Heat protects muscles as they move through their full range of motion. When practicing in the heat, endorphins are released helping to reverse the negative effects of stress. In fact, studies have shown that yoga normalizes cortisol levels. Heat increases the heart rate, strengthening the cardiovascular system. Higher temperatures soften collagen around the joints for more freedom of movement and improve the function of the nervous system. The process of sweating exfoliates and rejuvenates the skin, the largest organ of your body.

Benefits of the Heat

Therapeutic Sequencing

The key element to composing every one of our classes is staying in line with a therapeutic structure. We safely open up the myofascial lines of the body by moving from simple to more complex movements. By evenly strengthening and lengthening each one of these lines we can work to restore balance in the body.

 

“Meditation practice isn’t about trying to throw ourselves away and become something better. It’s about befriending who we are already.”
