If you answered "YES" to any of the above, then Hot 26 Yoga is for you.

Hot26 Yoga is different from most typical forms of yoga. We don't try to bend you into a pretzel or chant. We are more interested in burning away excess baggage that weighs down your body and mind than burning incense.

Hot26 Yoga is for everyone - it is a real life, practical style of yoga accessible to everyone from any background. Some people assume that yoga is passive and definitely not a workout that creates physical transformation. But we are anything but sedate. Hot26 Yoga is a dynamic and energetic form of exercise that sculpts, hones and tones every muscle in your body. Regardless of what physical shape you are in or what limitations you believe that you have, you can definitely do this. A principle of the class is that one can learn to steadily make new demands of oneself to work harder, deeper, yet calmer.

Hot26 Yoga is purposefully challenging so that you can move from where you are right now to a new threshold of where you want to be. We're not interested in contortions. Our focus is on real life flexibility, strength, stability.

Hot Yoga works like magic. It works because it is simple and right in line with how your body is designed to move and operate. It trains your body for real life, bending, stretching, lifting, reaching, and twisting, so you can move through everyday with more ease, agility power and grace. In traditional fitness we tend to break down the components of strength, flexibility, stamina and cardio training into their own level of importance but in Hot Yoga we blend all the key ingredients together in one session. The health benefits are multi layered. We sculpt the external body and go beyond the external to balance all internal body systems. Hot Yoga works where so many other fitness and weight loss systems have failed because the results are more immediate. From your first session you tingle from head to toe, your blood is flowing, your mind is clearer, you are full of breath and you fell alive. Once you get a small taste of these results, you will want to keep going. Is Bikram Yoga a cardiovascular workout? ... and will I lose weight? No matter what your fitness level, you will find Bikram Yoga very challenging. Each posture combines flexibility, strength and balance to work your whole body from your bones to your skin. With persistence, patience, and dedication, you can lose inches, and develop muscle tone and strength that might never come from other forms of exercise. Most people experience weight loss because as you are losing fat and building muscle mass. What you will see is a general slimming all over: your clothes fit better, your posture is better, your skin will GLOW!

The heat combined with the Bikram sequence of the postures is what makes Hot Yoga so special. The room is intentionally heated to build and maintain a liquid quality to you movements by warm muscles, which allows you to protect your body from injury. Your body is like cold glass, if you warm it up you can form it, bend it and shape it with more ease. The "healing heat" of Bikram Yoga happens when breathing, movement and heat come together. Also, heat helps you sweat and sweat is one of the most important mechanisms of natural healing, since it enables the body to release toxins, metabolic debris and excess fluid. Your skin is the largest elimination organ in your body, so the more you sweat the more toxins you release. Hot26 Yoga is not just about working muscles. You are massaging deep tissues, glands, organs as well. As you work deep within your body, you may start to release "poisons" or "toxins" that have been stored there a long time. Sweating helps flush toxins from your body, giving you a wonderful glow from head to toe.

Didn't know you had a muscle there? Congratulations, you have utilized 100% of your body. You are on the way to regaining your birthright: using your body in the full range of motion that it was designed for. Muscle soreness is a build-up of lactic acid. What's the best way to get rid of the lactic acid? Stretching. It may seem impossible to imagine that coming back for more will help, but it is THE BEST way to relieve the soreness. If you wait too long to come back, then you will be starting all over again.
