Helpful Hints for Setting Up Your Home Hot Yoga Practice
- Create Heat & Humidity – Use a space heater and humidifier to mimic studio conditions. Close doors and windows to retain warmth. Bathrooms can be great spaces to get warm and humid. While the heat is nice it is not necessary to be able to practice.
- Choose the Right Space – Find a quiet, clutter-free area with enough room to stretch fully in all directions.
- Use a Non-Slip Mat – A hot yoga mat or towel helps prevent slipping as you sweat.
- Wear Comfortable Clothing – Opt for moisture-wicking, breathable fabrics to stay comfortable. Layers can help keep the body warm.
- Hydrate Before & After – Drink plenty of water and electrolytes to stay balanced.
- Limit Distractions – Inform others in your home, and silence notifications to allow yourself the space to practice undisturbed.
- Practice Consistently – Schedule classes in advance and commit to a regular routine for the best results.
- Listen to Your Body – Modify the depth of poses as needed, and don’t push beyond your comfort level, especially without external heat.
- Enjoy the Process! – Embrace the practice, even if it feels different from the studio. Stay present and enjoy the journey.
During the pandemic, I began practicing online with Teri Almquist and Wellness Hot Yoga when my local studio closed. Even after my studio reopened, the commute became difficult, and I found the quality of instruction at Wellness Hot Yoga, led by Teri and her team, to be significantly better. This inspired me to create my own dedicated yoga space, complete with two 1500-watt infrared heaters and a full-length mirror. When I moved to Canada in 2024, my heaters came with me, and I easily recreated my sanctuary. For the past three years, I've enjoyed online classes with Wellness Hot Yoga three to four times a week. The instructors are excellent, demonstrating a deep understanding of the practice and the dialogue, and their personal acknowledgments during class create a strong sense of community, even from afar. Wellness Hot Yoga has been instrumental in maintaining my physical and mental well-being—I can't imagine where I'd be without it.

Helpful Hints for a Home Yin Yoga Practice
(Live Audio Streamed Classes)
- Create a Calm Space – Choose a quiet, comfortable area with minimal distractions. Dim the lights or use candles for a soothing atmosphere.
- Gather Props – Have a yoga mat, blankets, pillows, bolsters, and blocks ready to support your poses.
- Dress Comfortably – Wear soft, warm layers since Yin Yoga involves longer holds and less movement.
- Use Headphones (Optional) – Clear audio helps you stay focused on the instructor’s guidance.
- Listen to Your Body – Yin is about gentle release, not forcing a stretch. Find your edge and relax into it.
- Breathe Deeply – Slow, steady breathing helps you stay present and enhances relaxation.
- Stay Until Savasana – The final relaxation is an essential part of the practice—don’t rush out early!
- Be Part of the Class – Even though it’s audio-only, you’re practicing live with others, creating a shared energy.
