Zweet Sport I Hot Yoga & Total Fitness: Opinions

Fantastic experience: This yoga school is not just a hot yoga studio. It’s a home to many wonderful and skilled teachers from different lineages. They put people and practice of yoga at the forefront of their business and that’s why they are so invested in building a community of like minded people. Definitely check it out, try to get their own membership instead of ClassPass if you could as that would mean you’re supporting the small business directly. Namaste.
Thank you for this great review. We're so pleased you appreciate our community!
Fantastic experience: This is an extremely welcoming studio! I was visiting from Seattle and I was very impressed by the professionalism and kind atmosphere at Rising Sol. I took the 26-2 class, and I am still using one of the cues I heard during my class in my current practice. I wish I could have taken more classes here during my trip!
Jacqueline, thank you for your kind words and thank you for visiting while you were here. We hope to see you again!
Fantastic experience: I had an awakening experience at Hot Yoga. Elena was our instructor and she was absolutely amazing! Can’t wait to visit again!
Sasha, we love a good awakening! Thank you for the review and we hope to see you soon. Be well, Rising Sol

Fantastic experience: Amazing Class ! A great release and full body workout :)
Brya, thank you for the kind words! We are so glad you visited and hope to see you soon. Thank you, Rising Sol
Fantastic experience: I love this yoga studio. I have now been going for over a year, and the Hot Power Flow with Barbara is my favorite class by far. She is so knowledgeable. I learn something new from her in each class. I highly recommend this studio.
Katie, It is a pleasure to have you as a member of our community! Thank you for your positive review.
Fantastic experience: Great place for hot yoga. Nothing like it actually.
Jane,
Thank you so much for the 5 star review. We appreciate you!
Be well,
Rising Sol
Fantastic experience: This place gets packed, gets hot, and you'll be looking at a waiting list if you wait until the last minute. But it's a great way to get your body moving for a workout or recovery.
Chino,
We're thrilled to see that you enjoy our yoga school. And, yes! Weekends and specific class times get very busy- we encourage all to preregister in advance! See you at yoga soon!
Fantastic experience: I have been attending Rising Sol since February 2022, and it's long overdue for me to share my love for this place and, more importantly, the people. The instructors are truly exceptional, each bringing their unique strengths and energy to the classes. Barbara is amazing, whether it's power flow or hips and hamstrings. Her great playlists are a bonus! Kimberly excels in her workshop-style Bishnu Ghosh classes, where I learned the breakdown of poses and when to progress. Katie is excellent at pacing her Vinyasa class, introducing new movement flows and challenging stability, which has greatly improved my balance. Amy is both encouraging and challenging in her Tone and Stretch and Hip and Hamstrings classes. And Kelynn has recently started Warm Yin, and I absolutely love her vibe and energy with this new style. And those are just a few of the fantastic instructors at Rising Sol. Every instructor here is extraordinary in their style and impressive at creating a welcoming and accessible class. Pick any class, and you will have an incredible experience. Be prepared to sweat and remember to stay hydrated for 24-48 hours afterward!
Jessica, we love you and we appreciate you loving us back! And yes: HYDRATE! Thank you for your kind words and great advice.
Fantastic experience: I love the variety of classes and teachers, heat is just to the perfect amount and the instructors are all doing a great job. I love this studio.
Anna, thank you for being a member of our community!
Fantastic experience: A great studio and yoga community to learn and practice. This is a studio where the instructors take time to know and greet everyone by name. Kimberly (Bishnu Ghosh 90) will challenge you, yet she is patient with all of her students, old and new. She is one of those rare instructors that takes the time to explain the how and the why of the postures. I also tried the power flow - that is one of the most challenging 60 mins. Of yoga flows I’ve ever tried. Non stop moving! I started at the studio with the hips, spine and hamstring 60 which is a great practice and good introduction to the hot room. This is not like other studios so come with an open mind to practice and grow.
Joe, we appreciate your kind words so very much and are delighted you are a part of our community!
Fantastic experience: Love this place! I've been practicing for more than ten years. As a military family with frequent moves, this studio has by far been our favorite.
Shalinda - we are equally grateful for you. Thank you for being a part of our community.
