Frequently Asked Questions - What you need to know. 

Can a beginner attend any Hot Yoga Studio class?

Yes, all classes are targeted toward beginners. However, experienced Yogis can attend any class and our instructors will modify postures for them.

What do I need to bring to class?

It is recommended to bring water, a towel, and a yoga mat.
If you don't have a mat or towel, you can rent or purchase them at the studio. 

Makeup, gum, keys, bags, shoes, jewelry, and phones should be left in your car, your bag, or in the locker room. 

How Often should I perform Bikram Yoga?

As often as possible, the more you practice the more you will see progress and results.
For good results, it is recommended to practice Bikram Yoga 3 times per week. For life-changing results, it is recommended to practice Bikram Yoga 4 or more times per week.
If you are a professional or amateur athlete, it is recommended to supplement your training with Bikram Yoga 1-2 times a week.

​In order to be effective yoga should be practiced on a regular basis with no long lapses of time between lessons. A minimum commitment of 10 classes in 30 days is recommended to maintain benefits from this yoga program.

Can I lose weight from performing Bikram yoga?

Yes, if you have it to lose. Bikram says you will have a new body with 60 days of daily practice. Each posture combines flexibility, strength and balance to work your whole body from bone to skin. With regular practice you can lose inches and develop muscle tone, strength and stamina. The postures help to release bound-fat cells and work the endocrine glands to fire up your metabolism. Warm muscles burn fat more effectively. When we stretch the fat has no room to sit so it redistributes to the blood stream which we use as energy. For those who wish to lose weight, Bikram recommends coming to classes earlier in the day.

Do I need to be flexible to participate in YOGA OR OTHER CLASSES AT THE hOT yOGA sTUDIO?

This is the most common misconception that prevents people from coming to a yoga class. Yoga is not about how flexible you are , it is about stretching your body and spine in all directions. If you simply try the right way, your balance, endurance and flexibility will naturally increase. You will be receiving 100% of the benefits. In fact, if you are not flexible, can’t touch your toes, or maybe can’t even see your toes, you are an excellent candidate for yoga!

Furthermore, our trained instructors will guide you to ensure you are stretching and doing poses correctly. 

Why the Heat?

Our room is heated to warm up the muscles and to allow you to work deeply and safely. The heat and humidity helps prevents injuries and promotes sweating which flushes toxins of your body. 

I am new to yOGA. What do I need to get starteD?

All you have to bring is 1) a yoga mat, 2) a towel, and 3) a large water. We offer introductory rate for new students who want to try it out and monthly memberships who wish to make everything we offer at Hot Yoga studio as part of their regular practice.

What should I wear to class?

Running shorts, tank top, sports bra, yoga leggings all work. Avoid loose or baggy clothing. They will be soaking wet and very heavy within minutes.
