General Information about Hot Yoga
Hot Yoga offers classes in Vinyasa Yoga. Vinyasa or flow yoga is one of the emerging forms of yoga in the West arising from Krishnamacharya's lineage of Ashtanga, Iyengar and Viniyoga. Vinyasa yoga is sequenced to bring balance between ease (sukha) and effort (sthira) while synchronizing the movement with the breath. The sequences of the yoga postures are both physically challenging and spiritually rejuvenating. Each posture, also referred to as an asana, is designed to prepare the body for the one that follows. Hot Yoga classes last for 60-80 minutes in a room heated to approximately 97.8 degrees, which is our body temperature. Practicing yoga in a hot environment opens both the chakras and the muscular/skeletal system, it stimulates the glandular system, and helps eliminate toxins to rebuild the body from old injuries. With continued Hot Yoga practice, what once seemed purely physical slowly transforms the practitioner towards a metaphysical state of being. In Hot Yoga, our goal is to empower each student to discover the teacher within. We hope that the classes you take at our studio will help you transform your thoughts, actions and body from the inside out.

Classes will be held by Elizabeth Hofman, R.Y.T. 200
Education wise - Elizabeth "Liz" has a BA in Biology from Occidental College (1992) and a Master's in Environmental Science from TAMU-CC (2001). She is a secondary science teacher, but has put her teaching career on hold to be home with her two boys. Elizabeths Story: I started yoga in 2001 when I was 4 months pregnant with my first child and dragged by a dear friend to a power yoga class in Okinawa, Japan. I loved it from the get go as it was the only thing that felt good while pregnant. I kept up my practice until the day before I went into labor. I quickly returned to my practice and developed a passion for Power Yoga. I received my NESTA certification in 2003 and started teaching in Okinawa for MCCS (Marine Corps Community Services)while pregnant with #2. We moved in June of 2005 to Chesapeake, Virginia where I taught at a local gym (Wellness One) from 2005-2008. I received my 200 Hr RYT in multi-style in April 2007 from Chesapeake Hot Yoga. I became addicted to Hot Yoga after my 2nd class and taught Hot Yoga from March 2007 - June 2008
