The practice here
The studio describes its purpose as a sanctuary for self-care, a place to pause, connect and belong. Its classes are built around hot yoga, with sequences that push the heart rate up, and it describes its own mix of hot yoga, hot pilates, bootcamp and fusion workouts.
The lineup also includes yin and restorative classes, so the week can move from a sweaty session to a slower one. Most of the practice is physical and strong, with a few calmer classes for days that ask for less.
How the week runs
Most classes run in the morning, and the earliest begin at 7:30am. The later classes start in the afternoon and early evening, with the last start at 5:30pm. Weekends hold nearly all of the schedule, with Sunday the day when the most classes run.
Most classes last about an hour, and a few run longer at 90 minutes. The facilitators teach the classes, and there is a small group of them who lead most of the schedule.
