Heated

Sumits Yoga was created by Sumit Banerjee based on his own years of experience practicing and teaching various yoga styles including Bikram and Vinyasa. The class integrates the core principles of traditional hot Bikram yoga and power flow yoga which is Ashtanga inspired.
Sumits Yoga series classes are a creative and effective combination of static poses, vinyasa flow, upbeat music, and heat. The series is mindfully designed and proven to strengthen, heal, and rejuvenate. Whether you’re brand new to yoga, or you’re looking to supplement a regular yoga practice, Sumits truly offers something for everyone. The series stays the same each class, but no two practices are ever identical, the challenge is yours to create!

Vinyasa Flow yoga emphasizes the sequential movement between postures, coordinated with and guided by deliberate breath. The Vinyasa practice becomes a moving meditation that creates strength, freedom, and fluidity in the body and mind. Every Vinyasa Flow is designed by the instructor and will vary each time. Expect a fully balanced class where all levels are welcome.

Yin Yoga is a slow-paced style of yoga as exercise with asanas (postures) that are held for longer periods of time - for beginners, it may range from 45 seconds to two minutes; more advanced practitioners may stay in one asana for five minutes or more. Yin Yoga poses apply moderate stress to the connective tissues of the body - the tendons, fascia, and ligaments - with the aim of increasing circulation in the joints and improving flexibility. A more meditative approach to yoga, its goals are awareness of inner silence, and bringing to light a universal, interconnecting quality.
