In The Original Hot Yoga your teacher is trained to safely instruct you through the sequence as part of a moving meditation (listening to these directions forces practitioners to stop thinking and be in the moment). No matter where you practice in the world, the instructions between the teacher and the student stays pretty much the same.Every true Original Hot Yoga studio has a soft carpet, which is more forgiving to joints than hardwood floors.

About Yoga Six - St. LouisThe instructors at YogaSix believe great posture comes from staying grounded—literally. Their teaching philosophy requires students to stabilize whatever parts of their bodies are touching the ground. Whether it's fingertips and feet in a standing half-forward bend or palms and shins in a downward-facing dog, focusing on those points gives yogis a strong foundation.After beginning with these basics, instructors introduce modifications that students can try as their skills expand. There are also a range of classes on offer to suit different needs, from intense hot yoga and boot camp to calming meditation and slow flow. This attention to detail is found in the studios themselves, too—they're built from eco-friendly materials and incorporate tons of natural light.Nearby PlacesBreath of Life Health & Wellness CenterRichmond Heights(2.96 mi)YogaSourceRichmond Heights(2.05 mi)D's Yoga HomeUniversity City(3.56 mi)South Town YogaNorthampton(2.66 mi)Yoga Rocks the ParkMaplewood(2.61 mi)Clayton YogaClayton(3.29 mi)NowFitnessWydown Skinker(1.5 mi)Three Rivers Aikido(2.36 mi)Bikram Yoga St. LouisRichmond Heights(1.78 mi)Richmond Heights Community CenterRichmond Heights(2.62 mi)Groupon Customer Reviews100% Verified ReviewsAll Groupon reviews are from people who have redeemed deals with this merchant.
