Bikram Yoga Chicago West Loop is the most consistent hot yoga studio in the city for 90 minute classes 3X day with the original dialogue, which I prefer.

The studio and shower facilities are spacious and clean. The teachers are absolutely first-rate!!!

Because Bikram yoga is so global, I've met people from all over the world at this studio! It always amazes me what a tight community we have!

I tried out other area yoga studios but found that most only featured hot yoga as a sideline to vinyasa, etc. -- it was not their main focus (only 3-4 classes each week & not at consistent times + most were only 60 minute classes).
That didn't really work for me.

Practicing Bikram Yoga makes me feel *amazing!* If you are looking for a 26/2 studio in Chicago, I totally recommend Bikram Yoga Chicago West Loop!

I had a great experience at BYWL last night! I'm new to Chicago and have been teaching and practicing at a studio across town and hadn't had the chance to check out BYWL. As a 14 year Bikram Yoga practitioner I've practiced and taught classes in dozens of hot yoga studios. BYWL is definitely one of the best. The heat / humidity was excellent, the studio design and mirrors are great, the lobby is comfortable and classy... an all around classic Bikram Yoga school. I was there to take a class from traveling teacher, Laju Choudhury, which was a cool way to try this studio for the first time. I hope to take some classes with some of the rest of the BYWL teachers in the future. I definitely recommend taking a class here if you get the chance.

This is an amazing old school Bikram studio ! Instructors are excellent, and it is a huge space. I used to live in Chicago and always stop through when I am back in town . Great vibes !

I have been coming here for weeks every morning but on the off chance I miss the morning class I try to pick up the one in the evening. I rode my bike 9 miles to get to today’s class and happened to get stopped at more lights than usual. I was relieved when I got there and checked the time that it was still 5:29. I rushed to the elevator and hit the button for the third floor only to find they had already locked the elevator. I realize that class starts promptly at 5:30 but if you’re cutting people off before then there needs to be some kind of notice. It would be one thing if I lived down the street but I literally put in the investment to bike 40 minutes to get to this class just to have to bike back with nothing to show for it when I got there on time?!?! That is unacceptable and I will not be returning. Not only that but when I called the person who answered patronizingly told me that “being on time is part of the yoga practice.” I WAS ON TIME! This is infuriating.

Amazing studio and incredibly kind staff!

I love BYWL! I used to practice Bikram yoga regularly in my 20s but life happened and got in the way which led me to abandon the practice for 10 yrs. After the longest hiatus, I decided to make time for Bikram again, and the 5:30AM class works out perfectly for me. I was a little intimidated to jump back in, but my fears and insecurities quickly went away upon walking into the space. All of the instructors are warm, welcoming, and encouraging. Even though Bikram yoga is intensely an independent practice, there is a sense of community here, and everyone is courteous to one another. The space is clean and the facility is well maintained. You will absolutely feel the heat and humidity that uniquely makes Bikram so bring your water bottle and get ready for a true physical, mental, spiritual transformation.

Bikram Yoga Chicago IL has created an experience that is just plain right. There is a feel of positive energy the moment one enters the studio. It has a very calming effect that prepares you for the session. The instructors are personable and very helpful and do make it a point to assist newbies.

Finally a yoga studio with integrity! Full 90 min classes taught by certified teachers. This studio is hands down the best in the Midwest!
