What classes you will find here
Most of the studio's classes are yoga, and more than half are hot yoga, so the heat is the main thing that sets this space apart. The styles you will see most are Vinyasa, which links breath and movement from one pose to the next, and Bikram, which follows a set sequence of 26 postures and two breathing exercises. Classes are mostly marked all levels, and a fifth are labeled first class ever.
Alongside the yoga there is a group of Inferno Hot Pilates classes. These are full-body sessions built on Pilates principles, with a sweat-driven, low-impact and high-intensity pace. They come in several focus versions, including arms, legs and glutes, and abs. There are also a few Bikram Beats classes that add music to the Bikram sequence, along with Hatha, yin and restorative classes for a slower session.
How the week runs and who leads
Classes are spread across the day. A third start in the morning and a third in the evening, with midday and weekend classes each making up about a fifth. The busiest start times are noon, 5pm, 7pm and 10:30am, and the busiest days are Sunday, Friday and Thursday. Most classes run about an hour.
The studio has a couple of dozen facilitators, and Amie Sowe, Allegra Chabay, Nick Harris, Gabriela Alvarado and Mikhayla Pitts are among those who lead the most classes. Classes are not sold as passes here, so you book the session you want. For the current timetable, prices and the events calendar, the studio's website at forgehotyoga.com is the place to check.
