West Coast Sweat Long Beach

Mar 2024

Genuinely the best workout community. I'm currently a freshman in college so I can only come back during my school breaks so the weekly unlimited plan works out so perfectly for me! I mainly go to the IHP classes and can say that all of the instructors genuinely care about you and want to see you be comfortable and improve! As a newcomer, the community is so supportive and can constantly see people congratulate others after a hard workout!!

I first heard about WCS through a friend, but LB was a little far for me coming from Torrance. Then my life had me coming out to LB 3 days a week and I needed to find a way to kill some time out there. I saw that they offered a 10am 90min hot yoga class on Thursdays, which worked out perfect for me and my schedule. After taking Anna's class in the Spring of '22, I was committed to attending this class every week. I would've attended more if they offered that time on other days! I have been doing Bikram hot yoga on and off since my mid-20's (I'm in my early 40's now). Anna's class was challenging, but her voice and guidance throughout the class was like a guided meditation. Something I needed for my anxiety. I took a break during ivf treatments and came back a few months later to Hobey teaching this 10am class. And I'm so grateful! He can make us laugh while struggling through a pose and just has a way of making class fun. I have since brought my mom (who is now a regular with me) and my cousin to this Thurs 10am class and we all love it! I have inquired about adding more late morning hot yoga classes, but as of now, between their 2 studios they only offer this one and one at 10:30am on Sat at LB as well. The late morning time slots are almost all IHP. Driving from Torrance and San Pedro, this late morning time provides us time to properly hydrate before class, it allows us to miss the school and work traffic, and as a former night shift worker (my husband still works nights) it allows me to still get an adequate amount of sleep. I also want to mention that the staff here and at their Hermosa location are all so sweet and welcoming. I ended up having lots in common with the owner, Rosa, and we've bonded over similar life experiences. She had me practice the pregnancy series during my last ivf round and I am currently pregnant and continuing the pregnancy series in class! It just feels like a home away from home. I hope they add another late morning yoga class to either of their studios, since my mom and I go to both!

This was my first time at this studio. Everything was great, from the easy check in process (you can do online), to the awesome teacher, and the nice studio. Felt clean and well cared for and the room was nice and hot (which is a goos thing when you love Bikram). Liliana was the instructor and she was very welcoming and amazing during class. They have a great variety of other classes that I hope to try but I highly recommend the Bikram class. I also loved that the had music on in the background, this really made time fly by. I am happy to have found This studio. I will be back!
