Fire Shaper - Westwood

"Fireshaper is the best hot yoga studio I've been to in my 7 years practicing. The quality of the heat is unmatched, as is the quality of the teachers."

"The love that is shared among all the teachers and students keeps me coming back for more yoga each week. The instructor was so kind to me as I went through my yoga training. She was thorough in the educational material and brought in many experienced teachers for us to learn from. This is a true yoga studio, where kindness and love for each other and our bodies is paramount."

"Fire Shaper Is a Wonderful Place to do yoga if you love to do yoga in the winter and it’s too cold then this yoga place does yoga in the hot degree heat so you feel like you’re living in the summer season all year long. Best place to do yoga and makes less stress especially if you’ve had a hard work day."

"Overall, my experience with Fire Shaper was okay! The most important aspect of the experience, they have covered... their instructors were consistently excellent and their schedule is easy to access through multiple forms of technology... website, app, or phone. I was new to hot yoga and tried it consistently for 4 months. I decided to stop because it was too expensive for only receiving one type of workout. In a gym, you would pay a fraction of the cost and have a choice with classes or cardio. I had a few disappointments that I couldn't ignore. - Although they appear to really embrace the whole yogi lifestyle... the "less is more" mentality, however, even with charging a monthly rate of $135, they will charge you for EVERYTHING. If you forgot a towel, it's $1, if you need water, it's $2, if you need a mat, it's more. - They didn't have a water fountain. How can a fitness facility, especially holding classes in over 100 degrees not have a water fountain? Pretty much you have to BUY a plastic water bottle if you need water. This upset the yogi in me. - They didn't cap their classes. I would always try to arrive 10-15 minutes beforehand to setup my space and relax in the room. If more people arrived, they were relentless on asking you to "squish in". At one point, I counted over 40 people in the room. When your neighbor is literally sweating on your mat, the experience is ruined. If this was a free class, I would understand, but each person is paying quite a bit to be there. - Although the actual studio was spacious, the lobby and bathrooms were too cramped. Sure, they have two bathrooms and a separate shower, but there's no locker room. Essentially after class, you either had to be extra aggressive to get a bathroom or had to wait around, dripping in sweat, in order to have a chance to change. This aspect of the experience wasn't enjoyable. The best parts of this facility are the instructors. I had some great yoga sessions, but it wasn't worth the money to me."
