How hot is the studio during Hot Yoga classes?

Our studio maintains temperatures from 90°F to 105°F to create the ideal conditions for Hot Yoga. This controlled environment safely elevates body temperature, enhances circulation, and maximizes sweating to help release toxins and improve flexibility.

What are the benefits of practicing Hot Yoga?

Hot Yoga offers numerous benefits, including enhanced strength, flexibility, and balance. The heat helps increase muscle elasticity, allowing for deeper stretches and reduced injury risk. Regular practice can also aid in weight loss, stress reduction, and detoxification.

Do I need to book into a class?

Yes, advance booking is required for all classes to ensure limited class sizes and a personalized experience. You can book online through our website. We recommend scheduling at least 24 hours in advance to secure your spot.

Is Hot Yoga suitable for beginners?

Yes, Hot Yoga is suitable for beginners, but it's important to start slowly and be mindful of your body's reactions to heat and exertion. Beginners should focus on learning proper form and building heat tolerance. Always consult with your instructor before class to discuss any concerns or limitations.

How often should I practice yoga?

Hot Yoga is a dynamic yoga practice performed in a heated room, typically ranging from 90°F to 105°F. It's a challenging yet invigorating experience that benefits both body and mind. How often you practice is dependent on your goals, but most people practice 3-4 times per week.

Can I pause my membership if I am traveling or unable to attend for a period?

Absolutely! We understand that life can be unpredictable. Members can pause their membership for up to one month per year. Please contact our team at least two weeks in advance to arrange a membership pause.

What is your policy on class attendance and lateness?

To ensure a seamless experience for all participants, we kindly ask that you arrive at least 10 minutes before your class starts. Late entry is not permitted as it disrupts the class and compromises the experience for other yogis.

I don't have a yoga mat, do you offer mat hire?

Yes, we offer mats and towels for a small fee.

OUR STUDIO

Hot Yoga, Made Better

A girl doing meditation at Helios yoga center

Helios is a small boutique studio on purpose. When you walk in, someone will know your name — not just check you in. You'll find a room full of people who care about their own practice and yours, who'd rather welcome you than size you up.

Then there's everything we obsess over so you don't have to: infrared heat that warms your body instead of the air, humidity dialed in so you can actually breathe, padded floors that spare your knees, and lighting that shifts through the class to settle your mind.

After class, you'll be welcome into our friendly community of like-minded practitioners -- folks who care about their body and health, prioritize inner peace and kindness, and also have impeccable taste -- just like you.

We're at 260 Osborne Rd, Unit 6, in Loudonville Square. Free parking, right out front.

Never Shoulder to Shoulder

We built this studioso it never feels like a rush hour. Consistent temperature corner to corner, humidity that keeps the air soft, 5 millimeters of padding under your knees, and circadian lighting that changes so gradually you only notice how calm you feel. You'll never be shoulder to shoulder or fighting for a place on the floor. That's a deliberate choice, and it's the one our members love this most.
