Yoga has a never ending list of benefits for both your body and your mind. So many in fact, that more and more people are turning to it as a form of regular exercise.
We have put together some of the benefits that you might experience practicing hot yoga with us;
In a heated environment, such as our studio, we allow our muscles to warm up quicker and be more relaxed when we start our practice. This means you can stretch a little further and achieve a greater range of motion.
It isn’t a HIIT class or Crossfit, but the way we move through and hold postures does stimulate our metabolic system. We bring our heart rate up and bring our body into a state where it starts to burn calories more readily.
The focus we use during our practice helps to clear the mind. While the stimulation of our nervous system helps to balance our hormones.
One of the benefits of sweating in a warm environment is that it can improve circulation, bringing oxygen- and nutrient-rich blood to skin cells. This, in turn, may help to nourish your skin from the inside.
This classic hot yoga practice, also known as Bikram yoga, is made up of a set sequence of 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises all done in our studio heated to between 36-38°c. Enjoy the radiant heat that comes from our infrared heating panels as you move through your class, strengthening all the muscles of the body, developing flexibility and developing focus.
Be prepared to work hard, sweat and surprise yourself.