Fantastic experience: I love this place so much best thing I’ve done in my life♥️
Julia - we are very grateful to have you as part of our community. Thank you so much for supporting us.
Fantastic experience: I started doing Hot Yoga here a year ago and was instantly hooked. They have very flexible schedule and many different types of yoga. All instructors are welcoming from advanced to beginner. I have been to every class and recommend each one. If you are experiencing low back pain, the Bishnu Ghosh and 26 / 2 taught by Kimberly, Christine, and Katie is the best medicine.
Thomas - thank you for this thoughtful review. We appreciate you sharing your experience, with others, at Rising Sol. Grateful you are part of our community.
Fantastic experience: I love this studio. The teachers are very knowledgeable and friendly. The community is caring and supportive. The owner, Kimberly is a true master and she has had a meaningful impact on my practice. Namaste
Mo - thank you for taking the time to write this review, and for supporting us at Rising Sol. So happy to have you as our student -
Negative experience: This place is unsanitary and they pack people in like sardines. There is no space or room to move around and you will have others dripping their sweat on you. The environment is unfriendly and cliquey.
Tiffany, I am disappointed to see a review that reflects less than an amazing experience at Rising Sol. Like many of the responses to your previous reviews, I cannot find record that you have visited our studio. I would love the chance to discuss our class size (limited to 30, mats evenly spaced throughout the room), our sanitation (organic cleaning cloths provided to all students, full disinfecting mop between each class), and our community. I am available at (703) 261-4452 if you would like to chat. Be well, Barbara, studio manager
Fantastic experience: This was my first hot yoga experience with instructor Amy. Challenging but so fun! Glad I got to experience this. Everyone was so nice. I highly recommend this place!
Jessica,
Thank you for visiting and for your review. We love Amy too! Hope to see you again soon.
-Rising Sol Yoga School
Fantastic experience: The room is HOT and the instructors are fantastic! AND Kimberly is simply one of the best yoga teachers in the area! If you love hot yoga and you are in the northern virginia area I recommend checking out Rising Sol for a class or a workshop!
Fantastic experience: I absolutely love Rising Sol Hot Yoga! The teachers here are truly amazing - they are knowledgeable, encouraging, and provide great guidance throughout the practice. The studio itself has a welcoming and friendly environment, which makes me feel comfortable and at ease every time I walk through the door. The classes are challenging but also invigorating, leaving me feeling refreshed and rejuvenated after each session. I highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: A fantastic local studio with a range of classes and teachers
Haley, thank you for the kind words and, more importantly, for being a member of our community! Namaste, Barbara, Studio Manager
Negative experience: I found their staff rude. Beware that they close their doors right on time. I was late just 3 mins once and couldn’t get in. I waited for the next class thinking they could just let me switch since I already paid for the class, but instead the instructor wanted me to pay for the next class. Not forgiving at all to people’s schedules. They should either invest in having lockers customers can put their belongings to or message customers a code to get in as some other studios do. Very disappointed since I heard good things about this place.
Olesya, thank you for sharing your feedback with us. It was a pleasure to speak with you earlier today, and I'm disappointed you found the clarity I offered rude. Rising Sol strives to provide a safe environment for our students and their belongings and allow classes that are uninterrupted by latecomers. This is why our doors lock at the published class start time. We include this information on our ClassPass page, on our website, and on all of our receipts. The investment of a front door person isn't an effective return on investment for a small business and would not provide an uninterrupted class experience. I hope that you will find a yoga home that will better meet your needs. Thank you again for your feedback, Barbara, Studio Manager
Fantastic experience: I dropped in for an early morning flow with Amy while traveling from out of town. This is a great studio and I felt very welcome joining the group even as a beginner. Thank you, Rising Sol, for your hospitality and encouragement.
Benjamin, thank you for visiting us while you were in town! We hope we will see you again. Namaste.
