Bikram Yoga (London)

Customer service is something very strange to those who work there. Starting from impudent reception staff totally lacking in social courtesy, unfriendly, abrasive, and unhelpful. A teacher called Sindy Haque behaved completely unprofessionally by saying to a tutee 'crazy' 'shut your mouth' while in the class and said that was allowed in the Bikram ethos. And ending with the management who did not do anything to apologise after that for the awful customer service. If you enjoy being spoken to disrespectfully visit Bikram Yoga Canary Wharf.

Fantastic teachers. Still learning and fine tuning my practice after almost 3 years. They could do better by sticking to 40 degrees heat 40 humidity though in my view.

By far the best yoga studio in London I have ever been to. Excellent teachers and a motivating atmosphere. Can't recommend enough.

BYL let this yogi down sadly :-( As per their Ts & Cs, they take complaints seriously, but not in my case. It's turning out to be quite a time-consuming drama to sort out. Shame as I had high hopes for the place. I recommend Hot Yoga Society as a professional, dynamic, friendly alternative. Namaste Everyone!

I have been going to BYL at Canary Wharf on and off for over 4 years now and find it to be one of the best yoga studios, certainly in London. Having started Bikram Yoga while living in Singapore, I found in BYL the same level of discipline and commitment to the yoga practice than back East. From the quality of the teachers, the varied schedule to the spotless facilities, BYL cannot be faulted. The management and staff are super friendly and approachable for advice and will do whatever they can to accommodate needs and requests. The 90-minute bikram practices are taught at an excellent level, yet providing guidance to first-timers and experienced yogis alike. The teachers have each their style but all follow the necessary bikram discipline to the letter. This consistency in teaching is important and what ultimately gets one the benefits and results one aspires to. I'd highly recommend any of the practices, though Martha, Lottie and Sangeeta are my personal favourites, but I'd also recommend the weekend candle-lit practice which although usually busy is quite a unique experience.

An excellent first time Bikram yoga experience. I was sweating more than I've ever sweat in my life and yet somehow felt perfectly comfortable about it because of the instructor's light hearted jokes.

The studio is spotless as are the showering facilities/changing rooms - no lingering sweat smells :p

Afterwards I felt elated and thoroughly cleansed, if you're thinking of giving Bikram a try I'd recommend Bikram Yoga London wholeheartedly!
