Hot Yoga Studio Teachers
Eva Vidal
I am the founder and owner of the Hot Yoga Studio located in downtown Redmond, Oregon.
I began practicing hatha yoga in 1992. I started yoga as a way to reduce stress and
manage sciatic pain, and instantly fell in love with yoga's positive effects in my
body and mind. Yoga's meditative qualities lead me deeper into the study of
asana, meditation and pranayama. I received my teaching certification in Bikram's
Beginning and Advanced Yoga Series in 1997. I continued my studies with by completing the
renowned YogaWorks 200 hr Ashtanga/Iyengar training with Mary Ezraty and Lisa Wilford in
1998, Ana Forrest 200hr Yoga Intensive in 1999, and Dona Holleman's Iyengar training in
2002. In 2004, I bought my first yoga studio in Costa Mesa, CA, and in 2006 I was initiated
into Kriya Yoga by Gurunath Siddhanath.

Ali Hallock
I was born and raised in sunny California, moved to Virginia at 17 where I lived for 15 years, and now live in Bend, Oregon. My husband and I (along with our 3 dogs) have traveled around the country a lot in the past 10 years, and having Bikram yoga available almost everywhere we've been makes every new place feel like home. I've been practicing Bikram yoga for 10 years and teaching for seven. This practice keeps me grounded and brings so much joy into my life . . . I will practice forever.
