The number of individuals practicing hot yoga across the United States has increased over the past decade, though the risks of hot yoga practice are not yet fully understood.  The American population in general has a high prevalence of a number of chronic health conditions including heart disease, asthma, and diabetes.  However, the risks for individuals with these pre-existing health conditions have not yet been identified. Methods: A large cross-sectional study (n=700) was conducted via online survey.  Results: A Chi-squared analysis was conducted to examine the relationship between various pre-existing health conditions and the incidence of an adverse outcome related to participation in hot yoga practice. Discussion: Every pre-existing health condition recorded in this study was a risk factor for at least one adverse outcome resulting from hot yoga practice.  Further study is required to verify populations most at risk and preventing injury or illness resulting from hot yoga participation. Conclusion:  Little is known about the risks of hot yoga practice for those with various health conditions.  This paper outlines the associations between hot yoga injuries and adverse outcomes and pre-existing health conditions. Keywords: Hot Yoga, Risks, Injuries, Pre-existing Conditions, Safety
