Shiva Yoga has been a blessing to the surrounding communities of Columbus/Hamilton/Pine Mountain/LaGrange. The classes suit all levels/backgrounds/ages. She is able to weave together movements that are powerful yet calming for your nervous system. I have been to so many yoga classes across the US.

My new happy place!! Great instructors, great options for classes from beginner level to advanced. The studio itself is just a lovely little home that feels so cozy, like you are doing a little yoga get-together in your friend's living room! And sauna too??!! Yes please and thank you!

Teacher training at Shiva Yoga and Wellness

Shiva Yoga and Wellness comes up for teacher training — confirmed on their own site. If you're thinking about becoming an instructor, a few things are worth asking up front. First, which certification the program leads to — most hot-yoga trainings are Yoga Alliance registered (RYT-200 or RYT-500), and the style matters: a Bikram or hot-power lineage trains differently than a hot-vinyasa or sculpt one. Second, the schedule and prerequisites — cohorts often run in intensive weekend blocks or over several months, and many studios want you practicing regularly there first. Third, cost and payment plans, and whether tuition includes an unlimited membership for the training period. Teacher training is a real commitment of time and money, so it's worth a call or an info session before you enroll.

Your first hot yoga class at Shiva Yoga and Wellness

Nervous about your first hot class? Almost everyone is, and a good studio expects beginners to walk in the door. Here's what to know. What to expect: the room is heated, so it feels intense for the first few minutes — rest in child's pose any time you need to, no one will bat an eye. Hydrate: drink water through the day before class, not just as you arrive, and bring a bottle. What to bring: a mat and towel, water, and a change of clothes; wear something light you don't mind sweating through, and skip a heavy meal in the couple of hours beforehand. Arrive 10–15 minutes early to sign in and set up. It gets easier fast — most people say their third class feels completely different from their first.

Heat and intense exercise aren't right for everyone — if you're pregnant or have heart, blood-pressure, or other health concerns, check with a doctor before your first hot class.
