What Hot Pilates actually is

Hot Pilates runs a fast, high intensity mat sequence in a room heated to anywhere from 85 to 105 degrees Fahrenheit, and studios vary more than Bikram rooms do. It borrows the heat from hot Yoga and the core sequencing from Pilates, and it is closer to a conditioning class than a classical Pilates session. Bring more water than you think you need.

  • Heated room, anywhere from 85 to 105 degrees
  • Higher intensity and faster pace than classical Pilates
  • Mat based, no machine
  • Often shares a schedule with hot Yoga
  • Towel and extra water essential

Typical is the median, not the average, so one high priced studio cannot drag a city upward. A city appears once at least two of its studios have published a price, and the cities with the most priced studios come first. A drop in is each studio's standard group class price, so where a studio teaches several styles it may not be the Hot Pilates price.

Is Hot Pilates right for you?

The honest version. Every class style suits some people and not others, and a directory that pretends otherwise wastes your first class fee.

It suits you if

  • People who already like heated rooms
  • Anyone who wants mat Pilates at a higher intensity
  • Those who sweat easily and enjoy it

Look elsewhere if

  • Anyone pregnant, unless a clinician has cleared it
  • People with blood pressure or heart conditions, without medical advice
  • Beginners, who have enough to learn without the heat

Before you book

What happens in your first class

  1. 1Arrive hydrated and bring more water than you think you need
  2. 2Bring a towel. Most studios require one and many rent them
  3. 3Rooms run anywhere from 85 to 105 degrees, so pace the first class deliberately

What to ask before you pay

  • Ask the exact room temperature. Hot Pilates varies far more than Bikram
  • Check whether the room is heated with humidity or dry heat
  • Ask how the room is ventilated between classes

Hot Pilates questions

What is the difference between hot Pilates and hot Yoga?

Both use a heated room. Hot Pilates runs a faster, higher intensity core and conditioning sequence with no held postures, while hot Yoga moves through yoga postures and holds. Hot Pilates generally feels more like circuit training and hot Yoga more like a flow.

How hot does the room actually get?

Anywhere from 85 to 105 degrees Fahrenheit, and studios vary more than Bikram rooms, which hold at 105. Ask the studio for its exact figure. The heat is there to loosen you rather than to make the class a survival exercise, but it is still enough to need water and a towel.

What should I bring to a hot Pilates class?

Water, a towel for your mat, and clothing you do not mind sweating through. Grip socks if the studio uses equipment in the heated room, and a spare top if you are going anywhere afterwards.

Where can I take Hot Pilates classes?

135 studios in 105 cities list Hot Pilates. The most are in New York, NY (8), Buffalo, NY (3) and Fort Worth, TX (3). Each city page lists every studio teaching it there.

What do studios listed here actually charge?

The median drop in price across the 26 studios here that publish one is $30, and the middle half charge $25 to $32. That is each studio's standard group drop in, so at a studio teaching several styles it may not be what a Hot Pilates class costs there.

Why compare Hot Pilates here

  • Prices carry a date

    A studio price shows the date it was last checked wherever we hold one. Stale is stated, never hidden.

  • Verification is four states

    Listed, claimed, verified and enhanced. We never blur them into one green tick.

  • Equipment aware

    Class size is capped by machine count, which is why the apparatus in the room is listed, not just the class name.

  • Position is never sold

    Order is verification, freshness and rating. No studio can buy its way up this list.
