Infrared is the ultimate compliment to a strong flowing Yoga or Breath and Meditation class. We recommend you drink plenty of water before and after to replenish and hydrate your body.
CAN I TAKE A CLASS IF I’M PREGNANT?
Exercising while pregnant is a determination for you and your doctor. If you are cleared to exercise, you can do most of our classes with the exception of our “Hot” classes. Infrared raises your core body temperature slightly, which is great for general detox purposes but strongly not advised for expecting mothers. Please make sure to tell your instructor if you are expecting and what your limitations are (ie. at a certain month, you can not lay on your back). They will be able to suggest a modification or alternative exercises.
