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.

We're Building a Community of Faithful Yogis with Exquisite Taste and High Standards

NEW STUDENT INTRODUCTORY OFFER -- $59 FOR YOUR 1st MONTH ($70 SAVINGS)

The practice of yoga isn’t about perfection, it never was. But it is about the pursuit of better.

We stretch ourselves as far as we can, hold poses as long as we can, breathe as regularly and calmly as we can—not for perfection, but for the pursuit of it.

Because it is only in the pursuit of better, and in paying attention to every little detail, that we are truly present to our power in any given moment.

And that’s the intention behind Helios.

We believe that life is way too short to compromise on the very details that make a difference in whether hot yoga brings you peace and joy.

Which is why here, at Helios, you’ll find nothing less than an exquisitely equipped studio and an unparalleled experience.

You’ll find a welcoming community of practitioners who also choose the best for their body, mind, and well-being.

Maybe you’ll even find the version of you that’s finally practicing yoga to a level you never knew you could before—because you just needed an optimal environment to make that possible.

You just needed refined hot yoga, without the ick.

So you can breathe deeper (without gagging, lol).

Because honestly, you’re too good to settle for anything less.‍‍

But don't take our word for it. Listen to our clients.
