At Yoga on the Eastside we teach Bikram Hot Yoga in a safe and inclusive way to ensure your success. We believe in a world with abundant physical, emotional, and spiritual well being. We are so thrilled you've taken the first step toward joining us. This yoga practice gives you greater physical vitality, mental clarity, and emotional stability so YOU can live a happier and healthier life!
-
Drink water before you're in class - Half of your body weight in ounces in the day leading up to your first class is a good number to work with.
Bring a mat, towel, and bottle of water. If you don't have these, we have mats and towels for rental and water for purchase.
Arrive 10-15 minutes before class begins to get settled, meet the teacher, and begin class on time.
Wear light and breathable clothing - It will be hot and you want to be comfortable - shorts and a sports bra and/or tank top for women and shorts and a tank top for men.
-
Listen - The teacher will tell you what to do, how to do it, and the result of doing it. If you get lost, don't worry! We complete just about every posture in the class twice, so you always have a second go at it.
Take a break if you feel you need to - Sit down or lie down and join the class again when you feel ready.
"Just breathe, everything else is optional" - Diane Ducharme Gardener
-
Rest quietly on your mat - We call the time when you're laying on your mat after class Savasana or Dead Body Pose. It is suggested to be quiet and comfortable on your mat for 2-3 minutes after class. Maybe you'll even drift off into a nap!
Hydrate with more than just water - When you sweat, you lose electrolytes like sodium, potassium, and magnesium. Adding some sea salt and lemon to your water is a tasty way to balance your electrolytes and stay hydrated. We also like coconut water for after class. If you have a headache or feel some cramping during or after class, electrolytes will help.
Come back in 24-48 hours - You'll acclimate to the heat more quickly, learn the Bikram Yoga series, and realize the amazing benefits quickly!
