Settle into your final Savasana with a cool lavender towel, cool down, hydrate, and take your time. Be proud of the work you showed up for today — then come back. The more you return, the more your practice grows.
First time Q&A
What class do you recommend for beginners? What should I start with?
Every class at The Vibe is built for beginners. Whether you’re curious about Bikram Yoga, ready to try Inferno Hot Pilates, or want to try both, you can start anywhere. Check out our class breakdowns and choose what speaks to you — we’ll make sure you feel supported from the moment you walk in.
Do I need to be flexible to practice Yoga and Pilates?
Nope! You don’t need to be flexible to begin — that’s literally what yoga and Pilates are for. Think of it like taking tennis lessons before you know how to play.
Show up as you are, and you’ll gain flexibility, strength, coordination, cardiovascular benefits, and a serious boost in confidence.
Why Are You Supposed to Refrain From Eating 2–3 Hours Before Class?
Because yoga and Pilates include twisting, folding, and core engagement, a full stomach can feel uncomfortable.
If you have a fast-moving metabolism or worry about getting hungry, try a light snack — like yogurt, a handful of nuts, or a bit of juice — about 30 to 60 minutes before class to keep your energy steady without weighing you down.
Why the heat?
The heat is a powerful tool in both Bikram Yoga and Inferno Hot Pilates. Warm muscles move more safely and more deeply, which helps even the stiffest beginners build flexibility and reduce chronic discomfort. The heated environment also improves circulation, supports detoxification, boosts cardiovascular performance, and encourages weight loss.
In Bikram Yoga, the heat helps the body open, align, and heal through therapeutic postures. In Inferno Hot Pilates, it amplifies calorie burn, engages the core more efficiently, and helps build bone density and lean muscle — all while staying low-impact.
Students often notice reduced stress, better sleep, improved skin, and a greater sense of well-being. The heat isn’t just part of the class — it’s part of the transformation.
I Haven't Exercised In A Long Time And Have Put On Some Extra Weight. Can I Practice Yoga & Pilates?
Yes — absolutely. You can practice Bikram Yoga and Inferno Hot Pilates at any weight, size, or fitness level. Our experienced teachers at The Vibe will offer modifications and support to help you move safely and confidently.
Bikram Yoga’s therapeutic postures and mindful breathing help reduce stress, improve circulation, and reset your nervous system — and stress is one of the biggest contributors to weight gain. Inferno Hot Pilates adds low-impact strength training and cardio, helping you build muscle, boost your metabolism, and feel stronger from the inside out.
Together, these two practices create a powerful foundation for improving your health, increasing strength and mobility, and supporting weight loss when paired with a balanced lifestyle.
How often should I practice?
Most students see the best results practicing 3–5 times a week. Bikram Yoga and Inferno Hot Pilates work even better when done consistently. Give yourself a few classes to adjust to the heat, and try to come often in your first 30 days — that’s when the breakthroughs (and the good vibes) really start.
I don’t know if doing yoga in the heat will work for me.
We totally get it — trying Bikram Yoga or Inferno Hot Pilates in the heat can feel intimidating at first. But the only way to know if it’s right for you is to try it and see how your body responds. Most students are surprised by how incredible they feel afterward.
Start with your First Class Free, and if you love it, dive into our Two-Week Unlimited Intro Offer to really experience how your body adapts and how good this practice can feel.
Why should I arrive early to class?
Coming early allows you to unwind, set up your space, and ease into the heat before class begins. It helps you be more present and grounded once class starts.
It also keeps the room running smoothly and shows respect for your teacher and everyone who arrived on time. If life happens and you’re delayed, simply let us know — communication makes all the difference.
Wow, its hot! Can I leave the room?
The heat is part of the practice, and we encourage you to stay in the room so your body can adapt. If you need to rest, sit or lie quietly on your mat — that’s absolutely part of the process.
You can rejoin anytime you feel ready. Should you need to leave for an urgent reason, please step out quietly so the class flow isn’t disrupted.
