Lean Body Barre - Hot Yoga
Description
Profiling Beauty Health and Wellness Center Features Varying types of Yoga, Barre and Pilates. All classes focus on full body and mind wellness Hot Yoga - This is the traditional Hot Yoga class. The room is heated 103-104 Degrees (39-40 Degrees C). This has been found to be the optimal temperature to assist in flexibility and detoxification. Any higher, and the body becomes distracted and the benefits of the pose are lost.
Hot Yoga consists of a series of slow moving poses. Each held for a period of time. Each pose involves flexibility, strength and balance. Even though your body is not moving, your muscles work isometricly for a metabolic boost.
Participants are encouraged to drink lots of water before the classes. Ideally, you should take your body weight and divide it in half. This will give you the amount of water, in ounces, that your should drink before the class. Optimally most water should be consumed before class, but bringing a water bottle is encouraged. Participants may also choose to bring a large towel, like a Yoga Towel. You will sweat like crazy and the towel will help keep you from slipping.
No prior yoga experience is necessary. People can walk in off the street and do Hot Yoga. But, advanced Yogi's also love Hot Yoga for the added benefits it brings to Yoga practice.
Lean Body Barre - Using a ballet barre for balance, we begin the class with slow movements to warm up the muscles. Lean Body Barre concentrates on the muscle groups that are not often used. Rather than using the larger muscles like the Quadriceps, Hamstrings and Biceps which are muscles that are used so often that they become very efficient at what they do; we concentrate on the inner and outer thigh muscles and shoulders and the back to boost our calorie burn and create a leaner body.
We then move to the floor to dance and stretch.
Disciplines of Ballet, Yoga, Dance (hip-hop and jazz) gather together in the fun-filled hour long class that is great for all ages.
