Hot Yoga
Hot yoga is practiced in a studio heated to over 36 degrees Celsius. The heat penetrates the muscles, deeply loosens the body, and accelerates the release of tension far beyond what a practice at room temperature allows. It is a powerful tool for detoxification through perspiration and the release of accumulated tension.
At ÈST, each course is followed by access to the thermal baths — hot baths, sauna, cold bath — in order to deepen relaxation.
We offer two ways to approach hot yoga:
Vinyasa Flow — A dynamic sequence where movement follows the breath. We move, we strengthen, we raise our energy. An invigorating practice to fully inhabit our bodies.
Yin — Long-held postures on the floor to stretch deep tissues and calm the nervous system. Slowing down, releasing, grounding. (Not to be confused with restorative yoga: Yin focuses on deep stretching, whereas restorative yoga primarily aims for complete rest.)
Yoga Shinrin-Yoku
In the summer, hot yoga classes are put on hold and moved to the heart of the cedar forest. Shinrin-yoku, or "forest bathing," is a practice that originated in Japan: immersing oneself in the forest, slowing down, and allowing the senses to reconnect with nature. Under the cedars, the air is cooler, more humid, and rich in compounds that the trees naturally release—those associated with stress reduction, mental calm, and deeper sleep. Forest bathing is a powerful tool for grounding and soothing the nervous system.
The formula remains the same as hot yoga — Vinyasa Flow or Yin —, it is the setting that changes: this time, the forest is the studio.
Public Classes
Open to everyone, our public classes bring together up to 6 people in a friendly atmosphere. It's a chance to exercise alongside familiar faces or meet new people. Because moving together creates connections. Social bonds are a recognized source of happiness. Opening up to others, forging new connections—that's also part of taking care of yourself.
Private Classes
Want to share the experience with loved ones and strengthen existing bonds? Book a private class for your group. A fixed price equivalent to the cost for 5 people, and you can have up to 6. The 6th spot is free. It's the perfect opportunity to strengthen and nurture your relationships—with family, friends, or colleagues.

Experience
Yoga and thermotherapy
1 hour 15 min + 1 hour 45 min
[Thuya]
At ÈST, each yoga class is followed by 1 hour and 45 minutes of thermotherapy: hot baths, sauna, and cold plunge. This is the logical continuation of the work begun on the mat and what makes our offering unique.
Yoga warms the body, mobilizes muscles, and releases tension. Thermotherapy then deepens this already well-established work: the heat of baths and saunas relaxes already loosened muscles, while cold baths stimulate circulation and tone the body.
The result: a much more complete release than with yoga alone. You leave the mat with an open body, you leave the baths deeply rested. 1 hour 15 minutes of movement, 1 hour 45 minutes of relaxation — three hours just for you.