What amenities are available at The Vibe?
We offer locker rooms with showers and cubbies to store your belongings. We have mat and towel rentals for the hot room, as well as, shower towel rentals if you choose. We have mats, towels, & electrolytes, for purchase at our front desk. Please download our app or walk in to book your class.
What should I expect at my first class?
Expect a warm welcome, a supportive instructor, and a room full of good vibes (and heat!).
Each class runs 60 to 90 minutes and is led by a certified teacher who will guide you every step of the way. You’ll sweat, stretch, and be encouraged throughout. The heated room helps boost flexibility and strength quickly—just breathe and do your best!
How should I prepare before coming in?
Hydrate, arrive early, and bring the basics.
Drink a liter of water about two hours before class, and try to come on an empty stomach. For your first class, show up 15 minutes early and bring water, a mat, and a large towel. (Forgot something? No worries—we rent and sell gear too!)
What should I wear?
As little as you’re comfortable with—really.
You’re going to sweat a lot in the heated room, so lightweight, breathable clothes are best. Think: shorts, a tank top, or even just a sports bra and fitted bottoms. No judgment here—just sweat and self-care.
Any tips for after my first class?
Yes—come back within 24 hours!
Your second class is when the magic really starts. Returning the next day helps your body adjust, recover faster, and build momentum. Also: hydrate, rest, and don’t forget to pat yourself on the back. You did something amazing.
Studio Etiquette at The Vibe
These guidelines help everyone have the best experience in the hot room — whether you’re practicing Bikram Yoga or feeling the Vibes in Inferno Hot Pilates.
Arrive Early
The doors lock right at class time — no late entries. Arriving early gives you time to unwind from whatever happened before you got here, settle on your mat, and acclimate to the heat. You should be on your mat before the teacher arrives, and the teacher should always leave before you do.
We understand that life happens and some things are out of your control. If you’re running late due to an unavoidable situation, please communicate with us openly and honestly. Clear communication helps us support you and maintain a smooth experience for the whole room.
Stay in the Room
The heat is part of the practice, and staying in the room helps your body adjust. If you need a break, sit or lie down — resting is always allowed and respected. If you must leave due to an emergency, please exit quietly.
Silence in Yoga, Energy in Pilates
Yoga is a no-talking space. Stillness and silence help everyone stay focused and present.
Pilates has a more upbeat vibe, and a well-timed burst of encouragement is welcome, but conversations should still wait until after class.
No Hand Towels – In Yoga
We do not use hand towels during Bikram Yoga. Letting the sweat roll is part of learning to stay focused and not get distracted by every sensation. It’s the classic way, and we’re keeping it.
Practice Stillness Between Postures
Between movements, take a moment to be calm, steady, and present. This helps reset your breath and your mind for what’s next.
No Shoes, Gum, Phones, or Personal Belongings in the Hot Room
The hot room stays clean and distraction-free. No shoes, gum, cell phones, watches, earbuds, or personal items. All you need is your mat, towel, and water.
We understand that wearable fitness devices are part of modern life, but they must remain silent, vibration-free, and non-distracting to the class — and ideally, to you as well.
Follow the Teacher and Move Together
Listen closely to your teacher’s cues and move with the group. Flowing together helps maintain rhythm, focus, and safety.
Be Mindful With Your Mat Placement
Make sure you can see yourself in the mirror and help create five clean rows in the yoga room. Align your mat about a third of the way over the floor lines — we use these lines for alignment during Bikram Yoga, and they help ensure everyone has space when classes are full.
Please do not move another student’s mat; everyone chooses their spot with intention. And do your best not to block the mirror view of someone who was already settled in. We’re a community, and a little spatial awareness goes a long way.
No Speakerphone or Recording in Bathrooms or Locker Rooms
Please avoid FaceTime, speaker conversations, videos, and personal music in the bathroom or locker room. Everyone appreciates a quiet, private space.
