Yoga is for Every Body – the heat helps
We are strong on personal guidance, experts in hot yoga, and teach functional yoga, Pilates, and awareness practices. We love to keep updated in current science related to yoga and health. Using heat, a functional and trauma-informed approach, we offer a holistic blend of yoga classes to help you release, develop awareness, mobilize, stabilize, and strengthen body and mind.
Practicing yoga in a heated room helps the muscles stabilize, release and relax, promotes circulation, strengthens the immune system and alleviates feelings of depression and ‘stuckness’ in body and mind. The warmth helps focus, creating more space for insights to arise which can be processed and embodied in everyday life.
We heat the air in the room which is the safest and most natural method for an even, comfortable warmth. The effect is gentle on your lungs, supports healthy sweating and metabolic function, while calming and soothing the nervous system.

holistic approach
We are a medium-sized Hot yoga school specialised in guiding people of all ages, abilities and conditions. We help every body-mind find a practice that is functional and beneficial. As a trauma-informed school, we know yoga is deeper and broader than simply well-guided exercise and ‘yoga styles’.
Why we practice Yoga
Many people come to yoga simply to learn to relax and keep fit, while others come to recover and grow on a mental or physical level. As yoga teachers, we have also experienced challenges which brought us to yoga in the first place. Yoga has given us a way to create the lives we want to live. We’d love to share our practice with you.
