Welcome to Hot Yoga Naples
We’re so glad you’re here. Whether you’re brand new to yoga or just new to the heat, this page will help you feel prepared, confident, and excited for your first class.
🔥 Tips for Your First Class
1. Hydrate Before You Arrive
Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Hydration is key to feeling strong in the heat.
2. Come on an Empty-ish Stomach
Avoid heavy meals for 2–3 hours before class, but a light snack like fruit or toast 1 hour prior is okay.
3. Dress Light
Wear fitted, moisture-wicking clothing that you can move and sweat in comfortably.
4. Bring the Essentials
• A yoga mat
• A large towel (to cover your mat)
• A bottle of water
(We have mats, towels, and electrolytes available for purchase or rent if needed!)
5. Arrive Early
Get to the studio 15 minutes early to settle in, meet your teacher, and ask any questions.
6. Take It at Your Pace – Enjoy the journey
There’s no pressure to do everything perfectly. Rest when you need. Just stay in the room and breathe.
7. Come Back Within 24 Hours
We highly recommend taking your second class within 24 hours of your first. It helps your body adjust to the heat more quickly and amplifies the physical and mental benefits.
8. Keep Showing Up
The first few classes are about adjusting to the heat and rhythm. The magic happens with consistency!
