Our Story
Seattle's Original Hot Yoga Studio
You don't have to be flexible, calm, or in shape to start. You just have to show up. Everything else, the room teaches you.
Our History
Rooted in Fremont for over 30 years.
Sealevel was established in Seattle in 1996. It opened as Yoga College of India, later became Bikram Yoga Seattle, and for over 30 years, under longtime owners Kathy Allen and Kevin Cooke, it grew into the city's longest-running traditional hot yoga studio. The foundation has never changed: 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises in a heated room.
Under New Ownership
A new chapter, the same heart.
Sealevel is now owned by Alison, Brooke, and Pete, who came to it as practitioners first, drawn to this room the way you might be. Taking it on was never about changing what works. It was about making sure it lasts.
The 26 & 2 sequence still anchors the schedule, alongside Candlelit Yin. What is new is the growth around them: Hot 26 Fusion and Vinyasa Flow have joined recently, with Hot Pilates and Yoga Strength & Mobility on the way.
Their commitment is simple: keep Sealevel a great place to practice, look after the community that makes it what it is, and keep the doors open for another 30 years.
