Benefits of Coconut Water:
For more than 4,000 years, coconut water has been revered as a natural source of nutrition, wellness, beauty and hydration. In times of famine and war, coconut water has been used as an intravenous fluid and saved many lives. It's the only natural substance that can be safely injected into the human blood stream. Now modern science has validated its effectiveness, especially as a natural sports drink.
ZICO contains the five essential electrolytes your body needs to keep nerves firing, muscles moving and to help manage stress. One ZICO has more potassium than a banana - 15 times more than most sports drinks - to prevent cramping and promote recovery. Drink ZICO before or during a workout for the natural energy you need for optimal performance. After a workout, ZICO replenishes and re-hydrates you to speed recovery.

ATTN: New Protocol for Between Classes!
One thing about hot yoga is...it sure can get sweaty! To continue to provide our students with impeccable facilities, we have implemented some new procedures.
There will be 'closed for cleaning' signs on the doors in between classes so staff can sanitize and clean the room. While these signs are hanging please DO NOT ENTER the hot room.
We ask that you wait in the lobby or cool down room until the signs are removed.
Here's to dry socks and fresh yoga!
Smelly Yogi Etiquette
In Bikram Yoga, breathing through your nose makes class easier and more productive. Have you ever tried to do this when the person beside you has an overwhelming scent of Old Spice or cigarettes?
In our continued efforts to make the studio as pleasurable as possible, please don't wear perfume in class. If you smoke, please shower before class.
Thank You
Congratulations to our 30 Day Challengers!
We are handing out high-fives to all of our 30 day challenge participants...

You guys rock, great job!
And to those of you who are still working hard to complete your 30 days in a row, KEEP AT IT! You're doing awesome!
