Hot Yoga Ancaster
What is Hot Yoga?
Ancaster Hot Yoga is a series of yoga poses done in a heated room. The Ancaster Yoga room is usually maintained at a temperature of 95-100 degrees for the hot yoga classes. As you can imagine, a vigorous hot yoga session at this temperature promotes profuse sweating which rids the body of toxins. It also makes the body very warm, and therefore more pliable.
Sweat it out.
What is Bikram Yoga?
Living yoga master Bikram Choudhury is the Hot Yoga innovator. Bikram’s method of Hot Yoga is a set series of 26 yoga poses, including two pranayama exercises, each of which is performed twice in a single 90 minute class. Choudhury, who was born in Calcutta, India in 1946, founded the Yoga College of India in Beverly Hills in 1974. He and his wife Rajashree were both yoga champions in India.
Hot Yoga Tips and Cautions
It is essential to have your own yoga mat and towel when doing Hot Yoga since you will be sweating so much. Students tend to wear very little clothing for the same reason.
We ask that you drink plenty of water before and after class so you don’t become dehydrated. We do not recommend that you eat during the two hours before class.
Hot Yoga is not advised for pregnant women, since it can raise the core body temperature.
