New Student Special
Beginning Your Yoga Practice
Yoga is a low-impact exercise that increases flexibility, reduces stress, and builds strength using your bodyweight as resistance. Yoga is for everybody. A wide range of people practice yoga from football players and golfers to runners and gymnasts. The practice teaches you how to move in new ways, and deepens your understanding of your body. Pressed Hot Yoga offers classes for all levels, so you’ll always find a yoga class to find your needs.
How to Prepare for Your First Pressed Hot Yoga Class
- Check out our class schedule. No reservations required, but classes do fill up.
- Check in 15 minutes early. We open up classes to walk in students at 10 minutes prior to class start.
- Bring a mat, water bottle, and towel or rent them from our studio.
- Wear fitted exercise clothes that you feel comfortable moving in.
- Late arrivals are honored up to five minutes after start time. If possible, please call ahead and we’ll put a mat out for you.
- Cancellation policy: full payment of class reserves your space. There are no refunds, but if you cancel 2 hours prior to class start, your payment is transferred to a studio credit.
Selecting Your First Yoga Class
Getting into the right class on your first visit, especially if you’re new to yoga, can make or break the studio experience. Set yourself up for success by choosing a class that makes sense for your experience level and goals. For new practitioners we recommend Hot Vinyasa 1 or Gentle Flow, or our Beginner Workshop.
If you need help choosing a class, email us at info@pressedmn.com and we can recommend a class to fit your needs.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT AT PRESSED HOT YOGA
Whether it’s a yoga class or first day at a new job, the unknowns of a first experience are stressful. At Pressed Hot Yoga, we want you to feel welcome and confident in your decision to practice with us. With this in mind we developed a yoga and fitness program that is challenging yet accessible, and designed a space for your practice that is clean, comfortable and functional. Come curious, and leave feeling stronger and more whole.
Skillful Instruction
All of our yoga teachers hold a minimum certification of a 200-hour Yoga Alliance approved program. Each has his or her own unique teaching style, but all emphasize safety, alignment and fun in the classroom. Take advantage of the variety of yoga and fitness classes during your first two weeks with Pressed Hot Yoga and try a variety of teachers to see what really works for you.
Studio Amenities
We’re always prepared – even when you’re not. We offer mat and towel rental service, so even if you walk in empty handed, you’ll be ready for class. You’ll also find the latest trends in active wear, as well as other items you may need in class, available for purchase in our well-stocked retail boutique. In addition, our zen and locker rooms ensure that you always have a place to gear up or wind out, even if you’re new to yoga.
How do I get started?
Start with our Free Week and explore as many classes as you’d like—yoga, barre, sculpt, restorative, or anything that calls to you. Once you’ve settled in, our front desk team can help you activate one of our one-time Extended Intro Offers, created to meet you exactly where you are in your practice:
-
2 Weeks Unlimited – $30
-
1 Month Unlimited – $75 (our best value)
-
10 Classes – $60 (60-day expiration)
To get started, create your user profile and reserve your first class. We encourage you to arrive 10–15 minutes early so you can get oriented, settle in, and feel supported from the moment you walk in.
Prefer to sign up in the studio? Arrive 15–20 minutes before class—we’re happy to assist you.
Please note: Guests who begin with a Groupon offer are not eligible for these introductory specials.
Where do I keep my things?
To help you fully unwind, we encourage you to store your personal items before entering class. You’ll find cubbies in the Zen Room and lockers in our locker room. Your belongings will be well cared for—our front desk staff monitors the lobby during peak hours, and the studio remains locked during quieter times.
For everyone’s comfort, phones must be turned off and placed with your belongings, as they are not allowed in the studio during any class.
Can I buy water at the studio?
We encourage members to bring a reusable water bottle to support our commitment to reducing waste. A filtered water dispenser is available in the studio for easy refills.
If you forget your bottle or need something cold before class, we also offer chilled bottled water for purchase in our fridge.
What should I wear?
Wear comfortable clothing that you can move in. Yoga is practiced barefoot. We ask that you leave your shoes in either a cubby in the zen room or in the locker room when you enter the studio.
Do I need to bring a yoga mat?
We have mats and yoga mat towels available for rental for $2 each. You can also rent the mat & towel together for $3.
Do you have showers?
Our locker rooms offer showers and changing areas.
Do teachers offer hands-on adjustments?
Sometimes teachers and assistants teach with their hands. If you prefer not to be touched, simply mention that to the teacher before or during class.
