What is Power Life?

We believe our studios and our community are something everyone should experience. At Power Life, we embrace people at every level of fitness. We encourage you to take as many different class formats and teachers to see firsthand how Power Life can benefit your life.

Our dynamic classes empower all levels of practitioners to find stress reduction, increased blood circulation, detoxification and improved sleep. Check out our list of frequently asked questions below to prepare you for your first class. We look forward to seeing you at the studio!

 

Am I going to sweat?

The short answer? Probably, yes. We suggest wearing lightweight, comfortable workout attire that you feel comfortable moving in and don’t mind getting sweaty. Stay hydrated during class. Bring a water bottle or buy one from us for $2. A hand towel or shower towel might also be helpful for sweaty palms or feet. We also have those available to rent at the front desk.

What if I need to take a break during class?

We get it! It’s important to listen to your body, and sometimes your body needs a breather. It is always okay to take a quick break during class in child’s pose.

Can I shower at Power Life after class?

Of course! Our changing rooms have lockers, showers and lavatories for students’ use. Feel free to stay to get ready for the rest of your day or night after class is over. Since we encourage students to leave all their belongings in the locker room, we also have locks available upon request at the front desk.

I’m a complete beginner. Can I do Power Yoga?

Absolutely. We want beginners to come and experience everything Power Life has to offer. All of our classes are open to all levels, but our Power 1 class is a great place to start. This is a semi-heated, beginner level class that provides instruction to proper posture alignment and is a good introduction to Power Yoga.

I’m not flexible. Can I do yoga?

You don’t have to be flexible to start a yoga practice. Flexibility is something that Power Yoga builds for you. It is a journey not a destination.

Will workouts at Power Life be physically challenging?

Our classes are based in Power Yoga, which is a fast-paced and challenging type of yoga. It’s not just stretching in a hot room! Power Yoga is a physical practice that combines all facets of physical fitness and healthy well-being. We have taken traditional yoga and made it faster, harder and way more fun – but we certainly have not left out the mental aspects. Get ready to sweat and challenge your body and mind in new ways.

Can you tell me more about the heat?

The majority of our classes are taught in a heated or semi-heated room. We really like it HOT, but trust that there is intention for the temperature of each class type. We also train our teachers how to control the heat for the safety of all students. Benefits of practicing in a heated environment include: It helps stretch muscle fibers; It aids in injury prevention; It helps eliminate toxins from the body; It increases your heart rate for added challenge; It enhances your metabolism.

What are the benefits of practicing Power Yoga?

Well, there truly are countless benefits from starting a yoga practice of any kind! Power Yoga, in particular, works the entire body and improves strength, balance, flexibility, core power and mental wellbeing. The physical improvements are just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Power Yoga. Other benefits include stress reduction, increased blood circulation, detoxification and improved sleep.

My child wants to attend class with me. Is that allowed?

If your child is between 12-16 years of age, he or she can attend class with you or another adult. As with any workout, however, we encourage you to consult a physician about the effects of the heat before bringing your child to any class.

Do teachers offer hands-on assists?

Our instructors are encouraged to offer hands-on assists during all classes. If you are interested in receiving assists, grab one of the assisting cards from the holder near the back of your classroom and place it at the top of your mat. At the end of class, place your card back into the holder so a member of our staff can disinfect it. If you are not interested in receiving hands-on assists, there is no need to do anything. Your instructor will respect your wishes and encourage you in other ways throughout class. If you’d like to learn more about how and why we assist at Power Life, check out this blog post.

What should I wear to class?

We suggest wearing lightweight, comfortable workout attire that you feel comfortable moving in and don’t mind getting sweaty.
