Hot Yoga Sanford

I went to many classes when Julie taught at the other hot yoga school. She is a very good teacher who cares about the well-being of her students. She works very hard to constantly increase her knowledge about the mind and body and passes that knowledge to her students.

Hot Yoga Sanford is a fabulous studio offering the original hot yoga, Bikram, now referred to as 26/2. Julie, the owner, is very professional, and the studio is well-kept and clean. Bring your mat towel and water, and prepare to transform your body from bones to skin.

Needing some hot Bikram yoga in your life? Come join instructor Julie Tonks for a 90-minute hot Bikram yoga! Bikram yoga had helped my body become more flexible and rid lower back pain. It’s been a ten years since I practiced Bikram and am so glad Julie Tonks offer the original 90-minute Bikram yoga classes at Hot Yoga Sanford. $20 per 90-minute class. Bring your water bottle, towel, and yoga mat. (Yoga mat are available for $2 rental.) That little gardener in me had to take pictures of the tiny garden the landlord had in the midst of this little corner area in downtown Sanford next to the yoga studio. My first introduction to Bikram yoga was at Bikram Yoga Richardson in Texas. I remembered I was told that the goal for the very first class is to focus on survival mode, basically to not leave the hot yoga room during the 90 minutes. By the third class, I was able to participate through the 26 Bikram yoga poses in the heat.

Julie is an excellent teacher! She brings a calm and informative tone to the practice and truly cares about her students. I have learned so much about myself here and have grown physically and mentally! I love supporting this local, woman owned studio!

This is a really lovely studio, located right in Sanford's historic downtown, and Julia is an awesome teacher. I sought out Sanford Hot Yoga for help with muscle tightness and lower back pain, and the results from even just one class have been tremendous. Truly a day-and-night kind of difference. Also, I had no prior Bikram experience and found Julie's teaching style very approachable.
