About Our Practice
Yoga At SoCal is more than a workout to make you look good, it will also make you feel good. Everyone is welcome regardless of your age, culture, and physical condition. We offer a variety of classes, both heated and non-heated including Barre/Pilates class. Whether you’re an avid fitness guru or not, or just recovering from an injury, adding heated or non-heated Yoga to your routine will enhance and improve your overall performance. All members work at their own level and pace. Our aim is to help you strengthen and improve your body’s natural range of motion and restore flow throughout all your bodily systems. Our instructors are educated to layer their class, making it accessible for new members, while challenging even those with years of experience.
Hot Vinyasa Flow (HVF)
This Power/Vinyasa is a powerful, energetic practice where students fluidly move from one pose to the next. It is a vigorous and revitalizing challenge in intensity and pace. This class uses breath as the primary link between alternating poses and mind-body connection. We call this breath Ujjayi. Build strength, increase endurance, release tension and create more flexibility in the entire body. Class duration 60 min. (approx. 98 degrees with approx. 50%-60% humidity).
Hot Fusion (HF)
This class is a great starting point for any beginning yogi. This class is a sequence of postures that move more deeply, slowly and mindfully, which allows for the same sequence every time (also known as Bikram Yoga). This allows you time to find proper alignment and sink deeper into each asana. You will gain flexibility, balance, strength and mental focus. You will also get a little bit of practice flowing as you layer the postures together in breath to movement. There are little to no vinyasas in this class, so your wrists get a break from Chaturangas. Class duration 60 min. (approx. 98-101 degrees with approx. 50%-60% humidity).
Hot Yoga Sculpt (HYS)
Boost metabolism and build lean muscle mass as you move to upbeat music. This class uses vinyasa movements and resistance exercises for increased muscle endurance. You’ll combine free weights with yoga sequencing and cardio while mixing in strength-training moves like squats, lunges, and bicep curls. You will build strength, stamina, and flexibility while moving from one pose to the next! Class duration 60 min. (approx. 92-96 degrees with no added humidity).
Barre Full Body Workout (Tone + Sculpt) - slightly heated
This class takes place in our Infrared Heated Studio. This class is an effective Full Body Barre Workout focused on low-impact, high-intensity movements that lift tone & sculpt muscles and improve strength, core, agility, flexibility for all fitness levels. The signature method uses your own body weight, the ballet barre and a few props to create a transformative workout that results in long, lean sculpted muscles and improve your cardiovascular system. No dance experience required. Can burn between 300-600 calories. Room is slightly heated with no added humidity.
Yin Yoga (YY)
It is a slow-paced style of yoga with postures or asanas that are held for comparatively longer time using props to move into the connective tissue or fascia versus stretching the muscles in traditional yoga. Yin yoga is joint rehabilitation. Class duration 1 hr. 15 min. (room temperature with no added humidity).
Restorative Yoga (RY)
Therapuetic style of yoga. Props such as straps, blocks, blankets are used to promote opening of the body and deep relaxation. Props, rather than your muscles, are used to support your body. This enables deep relaxation as you hold poses for longer periods of time with the help of props to completely support you. Class duration 60 min. (lightly heated with no added humidity).