Negative experience: So glad I can finally post this review now that I've moved away from the area and won't bump into people I know from the studio. It has a culty/cliquey vibe and I didn't want to deal with any drama for talking about this. A few years ago, around the end of 2021 or maybe early 2022, I was struggling with an eating disorder, like really, really going through it. I lost a ton of weight in an unhealthy way and wasn't proud of it. During class one day the owner, Kimberly, called out in the middle of the class in front of everyone: "Hey A A, you lost weight, you look great" and I was just like, "Um, thanks" hoping she would leave it at that. But she kept going, "What are you doing differently? I bet you feel a lot better. Do you feel a lot better?" ...this was in a room full of people in the middle of a yoga class; we were literally moving from a downward dog into a high plank when she said it. It was a truly violating experience and Kimberly either couldn't tell or didn't care that I was uncomfortable. I'm doing a lot better now but I often think about how inappropriate her comments were. Commenting on someone's body? In a yoga class? Yikes.
Fantastic experience: I was deeply immersed in the yoga experience at Sol Rising Hot Yoga! The studio exudes a sense of oneness with the practice and a genuine connection with like-minded individuals. Their diverse classes, from Hot Hamstrings, Hips + Spines to Hot Dharma, from Hot Intermediate Hatha to Hot Power Flow, provided limitless opportunities to explore and expand my practice. The free community class on Saturdays embodied the true essence of seva (selfless service) and added to the sense of yoga unity. Highly recommended for all yogis seeking a harmonious and authentic journey!
Fantastic experience: My husband and I love this place. Rising Sol has such an amazing community. You are never a stranger for long at this place. The students and teachers alike work to make this studio a special place to connect with your body and mind but also with each other. The classes are fantastic and the instructors can't be beat. Come by and give it a try - I promise you, you will not find a better place to practice yoga.
Fantastic experience: This is the best yoga studio I have been to in Northern Virginia. The women who run this studio and their instructors have cultivated an amazing community. The classes offered at Rising Sol are challenging and accessible to all levels. I highly recommend this studio to anyone who wants to practice yoga regularly or who just needs to drop in on a class or two while they are in town.
Fantastic experience: I’ve just moved to the area from California and have been on a quest to find my new yoga studio. The 3 instructors I’ve had so far have been wonderful. Amy’s 6:15 pm “Hot Tone and Stretch” class on March 8th, was it for me though. It was pure magic and I slept like baby that night. I’m excited to continue my yoga practice with Rising Sol!
Negative experience: This yoga studio deserves one star, as it is the lowest rating. Edit: (response to the reply) This rating reflects a fair assessment of the studio based on my experience.

Jane, Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. We take all customer reviews seriously although we were surprised to see a review in March 2024 when you haven’t visited our business since November 2023. You also previously provided a review without much detail through the third party vendor ClassPass. I have sent an email to your business email address on file and welcome the opportunity to discuss your specific concerns directly. I am available at the studio number listed. Thank you again for your input. -Barbara, studio manager
Fantastic experience: Incredible staff that are always accommodating and focused on you having a good experience.
Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to Rising Sol ☀️ for about 2 years now. At first, I would buy the 10 class pass and use it over 3 months every few months. Then i started really enjoying the community / teachers so I decided that I wanted to see what would happen if I put my gym membership on hold (you know… cause we on a budget ) and tried unlimited for 3 months and never looked back. So glad I did! The classes are for all levels, the app is so easy (!!) to use/book and all you need is to make it to the studio. 100% recommend and wish to welcome you to this community. My favs during the week are "Hamstrings, Hips and Spines" (great for moving more slowly & recovery), Hot Tone (usually there’s a focus area) and Power at 8am on Sundays or 7:30s with Chris & Barbara during the week. Update: Feb 2024 I decided to try my hand at teacher training and it was the best decision I made in 2023!
Fantastic experience: Top notch teacher, great schedule, and wonderful empowering atmosphere!
Fantastic experience: Nothing but good experiences at Rising Sol.
Fantastic experience: I have been a student of rising sol since it’s inception. I no longer live in Alexandria, but I make sure to stop in any time I’m back it town. It has a strong community, knowledgeable and competent teachers, and a warm atmosphere. It’s the best!
Fantastic experience: Great instructors at Rising Sol yoga! The community there is always welcoming. I’ve enjoyed their retreats- well planned, positively focused, an enriching and uplifting time.
Fantastic experience: ¡Me encanta este estudio! Las clases son desafiantes y estimulantes. Supportive teachers who give the space for your own practice.
Fantastic experience: Great studio that I have gone to since 2016! Enjoy!!
