What are the benefits of hot yoga?

It is one of the best ways of improving your flexibility . Flexibility is  a process that can be improved over time by practising yoga regularly. Hot yoga can help you to achieve faster results as the heat allows you to move into deeper stretches more easily with lower risk of injury. Yoga is non-competitive practice so you can develop at your pace without trying to keep up with the person next to you and there are plenty of classes to suit all.

The heated studio allows muscles to stretch further and because your muscles are warm you at less risk of injury. By inducing sweating, toxins are emitted from your body leaving you feeling deeply cleansed, relaxed and fully rejuvenated.

What do I wear? 

You will sweat a lot so wear something comfortable and light. Think gym wear, leggings t-shirt/vest top for women, shorts and t-shirt for men.

What do I need to bring to class?

Yoga blocks and yoga straps are provided free of charge. For Hygiene reasons you are required to bring your own mat or large towel to place over the studio mat.  

You will also need water during the class, so please bring water. No glass containers please.

What should I eat before class ?

Yoga is best practiced on an empty stomach. Try not to eat 2-3 hours before class. 

Most importantly HYDRATE !! Drink plenty of water before, during and after class.
