Our H26 (also called Bikram) classes is one of our 7 hot yoga classes. It is a 90-minute hot yoga practice where students perform a set sequence of 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises in a room heated to 105 degrees Fahrenheit with 40% humidity, designed to deeply stretch and strengthen the body by utilizing the heat to enhance flexibility and detoxification; the consistent sequence, practiced in a mirrored room, is intended to be accessible to all levels of yogis, with a focus on alignment and mindful breathing throughout the practice.