Fantastic experience: Love this place! So fun and everyone is so nice
Fantastic experience: For lovers of hot yoga in a welcoming environment.
Fantastic experience: Really hot and really nice management!
Thank you for coming in, Kennedy!
Fantastic experience: The best hot yoga!!
Thank you so much, Paula!
Fantastic experience: Best yoga studio in Old Town. The owner and teachers are awesome. Warm and friendly community,
Fantastic experience: Great teachers. Toby did a good job teaching the 7:30p Power flow class today
Positive experience: Best HOT yoga place I’ve found in the northern VA area.
Fantastic experience: Best hot yoga on the va side of the river. Wonderful and warm community come practice
Fantastic experience: This studio embodies yoga philosophy is all senses. Not the highest-tech, state-of-the-art facility trying to sell me oils and beads as I walk in. Just EXCELLENT hot yoga from instructors who are knowledgeable, friendly, highly-trained, and who care about every single participant in every class, regardless of size, shape, or level of practice. If you want a complete yoga community, please go to Rising Sol!
Fantastic experience: I have been a student here for several years even before the pandemic. I love all the teachers, they are so willing to help me understand the poses and to remind me to BREATHE. The variety of their classes offers something for everyone. They create a supportive community.
Fantastic experience: Five stars! Great instructors, great vibe, great students. You can create your own experience - from savasana to crane pose - you do you. I always leave feeling better than when I walked in. I plan on NamaSTAYing with Rising Sol for the long haul.
Fantastic experience: Great teachers! I wish they had a "buddy pass" (once a month?) for those of us with the unlimited monthly pass and did cold towel after the class but even without those things I do still enjoy coming to this studio.
Fantastic experience: Great classes and community, overall one of the best work outs! Even when it gets too hot and all you want is a lil child pose, there's no pressure to go all out. Will always come back to Rising Sol!
Fantastic experience: My first yoga studio for the win! Friendly informative staff, great facility (a nice shower!) and very clean. Love the community too. I’m hooked
Fantastic experience: I love coming here and particularly classes with Amy. I always feel comfortable doing what I can, taking suggested modifications, and resting when I need to. I look forward to seeing how my practice evolves!
Fantastic experience: I just celebrated my sixth month at Rising Sol and am thrilled to have stumbled upon this gem. Classes are consistently high quality and the studio is clean and welcoming. Students of all backgrounds and skill levels are supported equally and the instructors always have a smile on their face and are eager to help you grow in your practice. I love supporting a woman owned business and recommend this studio 100%!
Fantastic experience: I have been coming to this studio for over four years now. This yoga community has become an important part of my life and has helped me improve myself mentally, physically, and spiritually. The teachers emphasize doing your best at whatever you are able to do today and not compare yourself to others or what you *think you should b e able to do. This principle has helped me in other areas of my life too. Accept yourself and be kind to yourself. Highly recommend Rising Sol if you're looking for a yoga home!
Fantastic experience: I used to be a devoted CorePower member until I discovered Rising Sol after moving to Old Town. Let me tell you, Rising Sol takes yoga to a whole new level. Their classes never leave you feeling burnt out and they constantly switch things up to keep it interesting. The dharma meditation sessions are so peaceful and rejuvenating. The hot hips and spine classes really bring a spark to my practice. And of course, the Hot Power flow is absolutely incredible. Rising Sol has easily become my favorite yoga studio without a doubt. I decided to go all in and get the unlimited membership back in June, and trust me, it's worth every penny!
Fantastic experience: I've been going to this studio for about a year and I absolutely love it! I look forward to coming to class every day. The teachers are incredibly supportive and provide excellent guidance. Highly recommend coming to Rising Sol if you're looking for an amazing hot room! :)
Fantastic experience: I took hot yoga classes here consistently about 6-7 months ago for about a year and I loved it. The instructors, Kimberly and Christine are excellent. They were clear with their directions and demonstrated how to slowly and confidently master the stretches based on your skill level. I actually miss taking classes with them now that I’ve moved out of state. Would definitely recommend for anyone interested in learning hot 26 yoga!
Samantha, thank you for the review!
