Jal Yoga is a spacious yoga studio offering a number of unusual yoga classes – one of which is infrared yoga. Unlike hot yoga where temperatures can hit almost 40-degrees, infrared yoga is significantly cooler at 36-degrees but the main difference lies in the way heat is distributed. Infrared heat warms up your body – and only your body – without heating the surrounding air. That means you don’t have to struggle with a stuffy nose and fainting spells which can occur in a regular heated room.

At Jal Yoga, each mat has an infra heat panel directly above to ensure the infrared heat directly permeates your body – thus alleviating aches, increasing circulation, clearing skin issues, fighting incoming colds and eliminating flu.

Class types Over 20 different types of classes including Laughing Yoga, Kinetic Yoga, Bhakti Yoga, Runners' Yoga, and even Mat Pilates and Barre.
