How to prepare for Hot Yoga
What to Wear
The room is hot, most people are comfortable in minimal clothing that stretches easily when wet: for men, shorts with a liner, for women, shorts or leggings with a sports bra or tank top. Materials that wick moisture tend to be more comfortable than cotton.
What you’ll need
A yoga mat, a large towel and a water bottle for class. These items are also available at the studio for rental or purchase. You may want to bring an extra towel and change of clothes for a shower after class.
When to Arrive
The studio opens 30 minutes before class starts. Please allow enough time to get ready for class and have a few minutes to sit or lie quietly in the studio before class begins.
What to do in Advance
Come to class hydrated and with an empty stomach. If you do need to eat 1-2 hours before class, choose light foods.

FAQ
Increasing flexibility and strength are part of what happens with a regular practice. What is important is to get started, and allow the process to unfold!
- The heat enhances vasodilation, so that more blood is delivered to the muscles.
- When blood passes through warm muscles oxygen releases more easily from the hemoglobin.
- Muscles are more elastic, and less susceptible to injury.
- Heat during practice improves coordination.
- The heat reduces heart irregularities associated with sudden exercise.
- Fat burns more easily
Note: Muscles aren't the only beneficiaries of heat. Higher temperatures improve the function of the nervous system, meaning that messages are carried more rapidly to and from the brain and spinal cord.
We recommend attending yoga class at least 3 times per week in order to see and feel the physical and mental benefits that come with a dedicated practice!
Yes! There are two showers in each dressing room.
A study carried out in 2015 discovered that Bikram Yoga, also known as hot yoga, significantly improves lower body strength, strengthens both the upper body & shoulders, and helps keep the body balanced in health. The study also found that bone density, artery stiffness, blood lipids, and mindfulness were greatly improved.
Our yoga instructors have been practicing yoga for many years, and have experienced firsthand the positive health and mindfulness changes that come from practicing hot yoga.
