Hot yoga is a series of poses, or asanas, carried out within a heated environment, typically 100 - 105°F, and a humidity of 40% - 50%. The heat and humidity allows increased flexibility in the body, helping you gradually attain your personal best with the poses, whilst simultaneously expelling harmful toxins from your body. It will also assist you with a range of benefits, from regulating body weight and toxicity levels to building core muscles, improving balance, increasing energy, assisting sleep, and decreasing stress.
The combination of the poses and the warm temperature helps stimulate and restore health to your joints, organs, muscles, and immune system whilst detoxifying your body. With our variety of of yoga classes on offer corresponding with all age and skill levels, Fire Shaper has evolved and redefined both the heated yoga and the traditional yoga experience to the modern lifestyle.
Our improved range of classes provides the benefits of the Hot Yoga core-strength and body-shaping practices, with traditional yoga programs, to bring you an entirely new perspective to our philosophy.
