Yoga Without Boundaries
Vision
We envision a fun and creative yoga community that will inspire and empower all members on their paths to full potential and conscious living.
Mission
In the spirit of service and gratitude and through our love and passion of yoga the Hot N’ Cool Yoga Club supports members on their journey to self-realization and vibrant healthy living.
Core Values
-
Humility
We will remain respectful and open to all, knowing that in order to receive we must at first be willing to be empty. Our classes are an act of service, honouring all those who have come before us showing us the way to true bliss, health and happiness.
-
Connection
As we gather together, we become a force greater than when we are alone. By creating a loving and accepting environment, we remove the barriers that block true connection and understanding. We become connected to our yoga partners and our greater community.
-
Creativity
We always encourage creativity, experimentation and innovation. As we journey along the yogic path, we try new ways of existing, reorganizing and expanding our thoughts, encouraging all members to stretch their perceived limitations and explore new horizons.
-
Growth & Consciousness
Here at the Hot N’ Cool Yoga Club, we value personal development and growth on all levels through the practice of, but not limited to, the Eight Limbs of Yoga.
-
Joy
We feel it is important to stay joyful in all duties that are performed while at the club. We aim to share this genuine joy with our members, helping them to realize that they, too, should celebrate the joy in their practice, and in their lives.
-
Professionalism
To the Hot N’ Cool Yoga Club, integrity is valued. We treat all members with professionalism, courtesy and respect, holding our behaviours to a high standard of honesty, trust and fairness. All members can feel safe, secure and honoured during their practice.
Yoga Classes - Why Hot?
The Hot N' Cool Yoga Club is equipped with Far Infrared (FIR) lighting. FIR heats your body, without needing to bring the whole studio to a scorching heat. The heat of your body helps you to sweat, releasing toxins and burning calories. Far Infrared lighting stimulates your body to produce endorphins, leaving you happy and relaxed. Far Infrared lighting is safe for long periods of time. It is often used to keep premature infants warm, and is the warming aspect of the light that we receive from the Sun.
Yoga Classes - Why Cool?
The Hot N' Cool Yoga Club offers "Cool Classes," which are done at room temperature. There are a number of advantages to exercising in a cool environment. Exercising while cool offers less of a chance of over-stretching your muscles. As your muscles are less malleable when cool, you are more aware of their tension. As such, you are forced to pay more attention to the stress you put on your muscles, and can avoid stretching too far. Cool-body yoga teaches patience, as you must work harder and longer to achieve your workout. As well, such yoga has a greater focus on meditation and finding your natural limits, so that you can expand them. Our Summer Schedule offers more of these "Cool Classes," as natural temperatures climb.
