Yoga Classes
Our Heated
classes use infrared heaters. Infrared heat works like the sun,
radiating their heat instantly to the person or objects within their
beam. The benefits of practicing yoga in infrared heat are
detoxification, burns more calories, boosts metabolism, reduces
cellulite, pain relief, improves immune function, improves skin
complexion and helps with arthritis. For more information on Infrared
heating go to our Facility page.
Hot Hatha Yoga
is practiced in our heated room and utilizes postures (asanas) to
stretch, tone and strengthen the entire skeletal system, working not
only the body’s frame but the internal organs, glands and nerves as
well. . All internal organs and glands are stimulated, balancing the
body’s natural chemical and hormonal levels. Much attention is given to
the spine and this produces a profoundly beneficial effect on the
nervous system. Breathing exercises (pranayama) refresh and cleanse the
body and help to control the mind. The union (yoga) of these two forces
(Asana and Pranayama), release physical and mental tension, liberating
vast resources of energy with increased mental power, clarity and
concentration. This practice over time will bring your being into peak
physical and mental condition.
Hot Hatha Flow
Yoga is practiced
in our heated room and links the postures practiced in a regular Hatha
class into a sequence of movements that "flow" with the breath in a more
vigorous series. Hatha Flow involves moving from one posture to another
with little rest in between. A rejuvenating class with a calm flow.
Hot
Power Flow
Yoga
- Strengthen, lengthen and burn more calories. Hot Power
Flow Yoga uses a fast flow sequence designed to work
upper body, lower body, and the core including abs to
build strength that’s balanced throughout all the large
and small muscles. Awaken and warm up your body and mind
with Sun Salutations, boost upper body strength and burn
fat with fluid, fast-paced sequences to leave you
feeling focused, energized & empowered. Both Hot Hatha
Flow and Hot Power Flow yoga classes are suitable for
beginners and those practicing on an advanced level.
