I am interested in how effective the watch is during a yoga class. Specifically hot yoga. Being water resistant should help with the sweat; but does the iPhone need to be within a certain distance to record results?
Hi
Apple Watch should not be worn during hot yoga.
Whilst Other would be the most appropriate activity type for recording regular yoga using the Workout app, wearing your watch during hot yoga (which is performed in hot and humid conditions) would fall outside of Apple's handling guidelines for your Apple Watch.
Apple's advises that:
Your watch can be damaged and battery life shortened if used outside of this range.
Note that using your watch outside of Apple's handling guidelines may render your watch ineligible for service under warranty, AppleCare+ and/or chargeable repair service.

water resistance should be fine I've seen videos of people swimming with one on (though I would not recommend it)
it needs to be on your wrist to record results, it can sync those results back to the iPhone when thats in range again
I'm wondering more about the heat.
Should be fine - see operating temperature notes below. The watchas to be able to withstand a certain amount of temaerature/himidity fluctuation.
Operating temperature Apple Watch is designed to work best in ambient temperatures between 32° and 95° F (0° and 35° C) and be stored in temperatures between -4° and 113° F (-20° and 45° C). Apple Watch can be damaged and battery life shortened if stored or operated outside of these temperature ranges. Avoid exposing Apple Watch to dramatic changes in temperature or humidity. If the interior temperature of Apple Watch exceeds normal operating temperatures (for example, in a hot car or in direct sunlight for extended periods of time), you may experience the following as it attempts to regulate its temperature:
Out of interest how do you record it? As Pilates?
Can the Apple Watch be worn during yoga? Specifically hot yoga. And does the iPhone need to be nearby to record heart rate, etc?q
