In Balance Hot Yoga is one of the best yoga studios I have been to. It was my first time trying Hot Yoga and I was a bit apprehensive but Bene and Ian were so welcoming and helpful during the practice. I now love it and I am so glad I have found this amazing studio in Southampton.read more

Having just moved to the area I was searching for a new hot yoga centre and I am thrilled to have found an amazing one! It was so useful to have a walk through of the premises by video on the website so you immediately felt at home. Everyone is very welcoming and the teachers make you feel totally at ease even when you find the positions difficult!
You come away from each class feeling amazing!read more

In balance hot yoga is the best yoga class I have ever attended. I had no previous experience of hot yoga, but all I can say is that it has changed my life. You feel energised, refreshed and calm after the class and I am sure the heat in the room contributes to these feelings. If you are suffering from anxiety and stress these classes will help you immensely, as life today can be quite hectic. Everyone is super friendly and the instructors are all amazing :) give it a try !read more

I joined this class because it was recommended by my physiotherapist and I haven't looked back since! I love it, I spend time during the day looking forward to practice, unwind before and during practice and then sleep really well. Everyone is really friendly and they can guide and assist you as much or as little as you need/want. I would highly recommend - I feel healthier in my body and mind! Thank you!read more

A perfect space to practice yoga. The studio and facilities are great - the new heaters are very powerful! Ian and Benedita are welcoming and helpful during each class. I have progressed from the low intensity to medium intensity class and can feel my practice improving with every visit. I’m so glad I started practicing as yoga has had a positive impact on my life and I won’t ever stop. Thanks!read more

Not a bad word to say about this place. I've done yoga at my local leisure centre for a few months but this place steps it up! Fun and challenging full body workouts. The teachers are all very knowledgeable and supportive in your practice helping you to go deeper in to your pose. The studio is always lovely and clean too. Doing yoga in heat is an oddly satisfying experience. I think the sweating allows you to let go and focus on the poses more. I look forward to every class and I can't stop telling everyone I meet about this place (and how good yoga is) 😁read more

Each class is something new and you learn so much. I would highly recommend coming along and joining in. Not only will you feel great but you will have so much fun. Honestly the best class I’ve ever been too! 😊read more

Discovering and becoming a member of the In Balance Hot Yoga community was the single-most, life-altering choice I made last year (2019). It has helped me to reconnect with myself, and in turn, has manifested in renewed and invigorated relationships (most notably, my family - husband and two daughters - and at work/school). My membership to In Balance Hot Yoga is an investment in myself: spiritually, physically, mentally and emotionally. It has empowered me and helped me regain some sorely-missed and much-needed balance. Thank you to my dear friend, Siema, for introducing me to the In Balance Hot Yoga family! xoread more

If you want to get out of your head & into your body, explore your mind & body sensations, I recomend that you give In Balance Hot Yoga Studio classes a try. It has changed my life in a lot of ways, it has reduced my stress & anxiety, removed my body pains, turned me into a more mindful person. Above all, it cleared away a very heavy black cloud that was on top of my head and made everything more clear. For that I am very grateful. Bene & Ian are pros and very focused in helping others improving their lifes and focusing on what matters. Give it a try. 🙌😊read more

I was so happy to come across In Balance Hot Yoga when looking for a new yoga studio in Southampton. I hadn't done hot yoga before and was initially nervous, however from the first class Ian and Benedita made me feel more than welcome. There is no pressure in the classes- everyone goes at their own pace and I quickly settled in. I've already noticed a real change in my flexibility, and look forward to how far I can go with In Balance.read more

In Balance Hot Yoga - Fantastic. Well taught, exhilarating, fabulous studio, amazing instructors. You are taken through each movement in a clear precise way with several alternatives catering for all abilities. The heat takes this to another level helping your body move into position. These classes leave you feeling physically worked and mentally peaceful. I absolutely love In Balance Hot Yoga.

I would love to say joining in In Balance Hot Yoga is the most correct decision I had made this year. It is a brilliant and fantastic experience I have ever ever felt in my life. After 12 lessons, I feel I am lighter and more active. I am more confident and I know what I want in my life. I am still in my beginner’s level. I feel there are lots of poses I need to learn, to do and to feel. Half Pigeon pose, Tree pose and Fish pose are the three poses I was not able to do from the beginning. But after watching Top Tips Friday, practicing in classes times by times, they are the three poses I’d love the most. Hot Yoga gives me motivation to do things which I will never ever think about before. A big THANK YOU to you!read more

Benedita and Ian are both very knowledgeable and encouraging teachers. I’ve done quite a few of the All Levels Dynamic class and it’s a great workout. It challenges you to try new things but you can also go at your own pace for what works for your body at the time. The studio space is great as well. I would definitely recommend yogis of all levels to come give it a try! You’ll definitely feel great and accomplished after completing a class!read more

I am just completing an introductory £30 for 15 days at the studio. I haven't done Yoga for years, too many to recall. What I have found is attentive teachers a variety of classes and lovely students, and the studio is just right and warm (sometimes hot). I have decided to take out a years membership and work across the classes to be challenged and work at a lesser pace to challenge and reward myself to a more flexible body and calmer approach to live. Now just need to get my own mat!read more

I've just come back from the hip opener workshop and my body feels amazing. My hip and lower back feels better than it has for a long time. Benedita was great in her delivery of the class, explaining the muscles around the hips we would be concentrating on in a clear concise way. I will be signing up for classes and another workshop soon. Thank you! And thank you to Ian for the coconut energy ball, it was a perfect snack to end the class.read more

I'm loving the new studio! The opening this week has gone really smoothly and I've already enjoyed a warm vinyasa class and a yin yoga class. Both classes were great, and it's so nice to be able to mix it up and try different styles. The facilities at the new studio are fab and I'm excited to be a part of the community there. Bene and Ian have been brilliant teachers for the 6 months I was going to Harbour Lights so I can't wait to see what the future holds in the new studio. Looking forward to the hip opener workshop on Saturday, eek!read more

I never imagined that practising Hot Yoga could get even better until I experienced the new studios yesterday ! Wow they are lovely and so wonderful to do yoga in. If you have never experienced yoga with Inbalance Hot Yoga before, than I urge you to try asap !
The sessions are challenging to a degree but you are encouraged to go at your own pace in a very safe space. It is exhilarating and relaxing at the same time. You’re encouraged to push your boundaries and overcome fears. I’m 51 but in the classes I feel 25 !read more

An amazingly friendly environment with a variety of classes to suit all yogis. I've practised various styles of yoga in different countries and studios over the years - there's definitely something special about Benedita and Ian's studio. I'm more aware about my body after each session and I really like how they correct your posture - to be honest I always felt intimidated by teachers correcting me until now. Highly recommended!read more

You cannot do yoga. Yoga is your natural state. What you can do are yoga exercises, which may reveal to you where you are resisting your natural state.
The teachers are all so nice and create such a lovely atmosphere.
They are very attentive and kind to you, correcting your poses to improve.
IBHY is highly recommended for everyone.read more
