Summer Schedule 2019

/in /by

We are pleased to announce that we have a good summer schedule, with slight adjusted class times to make room for more time out at the beach or on the terraces. But still enough classes per week to give you the possibility to keep up with your practice. Remember to see benefits it is good to commit to 2 – 3 times per week.

Here are some good reasons to keep up with your practice during the summer months:

  1. Gain more flexibility
    During the summer months, due to the warmer temperatures and higher humidity outside, you are more warmed up by the time you step on to your yoga mat to start class. Maybe July or August is your best moment for achieving your standing splits? Or just touching your toes for the first time?
  2. No more feeling sluggish
    Practicing in the hot room acclimatises your body to the warmer temperature and therefor doesn’t feel as humid or overwhelming with hot summer weather. This enables you to perform at a higher level when outside and you sleep better during those warm nights.
  3. Healthy glowing skin
    No sunscreen needed. You can break a sweat without being out under the hot sun and worrying about sun damage to your skin. Regular sweating keeps your skin looking young, healthy and glowing.
  4. Maintain your practice
    There is nothing better than walking into the hot room on those chilly winter days, which we had more than enough of this year. But after months of a dedicated winter practice that gave you energy, kept you healthy and gave you a sense of rhythm, why would you throw it out the window and take a break? There will be more sunny days in the
  5. Better hydration habits
    Practicing Bikram Yoga on a regular basis will encourage you to drink more water through out the day to stay hydrated. We all know how much better class goes when we are properly hydrated, drinking plenty of water through out the day and before and after class! This tends to spill over into your life outside of yoga too! It’s proven that a daily healthy water intake helps you to lose weight, make your skin glow, regulate body temperature, cure headaches and much more!

That burning question: Is the yoga room HOTTER when it is HOT outside?

  • Many people have the idea that the yoga room will be hotter on hot sunny days. However, it is not, the heating systems have the same goals to reach whether it is cold outside or hot outside. The difference that you DO feel is the relative humidity which can make the temperature feel hotter.
  • However, the humid sticky classes are especially good for our muscles, ligaments and joints. It is just more of a challenge to our focus, determination and concentration. Make sure your breathing stays calm, relaxed and always through your nose (inhale and exhale) from the very start of class (of course with the exception of the breathing exercises).
