Rising Sol Yoga School

Rising Sol Yoga School is a locally owned hot yoga studio in Old Town West, Alexandria. Reviewers say the heat is just right and call it the best place for hot yoga in the area. They mention power yoga and flow classes, a set Hatha series, and instructors who are knowledgeable, attentive and good at adapting cues for different levels, so intermediate classes remain accessible to beginners. The owner is said to have welcomed one newcomer personally on day one, and reviewers describe a warm, supportive community. The studio has natural light, lamps and ceiling fans, and a water filtration system that one reviewer praises. One member who works in fitness calls it one of the best yoga studios they have belonged to.

  I had been going to Rising Sol for the past 3 years. Kimberly truly has something special here. This is the place I miss the most since leaving NoVa. Shoutout to all the teachers, especially Janine and Amy. You guys are the best! Will be sure to visit

  I've worked in yoga and fitness on and off for the last ten years, primarily in heated environments. When I moved to Old Town, I signed up for the three-month membership, and I have to say: this studio truly is one of the best yoga studios I've ever been a member of. That goes for everything... the knowledge, classes, teachers, and environment. Added bonus: they have the best water filtration system. It feels like a "family," but not in that post-2015, monopolized group-fitness kind of way. Everyone is chill, friendly, and focused on their own practice. Absolutely recommend!
