WHY THE HEAT?

Practicing yoga in a heated room supports deep stretching but also assists in the detoxification of the body through sweating and lymphatic movement. The heat allows increased blood flow to the muscles improving circulation and boosting the feel good benefits of the yoga postures.  Of course, the heat also allows for a deeper stretch so you can improve your flexibility quicker. Improved flexibility is important because it improves posture and the ability to move as well as reducing the risk of injury and improving muscular weakness.

Hot Yoga creates strong and flexible bodies and minds.

The Community

We believe all students are equal and welcome everyone - we are proud of our diverse community of students from all backgrounds, ethnicities and genders and support the LGBTQ community.
At THYC everyone is a yogi.

CLASSES

  • 26+2 but not how you know it!

    Heated to 33-35 degrees

  • Rest & Restore will help you anchor yourself, the perfect 75-minute reset on your Sunday evening. A time to embrace and slow down. This restorative practice will give you an opportunity to reset, check in and replenish for the week ahead.

    Focusing on Pranayama (breathing exercises), Dharana (concentration) & Dhyana (meditation) whilst exploring the Yamas & Niyamas and more.. Each week we will dive into Yoga Philosophy and discover how it fits perfectly into our daily life.

    Expect a very slow moving practice, a warm studio gently heated to around 30 degrees, essential oils and candles (when it starts to get darker outside).

  • Vinyasa is a flow based class where the postures flow into one another in connection with the breath.

    This class usually includes seated meditation, sun salutations, dynamic movement, asana (posture) practice and introductions to yoga philosophy.

    Heated to 33-35 degrees.

  • Indulge in the slow, calm & mindful practice of yin yoga. Yin yoga works deeply into our body with passive, longer-held poses designed to release deep-held tension from the body & mind. Reduces stress and anxiety, improves sleep, increases circulation and improves joint mobility. Gently heated to around 30 degrees.

  • A dreamy yin/yang experience of Hot Yoga.

    The class begins with 60 mins of Original Hot Yoga practiced to music, followed by 30 mins wind down with deep Yin Stretches and a short Yoga Nidra relaxation at the end.

    Designed to balance the yin and yang within and ease you into your weekend!

    Experience practicing the Original Hot Yoga sequence (26+2) to music. Less dialogue, more connection to breath and each other.

    As we move together through the postures in this way it gives us a chance to experience 26+2 in a completely different way.

    Practicing the postures we know and love in a different experience allows us to break our habitual thinking, reframe our thinking and enjoy being in more of a flow state.

    The music adds a different dynamic and atmosphere to the class.

    Heated to 40 degrees (for the first 60min) and goes down to around 35 degrees (for the last 30min).

  • Hot Pilates is a low impact, full-body strengthening class that improves posture and core strength.

    Done in the heat you will really feel the burn!! This is a full body workout!

    Think small movements, high repetitions and a real strengthening burn, so you stand taller, move better and feel firmer, in whatever ‘everyday’ life looks like for you.

    Consider Pilates a skill... the fine tuning you didn’t know you needed for your everyday life - the outcome being a balanced, supple body, less injuries, improved core strength and better alignment with for life.

    Welcome a more balanced, stronger, supple, and aligned body and stave off injuries! See you on the mat.

  • A super special class incorporating elements of yoga philosophy, meditation, pranayama, vinyasa, embodied flow, yin and deep rest - a full rounded practice.

    Sunday Service has become a students favourite, it intertwines teachings from different lineages and is a chance to explore more embodied movement, somatics, free flow and develop your own practice. Each class weaves in a different theme or a teaching and therefore is very different every time.

    Heated to around 33-35 degrees.

“Really authentic session with such a lovely instructor. The converted chapel adds to the charm of the session and all the fellow students are so lovely and welcoming!! Definitely will be back!”
