Hot Vinyasa Flow.
The signature class — a breath-led sequence that builds heat slowly, stays in standing for a long time, and earns its floor work.
What the class feels like.
Vinyasa means "to place in a special way", and that's how this class is shaped. We open with three to five minutes of seated breath, move into a long sun-salutation warm-up, and only then step into standing flows. The peak — usually a balance pose or a soft backbend — sits at minute thirty, not minute fifty-nine. The last quarter is a slow descent into hip openers, twists, and rest.
Our 38°C target is set by radiant infrared, which reads softer than the same number on a forced-air thermostat. You'll sweat. You'll also breathe.
- Three to five minutes of grounding breath at the start
- Long standing sequence — usually 22–28 minutes
- One peak pose, taught in three escalating versions
- Five minutes of guided savasana before tea
Who this class is for.
This is the most-booked class at Kelvio, and the one we recommend after a Foundation 26 month. If you've practised vinyasa elsewhere — even unheated — you'll find the shape familiar. If you're brand new to heated classes, sit closer to the door for your first three sessions: the air moves more freely there.
We do not recommend this class as a complete beginner's first experience. Start with Foundation 26 instead. It exists for exactly that.
Don't take this class if
- You've never practised yoga before — try Foundation 26 first
- You're recovering from a hip or shoulder injury within the last 6 weeks
- You're managing high blood pressure not yet stable on medication
Common asks before booking.
Can I drop in halfway if I'm running late?
For everyone's safety in a heated room, the door closes five minutes after class start. We'll happily move your booking to the next available class.
How much should I drink beforehand?
Start hydrating two hours before class — a tall glass of water with a pinch of salt is a good ritual. Avoid eating a full meal in the 90 minutes before class.
What if I need to lie down mid-class?
Always allowed. Child's pose is the universal "I'm taking a moment" signal — your teacher will know exactly what's happening and won't interrupt.
Step onto the mat.
Trial pass holders, drop-in visitors and members all welcome. Class size capped at twenty-two — book a few days ahead for peak slots.
