Bodē was an early player in New York’s yoga scene, with the founders Jen Lobo and Donna Rubin offering the first Hot Bikram Yoga sessions back in 1999. Bodē are still a leading brand in the city’s Hot Yoga scene, with locations in Flatiron, Upper East Side and Upper West Side.

You can expect a challenging class at Bodē with studios that are heated to 105°F, but the studio very much welcomes yogis of all backgrounds and ability levels, with their website stating that “no flexibility is required”. With over two decades of experience, the team are keen to help you discover and fall in love with the practice.
