Frequently Asked Questions
Beginner
I am a complete beginner what do I do?
Register with us, download our app, choose one of the two intro offers, book classes with the app and begin.
Why take an intro offer?
Intro offers are available to new customers only. Intro offers are designed to give you a taste of our classes, so you can experience and work out what times and classes will suit you. Unlimited Intro offers are the most bought options as you can come as many times as you want over that duration. You can take this offer only once before buying any other packages. Please note, once you have bought a drop-in, you are not considered a new customer.
Which classes are suitable for complete beginners?
Classes with "Beginner", "Stretch", "Hatha", "Yin", "Pilates" and "Restorative" in the name are suitable for complete beginners. Hot yoga is a set sequence and is beginner friendly - just hot. Classes with "Flow" or "Vinyasa" - assume some basic knowledge of alignment of postures, so best to do them after 6-8 weeks of practice. For any class, that you are unsure about - consult the timetable and each of the class has a key for temperature and whether it is suitable for Beginners or not. If in doubt, contact us and we will guide you.
What do I do once the intro offer has expired?
Once the offer has expired, decide how many times you are likely to practice with us in a week and choose the pricing option that would be right for you. If you can only come once a week or fewer, choose either the Flexi Pass option or drop-in option. If you are thinking of coming twice a week, choose - monthly unlimited (subscription) package. We also have a monthly Sweet 6 (subscription) option, which gives you access to 6 classes in a month. There are options to pay in advance for a month or a year too.

What do I expect from doing yoga
Why do hot yoga?
Hot yoga burns lots of calories, creates a cardiovascular boost and allows you to stretch more deeply. It can also improve circulation and skin quality as sweating can improve blood flow which helps deliver nutrients to the skin cells. Hot yoga is a great detox and allows you to go deeper in each posture. Due to the repetitive nature of the sequence, it is easier to get the hang of and see the improvements each week. Please bring a mat towel for Hot yoga.
Can I lose weight with yoga?
Yes, hot yoga and fitness classes with HIIT and fit in the name are designed to burn calories. If you have a good well balanced diet alongside it, you will lose weight.
Can I do yoga even if I am not flexible?
Yes, increasing flexibility is an outcome of yoga practice. You will overtime loosen up and become flexible by increasing space in your joints.
Can I become strong by doing yoga?
Yes, yoga is a balanced workout between strength and flexibility. Our active classes are designed to make you strong.

What Our Clients Say About Us
When I arrived at Yoga Hook, I was immediately made to feel at ease by the welcoming and friendly team at reception. I tried the flotation therapy experience which was amazing and I felt genuinely relaxed and peaceful both during the session and afterwards also. I would highly recommend the experience to anyone who is looking to de-stress, relax and recharge their batteries and I will certainly be going again soon!
Sarah Stigzelius
Really lovely studio with great yoga teachers and friendly team
Minal Patel
Heidi's attention to detail during our healing yoga session is unmatched. I felt a strong sense of calm upon arrival to the studio, and every moment throughout the event was met with peace and tranquillity. It was a great experience!
Inga Thompson
As a slightly claustrophobic sceptic, I had put off my gift of a session in the flotation tank for some time. It was a case of now or never, so last night I took the plunge (!). I didn't think I would, but I climbed into the clam like structure, closed the lid and turned off the lights immediately. It was more welcoming than I had expected and the fact that it was pitch-dark and top sealed did not faze me. I loved the sensory deprivation and being alone with a complete sense of calm and relaxation was worth getting wet for. It did not feel, to me, like being in water, more like floating in space. It was an hour well spent, as I slept like a baby with the added bonus of really soft skin. I'll definitely do it again.
Jane Walder
My first experience with the floatation pod was very relaxing and it created a lasting sense of calmness throughout the following days. I didn't know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised by the fact that the pod can be easily opened or closed at any point. I'm not usually claustrophobic but it's nice to have complete control over getting in or out. It felt amazing to spend a whole hour feeling weightless and disconnected from the outside world. My muscles felt deeply relaxed and all of my senses turned inwards into a womb-like state. After the session I indulged myself to a luxurious long shower, all amenities provided. Everything was brilliant, including the convenient location, beautiful space and the friendly staff at the front desk.
