Ritual Hot Yoga - Wicker Park

Ritual Hot Yoga in Wicker Park is a heated studio where reviewers describe fast-paced, challenging and carefully planned classes alongside popular yin sessions for deep stretching and winding down. The room is lit by candles and has upscale touches such as a cold eucalyptus towel at the end of class, and playlists are often mentioned. Reviewers say the staff learn your name and check in on how you are doing, and several say they went from ClassPass drop-ins to members. Instructors named in praise include Damise, whose classes some regulars plan their week around, Callie and Goda. Beginners and people returning to a practice say they find the right level of challenge, and a membership perk is a monthly private lesson. The heat is intense at first.

  The most talented teachers across the board of any studio I’ve been to. Classes are super challenging and well planned. It’s extremely hot and fast paced but once you adjust you won’t be able to go back to anything else.

  I love ritual!! I started off last month using classpass and loved it! I would attend yin classes as a way to destress after work and spend some time with my bestie. After a month I was hooked! The staff is so welcoming and they all do a great job teaching. The staff makes an effort to remember your name, check in on how classes are going, and they make time for small talk between classes. Since then, I just finished my 10 day pass which was amazing!!! I got the opportunity to try red light yin, ritual hot yoga, and the align classes. All of these classes are great and have challenged me in new ways. I will be starting my monthly membership next week and I cant wait! I highly recommend Ritual and especially the wicker park location :D

  I can write books about this place. I recently told myself because I’ve left Chicago and practiced in other places…….”there’s yoga, then there’s RITUAL” 🧘‍♀️… I aspire to be a better person everyday. This place literally gives you a mat to that journey. Thanks Damise, Callie, Riley, The Amandas, Goda, Lauren, Kylie,Riley, Alina, Allyson, and Julia & Karina for making Ritual WP the home away from home none of us knew we needed. Ariel
