Hot Yoga – Why Heat & Humidity?

Heat and humidity allows the body to warm up properly. This in turn reduces the risk of injury and allows you to work more deeply.

If you take into consideration that Hot Yoga originated in India, where they have a much hotter and humid climate, it makes sense that we should prepare our bodies with heat and humidity before stretching.

By combining Heat and Humidity in Hot Yoga studios the following benefits can be gained;
