This class includes 26 set postures and 2 breathing exercises, practiced in a room heated to 105 degrees. Popularized by Bikram, this immensely effective and beloved style is proven to improve sleep, reduce anxiety, lessen pain, and promote weight loss & strength gain. The pace of this class is slow, methodical, and meditative, but challenging. It will satisfy beginners and advanced yogis alike! Unlike other Hot 26 classes, ours are 60 minutes and include great music!

Our signature (and outstandingly sweaty) fitness class uses music & rhythm, primal movement, and dance elements to awaken the primordial energy, inspire somatic release, and re-pattern the body for health.

Designed to awaken all of the archetypes within you (wild woman, mystic, lover, queen!)

Sneaky cardio to supercharge your fitness

The dance club vibe you didn’t know you were missing from your life

Wicked f*#&ckin fun

Our yoga classes are a true “ujjayi” breath practice: ONE breath per ONE movement. Inhale, exhale - this allows practitioners to get into a moving meditation state, where they shut off the pre-frontal cortex of the brain (the over thinker!) and turn “on” deeper levels of intuition and somatic experience. While fast-paced, the flows are created entirely from foundational postures (no fancy arm balances here). This is back-to-basics, truly transformational yoga. This class is 90 degrees and we practice to beat-driven music without lyrics.

Yin yoga is a slow-paced series of postures that are held for several minutes, allowing students to move beyond the muscular system and into deep layers of fascia and connective tissue to restructure the body in a way that faster-paced yoga styles don't allow for. While still challenging in its own right, it is a great class for beginners and the perfect YIN to the YANG of our other styles. The warm room of 75 degrees helps you melt away tension. Accompanied by various styles of soundscapes.

Step Up(rise!) is not your mama's step class! It is a hybrid of step aerobics and dance styles such as Hip-Hop, Contemporary, and Afrobeat, done to various music genres including Dancehall, Reggaetone, Rap, and R&B. The sweat really sneaks up on you in this one! A cardio-dance class that has the added benefit of toning legs & glutes. You will be smiling the whole time!

Another new signature style that we are excited to share with you, UPLIFT has all of your favorite elements of our UPRISE classes, but with these key distinctions:

- less intensive cardio and more focus on strengthening & muscle burnout

- less primal movement (aka, less squatting and less intensity for your hips and knees!), replaced by functional weight training that utilizes 1-3 pound weights and resistance bands in different functional movements, like lunges

- 45 minute workout time to fit your schedule!

This class is a great alternative to our traditional UPRISE class for anyone: over 50, with knee or hip issues, looking to build more muscle or bone density, or looking for just a bit of a slower pace. It's still completely rhythm-driven, so it will NEVER feel like working out. We guarantee it!

WHY practice hot yoga?

SWEATING is a critical part of any detoxification process, which is crucial for health. Most group fitness classes don’t allow for a deep sweat, and it’s especially important if you live in a place like Maine, where it’s chilly for most of the year! Sweating regularly improves sleep, immunity, metabolism, and even life span, studies show! Our classes are practiced with forced hot air + humidification, so they are more tolerable and you don’t have the unwanted effects of infrared heat.
