Practice as much as you want and as much as your body will allow! Most students use our New Student Special of $20 for 2 weeks Unlimited Yoga to get a feel of how often they are going to practice with us. During this time, we encourage our students to try out all of our instructors and classes because we all have different teaching styles and content. You’ll never come to the same class twice! After the 2 week special, students can then monitor and balance their practice and health progress. Practicing Hot Yoga 3 to 5 times a week is the most beneficial.

Yes! Hot Yoga will benefit your life in all areas and give you more energy! It will also help to prevent injuries associated with other physical activities you may participate in.

Many people think that they need to be flexible to do yoga, but that’s like saying you need to be strong to lift weights -just as you become stronger by lifting weights, you’ll start to gain flexibility by doing yoga.

This is especially true of hot yoga – because your muscles are warm, then your body will be more open and pliable and you’ll find that you can stretch more deeply than you can at room temperature.

Vinyasa is a flow (continuous movement) of Hot Yoga that moves with your breath.Our Vinyasa series incorporate yoga postures but with fluid movement and music. Be prepared for an upper body work out in our classes as we usually incorporate Sun Salutations and Chaturangas.ALWAYS remember all postures are optional at our studio. You are never expected to do anything that you are not comfortable with. BE YOURSELF and LISTEN TO YOUR BODY!

We encourage you to stay in the room if at all possible. You should use the bathroom before class. If you feel tired or overwhelmed, you should just lay down on your mat and take a few deep breaths in your Savasana. Leaving the room can be a bit disturbing to the rest of the class. Besides, we worry if you leave! The front door is locked during each class, so leaving the studio before class is finished is highly discouraged. If you do need to leave early, please just notify your instructor

Perfect. Hot Yoga is a great match for you and everyone has to start somewhere! Many new students that join our studio have no prior experience with any yoga at all. Classes at My Hot Yoga have been created for the beginner and the average person. You don’t really think everyone in America is naturally flexible do you?

The only way to get better at anything is do it over and over again.

Persons with sickness or injuries are welcome too. This is a great chance to get to know your body and reflect on what is out of balance. That “out of balance” part of you has a huge contributing factor as to why you became injured in the first place. We recommend starting your practice with our low-intensity Deep Stretch class.

We recommend that you don’t eat anything heavy for at least 2 hours before your class. However a light snack or smoothie before class usually does not bother students. Everybody is different and you will figure this out the more you join us!

Your body will experience a huge detoxification as well. Drinking plenty of fluid before and after class is necessary.

Aerial yoga is new to Southwest Missouri and My Hot Yoga is the only yoga studio in the area offering it! We suspend yoga slings from our ceiling and practice off the ground! Be prepared to swing, invert, stretch, and spend a lot of time upside down! Although practicing aerial yoga requires a lot of core and upper body strength, we encourage anyone to try it. We do turn the heat off for these classes, but please be mindful if you are prone to motion sickness, and please make sure not to eat a big meal before practicing with us!

We absolutely adore the heat! Most people come to My Hot Yoga because they love what the hot yoga does for their bodies and minds.If you are concerned about the heat, it is important to realize that it can take a few classes for your body to get acclimated to this dramatic change in temperature. Therefore, go easy on yourself while your body is adapting. We recommend starting your practice with our Deep Stretch (yin yoga) class – this is our low-intensity class that incorporates either seated or kneeling poses.Just remember to always LISTEN TO YOUR BODY – you are always welcome to sit out poses if needed. You can also control your breathing by lying down on your back with your palms up to help release heat.

Namaste means “The light in me honors the light in you,” or “I honor the place in you which the entire Universe dwells, I honor the place in you which is of love, light, peace, and truth. When you are in that place in you, and I am in that place in me, we are one.” It is a sign of respect from one person to another.

​You will need to bring a yoga mat and a large towel to cover your entire mat. If you don’t have these things we rent them at the studio for $2 each. Also, don’t forget to bring your water! Wear very lightweight exercise clothing (something you feel comfortable sweating and stretching in) and you may even want to bring a change of clothes for after class. You can count on getting sweaty.
