Traditional Hot Yoga
Traditional Hot Yoga is a therapeutic style of Hatha Yoga from northern India consisting of 26 postures or "asanas" and two breathing exercises. It is a beginner's series taught in 60 or 90 minutes. Each pose is a challenge based on one's personal abilities. The postures are done in the safe environment of a heated room in order to relieve one's body resistance without risking injury.
This yoga series is strength-based. What makes this style unique is that rather than flowing through postures (one breath per motion), you spend time in postures for your body to strengthen and remember them. The postures are cardiovascular and will elevate your heart-rate to burn calories.
The beauty of this yoga is that it can be practiced by anyone--it’s safe for beginners and challenging for veterans. In the same class, you will find teenagers, professional athletes and seniors. As you increase strength, flexibility and balance in your body, you will be energized, you will revitalize your mind, and you will progress towards eliminating conditions of daily stress and fatigue.
All teachers are Bikram-certified with 500+ hours of training.
