Welcome to Chesapeake Hot Yoga…
Learn and practice Yoga in the most traditional method. Our instructors teach and uphold the philosophy that Yoga is a healing science developed to keep the body fit from the inside out. We guide you through challenging, but manageable positions that every body can do. You will not be intimidated by ballerina type teachers asking you to put your foot behind your head or your toe in your ear.
You will be guided by a variety of registered teachers in a variety of styles to keep the mind and body free from boredom and routine.
No matter your body shape, age or fitness level, Yoga will awaken your entire body to a feeling of total well-being and youthful energy. Join any class on our schedule and feel welcome to be yourself!
A registered yoga instructor has completed rigorous training in pose, breath, philosophy, anatomy and physiology, and CPR. A registered teacher is educated above and beyond a “certified” teacher. Don’t settle for less.
“Words can not describe Yoga. One must experience it.”
- BKS Iyengar
Meet Arianna… Your Director
Like most people, Arianna came to yoga for physical relief from disease. Back in Japan, in early 1991, she found herself doing yoga for the first time. Soon she found herself in a classroom and spent many hours on her own entrenched in The Sivananda Companion to Yoga.

I have and still visit classes by instructors who are either not RYT200 or received it from somewhere other than Chesapeake Hot Yoga. The one thing I find consistent is the failure of the instructors to teach yoga. It is ...
