Banyan Tree School Of Yoga
Hot Yoga
This is our signature class. If you love an all-over deep stretch and a great sweat, then you will love Hot Yoga. Classes are taught in a heat chamber where overhead infrared heating panels are used to create intense sauna like conditions of up to 105 degrees. The heat should dramatically improve your flexibility allowing you to move deeper into the postures. It is also delivers a thorough cardiovascular workout and is great for detoxing. As your body fights to stay cool and your mental focus intensifies, your pulse rate rises and heavy sweating is induced. In one 60 minute class you can burn around 600 calories. With a broad range of classes available ranging from beginner to advanced level, our friendly experienced instructors guide you through each pose adjusting you alignment and posture when necessary to avoid injury and to ensure you get the most out of every class.
Hot Yoga Beginner Classes
If you are new to yoga or perhaps find the thought of the heat a little intimidating then this is the class for you. In this class we gently introduce you to the heat and break down the posture sequences into a more basic form so that you can perfect your holds and gain confidence before progressing to regular classes. All levels are welcome
Yin Yoga
Yin Yoga is a style of yoga that focuses on the passive holding of postures for extended time intervals (3 to 5 minutes). These longer holds deliver a deeper workout for your connective tissues such as ligaments, bones and joints by working improving your strength and reducing your risk of injury. Longer holds also give the body and mind time to slow down and drop into stillness, cultivating an almost meditative practice. This class is a wonderful compliment to our hot classes and faster paced yoga styles. All levels are welcome.
