⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Joining Hartford Sweat was honestly a life-changing decision for me. I came in feeling completely burnt out, exhausted, and just wanting to find a healthier, more balanced way to get back into working out—and this was exactly what I needed. After just a few classes, I fell in love with it. If you’re into HIIT-style workouts that actually focus on strengthening and toning with intentional, real results, this is the place. Kerry and Pam’s classes are incredible—they create routines that are so unique and challenging in the best way. It’s the kind of workout that pushes you while also being something you can carry into your everyday lifestyle. The staff are amazing—so understanding, supportive, and genuinely inspiring. They make you feel comfortable while still motivating you to push yourself. They also offer a variety of classes, and every one I’ve tried has been just as amazing—there’s truly something for everyone. On top of that, the prices are very reasonable, and the facility is always clean, modern, and well-maintained. You can tell a lot of care goes into the entire experience. Highly recommend if you’re looking to feel strong, energized, and motivated again.
Thank you! We love hearing people's success stories and keeps us going - will with share with our staff and keeps us so energized!
I was just in town for a quick work trip and did a fantastic Bikram class with the studio owner, Rakyel! She was so welcoming and kind, I wish I could practice here every day.
Thank you for the kind words, Sydney! We'll be here and look forward to seeing you again next visit to Hartford 😀 💦
Beautiful studio and great class options. We enjoyed our class and the instructors!! We will be back next time we are in Hartford
Thank you, Salle! We will look forward to your next visit 😊
Great staff, and the facilities are up kept very well. It's a gem in Hartford. I couldn't recommend more.
Thank you Jared! Means so much to the teachers & staff to have their hard work recognized - keeping Hartford Healthy :).
I love this place! The instructors are amazing, the place is clean and the class times work with my schedule. I'd choose a family owned place over a corporation 10x over and over again.
Wow! Made our day - love sharing these reviews with the staff & teachers!!
Phenomenal yoga studio in Hartford. They have true bikram classes 90 minutes in 104 degree room. It's intense. There are plenty of other classes if that's not your jam Very welcoming environment even for beginners like me Special parking relationship with a local garage for easy inexpensive access Showers in the bathroom for after class Can't say enough good things about them I am now a member
Truly honored with the encouraging feedback and will share with the teachers! This is a highlight for them to hear it, especially the true Bikram because our Bikram teachers work very hard at keeping this strong. ~Tory
I love the classes here, but unfortunately can't go anymore. Hartford is too crazy with parking tickets. I recieved 3 parking violation tickets and the 3rd towed me car which I had to pay 150 for! I had no idea they were going to have an event on trumbull street on Sunday. My car along with so many others, got towed from trumbull street because they put a tiny temporary no parking sign. I am sure if it was there at 8 am when I parked there, all these other people wouldn't have parked as well. I don't think the entire street would have been filled with parked cars if the signs were actually there. I just decided that I'm going to stop going to Hartford unless it absolutely necessary. So sad about missing these classes though :( Hartford is just not a good location.
Hey Jaclin, thank you and totally understand challenges to getting familiar with downtown, so there are a few things we are doing about this to make this streamlined for customers that are not frequent in downtown: (1) always recommend using the garage at 55 Pearl with studio validation $3/3hr (2) a new member parking map with times, tips, and prices, (3) we now have direct contact with the HPD to get notification and assistance for closure events, parking closures and all cars removed is now required safety precaution for street celebrations. More updates as we get additional info - we are also working with the hartford parking authority on options to help, so we'll announce and update as soon as we have more info.
Visiting Hartford and really wanted a hot yoga class that matched my daily practice at my home studio. Hartford sweat exceeded my expectations, I took the express Bikram and found it accommodating to all levels yet plenty challenging,the facilities are so clean, and the people are kind and attentive. I can’t recommend it enough.
I love going to this place!! I wish, however, that there was less disparity between instructors. Some help me get an excellent workout in, while others seem not prepared or enthused to be teaching.
Hi Sami, thank you for being honest about your experience and would like to say bad day because our teachers work super hard to bring 100% every day and most of them have been with us for years, but my apologies if it wasn't what you expected. Contact me directly and we'll make sure to help find your style that works best at the studio. ~Tory
