next day. Just remember to trust that the hammock will hold you, and you’ll be hanging upside down in no time!

I found my permanent yoga spot! CHY is awesome. I have already done 10 anti-​gravity yoga classes and have about 7 more until I have to purchase more classes. You have to book the classes online and be sure to book early because they fill up fast. You can buy single classes, but after the first class (anti-​gravity), you will be hooked!
I have not tried any other class except anti-​gravity, but I am sure they are just as great. The AG classes are so fun. You really get to lengthen and stretch out your body and work all the other muscles you didn’t think you had! Laura and Michelle are great instructors, they allow everyone to go at their own pace but also give you that extra push you need. I learn something new every time I go to class. Just being on the hammocks is already fun. AG yoga is an awesome experience and I recommend everyone to try it at least once! They have a location in California as well, which I hope I can attend to when I go this summer for vacation, I can’t get enough!

Took the aerial yoga class tonight for the first time and it was awesome. The instructors were super encouraging and hands on. I tend to be nervous about these kind of things and they made me feed very comfortable. Excited to go again!

This review is for yoga classes. I haven’t taken any other classes at coolhotyoga.
I have been to many different yoga studios in many different places. and I think this is my favorite yoga studio in north jersey. Convenient location with many available parking spots. Easy online scheduling/​cancellation. Great teachers and facility. Classes varies depending on teachers, so you may want to take different classes to see which class and teacher you would like. Bring a towel and water, and arrive a little early to get a good spot.

I purchased the 10 classes from Groupon. I have tried Hot Yoga and Booty Barre but my favorite class that I keep going back for is Pilates Mat with Michelle C. I’m still hoping to try an Antigravity class but it hasn’t fit in with my schedule.

First I would like to thank Michelle for an amazing class this Sunday (⁴⁄₁₄). I am grateful for the extra push and the fact that she believed in me to complete the postures, even if I didn’t. I truly felt a sense of accomplishment after her class. My friends from Staten Island were so excited that, they too said they would be back to take classes. We loved her energy, it’s contagious!!! I purchased the 10 class Groupon a while back and have to say, to date this is the best Groupon so far !! I Let’s just say, I also purchased a Pilates package with Denise (of whom I think is equally an amazing instructor and great motivator) I need help with my stiffness and posture and enrolled in Sarah’s workshop on the ⁴⁄₂₆ for Happy Feet, Knees, and Hips Workshop. I’m very excited and look forward to growing and evolving into a «hopefully» less stiff well rounded Yogi.
I am grateful to have had the opportunity to meet such accomplished, knowledgeable and patient practitioners.

First off, love online scheduling. It’s a breeze.
Did the Groupon special and definitely worth it for the price. The hot yoga instructor, Patti was amazing. I never liked yoga until now! It wasn’t as hot as bikram yoga but still, I was sweating up a storm in there (also, I sat right in front of the heater).
Get there early because classes fill up as does space. And bring water and a towel! You will definitely need it.
I walked out of my first session feeling re-​energized and amazing. Huge fan. Cannot wait to try some of the other classes.

I visited this studio just to see what it was all about, Lululemon was having a promotion for free classes at different studios in the area for the month. The teacher I spoke with was rude and condescending, and from what I understand she is the owner! I ended up taking a class with a different teacher, and I enjoyed the class but the welcoming that I received wasn’t nice at all, I’d love to check out their anti-​gravity class but not if I am to be treated so poorly.
UPDATE: I’ve gone back! The owner has grown on me a lot. I’ve heard her say in class that it hurts her to say nice things. She might have just been stressed with the Lululemon promotion. I think she means well, and her pilates classes are serious. I have since taken an anti-​gravity class which was fun too!

Fantastic classes and great studio!
