Class Styles
Hot yoga is all we do.
We practice in heat to release tension and resistance.
Heat improves flexibility, detoxifies our bodies, and allows energy to flow.
Our classes are appropriate for all levels, offering opportunities and challenges for beginner and seasoned practitioners alike.

SIGNATURE CLASS
Hips, Hamstrings + Spines
Our signature deep stretch class. This vinyasa-style sequence focuses on opening and stretching the back of the thighs, the muscles surrounding the pelvis, and each space between the vertebrae of the back, while also providing postures to strengthen.
Created by Rising Sol and taught since 2014.
MOVING MEDITATION
Vinyasa
A moving meditation focused on thoughtfully and fluidly entering and exiting each posture with breath. The sequence includes sun salutations, standing postures, back bends, and floor postures.
This quick-paced, dynamic sequence flows from one posture to the next using breath. The series is taught in an energetic bell curve designed to increase your heart rate steadily to an apex and then release your muscles into deep stretch and hip openers.
TRADITIONAL SERIES
Hot 26
This Bishnu Ghosh-created series, made famous by Bikram Choudhary, is 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises. Postures including standing poses and backbends are taught in a specific, unchanging order.
This is offered in a 75- and 90-minute format.

FULL BODY
Tone + Stretch
A full body yoga workout that engages the core throughout and focuses on lengthening and strengthening of all major muscle groups.
A hybrid flow/workshop class that builds on the Hot 26 blueprint — two sets of the 26 postures, breath work, and Salute to the Gods, with alignment instruction that breaks down intermediate and advanced variations. Traditional Hot 26 students can practice the basics while learning where to take the postures next.
A meditative practice of longer-held floor postures that stretch and stimulate the deep connective tissues, fascia, tendons, and ligaments — increasing flexibility, encouraging healthy energy flow, and deepening the mind-body connection. Normally taught at room temperature, Warm Yin adds the benefits of a heated practice.
