Most classes at Burning Wheel Yoga & Fitness are held in a studio heated with dry heat rather than steam or added humidity.

Because temperatures vary and some classes may not be heated, check the individual class description to learn whether the class is heated and the expected temperature.

Class temperatures vary based on the format, ranging from unheated to approximately 95°F. Check the individual class description for the expected temperature before attending.

Dry heat raises the room temperature without adding artificial humidity or steam, while humid heat combines elevated temperatures with added moisture in the air.

At Burning Wheel Yoga & Fitness, heated sessions use dry heat.

The elevated temperature increases circulation and mobility, helping muscles and connective tissue move more freely under load. It also raises cardiovascular demand, encouraging steady breathing, controlled pacing, and sustained focus. Rather than creating intensity for its own sake, dry heat serves as a training tool for developing endurance, self-regulation, and composure during physical effort.

There are hooks for coats and bags in the lobby and cubbies in the back of the studio for valuables.

Burning Wheel Yoga & Fitness is not responsible for items left at the studio. 

 Full-spectrum lighting reproduces a broad range of visible wavelengths to create illumination that more closely resembles natural daylight.

At Burning Wheel Yoga & Fitness, it helps the studio feel clear, balanced, warm, and inviting while supporting focus during practice.

Every woman and every pregnancy is different, and you should consult your physician before beginning yoga while pregnant.

Some women have been able to practice heated yoga right up until their due date with no complications, but it is important to check with your doctor first.

Yoga can work for any body type. We will work with you to tailor the practice to meet your needs.

Be sure to have a conversation with the instructor before beginning classes so that they are best able to assist you with modifications.

Increased flexibility and range of motion are one of the many benefits of yoga practice, but yoga is not all about how flexible your body is. You can start practicing yoga even if you are inflexible. If you continue to practice regularly, you will become more flexible.