Fantastic experience: Great studio and wonderful teachers. I have thoroughly enjoyed each class I’ve attended. Love the multiple class options and various times throughout the day. Come check out hot yoga, you won’t regret it!
Fantastic experience: Took me a long time to find a studio post Covid that was as accepting and inclusive as Rising Sol. Great instructors. Diverse classes. Fantastic space. Complete acceptance of all levels of yoga. Don’t skip an opportunity to take a class here! I’ve been coming here since 2022 and I have found a sanctuary. The teachers stress practice over perfect. And there are always modifications to meet you where you are that day and in your yoga learning journey. So many different kinds of yoga taught- power, vinyasa, ashtanga, nidra, yin, bishnu gosh. With fun pop up, community and workshop classes. And yes, there’s easy street parking. And blocks to use and mats for rent. Showers. Changing rooms. They have it all. This studio is a MUST for any yogi (or even yogi-curious) passing through Old Town
Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to this studio since late 2020, that’s when I first tried hot yoga. I’ve had the best experience here. The instructors/teachers are always prepared and I’ve continued to learn over the course of three years. I’ve tried other studios in the area, but Rising Sol (formerly known as Zweet) is my favorite because they are all very knowledgeable. I definitely recommend!
Fantastic experience: I love going to class here and being a part of the community. The owner is very professional and knowledgeable. The teachers are so talented and authentic. Each one of them brings a special energy to the classes they teach. All of the ones I've been to genuinely make you feel seen and want their students to grow and improve their practice. The facilities are clean, parking is accessible on the nearby streets, and I really appreciate their organized and flexible booking process. This place is one of my favorite things about living in Alexandria and I'm so happy I found it. The students that come here also have a very welcoming and helpful vibe.
Fantastic experience: I’ve spent one year at this studio and absolutely love it. Great instructors and the classes vary on their focus and intensity. Hot yoga has really helped me mentally and physically and this studio is very convenient in location. I’ve never felt healthier and recommend that everyone try hot yoga at least once if they’re able to. They also offer package deals and will offer retreats throughout the year.
Fantastic experience: Super hot and friendly. Lots of variety of yoga classes -- I've only done 26&2 but it's a cozy and welcoming place. I appreciate the 10:30 am class on Sundays -- no need to wake up at dawn and it's a convenient location if youre coming from across the river.
Thank you for your thoughtful review, Mayra.
Positive experience: I really like this studio, and I'm considering a membership. But, I went to a class this week for a first time in a while and I was disappointed to learn there were no wipes or mat wash to clean off the blocks/mat. I even inquired with the instructor after class. This is basic hygiene, and at $150+ for a monthly membership, this seems like the very least they could provide.
Hi Alexandra, we actually do have wipes/mat cleaner. It is located in the same place as the blocks and straps. Next time just ask one of us, and we will gladly assist you! thank you.
Fantastic experience: WOW. I instantly felt warmth from this yoga community. I love practicing yoga & have been searching for a home studio since moving to town. This. Is. The. Spot. Yogi’s. You will feel free to play on your mat with great instruction. It’s truly “your flow” here. Barbara & Mallory’s classes have been… in two words….Zen & Detoxing. Can’t wait for my next class.
Fantastic experience: Excellent place!! Wonderful staff. Peaceful space. Get Hot Yoga 26 postures without supporting fugitive Bikram and his followers (see Netflix documentary or Google Bikram Choudhury).

Positive experience: the best
Fantastic experience: This place is amazing! Each time I finish a class, I immediately look at my schedule to figure out the next time I can come back.
Fantastic experience: Great community and a nice space to spend time practicing yoga.
Fantastic experience: The yoga studio is a true yogi community! Inclusive and welcoming with attentive teachers, a passionate business owner and a mix of regulars and visitors in every class. A true gem in the heart of Old Town, Alexandria.
Fantastic experience: Awesome studio with excellent teachers, easy parking, and clean facilities. I have had nothing but great experiences at Zweet Sport over the past 7 months and highly recommend the studio to all looking for a place to practice yoga .
Fantastic experience: I am a novice. I have attended Kim's and Marja's classes. Both are very good and patient. You get your money's worth. Zweet sport has made me stronger and flexible for boxing conditioning, core studio workouts, and intensive free weight workouts.
