I have been attending different yoga studios for many years and I really enjoy getting to know the environment of each one.
One consistent element that I notice most yoga studios opt for is a central HVAC system.
At first I didn’t love having a central HVAC during a yoga session because if you are positioned near an air vent, you may feel the cooled or heated air directly on you and your mat. Unless you are signed up for a hot yoga class, having forced heated air might not be the most pleasurable experience. I think yoga studios prefer central cooling and heating so that they don’t have to worry about the noise of some other cooling and heating options. Air ducts can sometimes be noisy if they aren’t maintained well, and I have definitely heard some noisy ones at some studios throughout my experience. Some yoga studios opt to forgo air conditioning and heating as a whole so that people can be submerged into a pure natural experience where they open up the windows and doors. This is nice if the weather is ideal, but I can imagine some clients would still want the power heat on a particularly hot day. I love doing yoga and meditation and am so thankful that I’ve been able to attend as many studios as I have. I wish that more people trusted in this ancient practice because it’s been completely transformational for me. I absolutely adore being able to connect with myself in deep and meaningful ways through movement and meditation.
