Yoga Teaching

Hot yoga is done in a room heated to 40.5°C with a humidity level of around 40%. The heat in the room helps flexibility of the muscles and joints. Sweating also helps the body to remove toxins, although it’s important to remain hydrated through the sessions which can last up to 90 minutes. During this 90 minutes practitioners work through 26 Hatha Yoga postures (asanas) and breathing exercises (pranayama) which help to develop mental capacity, brain activity, the circulation, heart and lungs.
