Hot yoga is to practice specific movements in a specific environment to give the body a comprehensive workout, and the movements are relatively fixed.

Traditional yoga has many variations in movements, which can be freely combined under the premise of conforming to the principles of body function, and the content of each class is generally different.

The difference in breathing:

Because hot yoga requires more oxygen supply during practice, it is necessary to use breathing exercises to maintain the balance of oxygen in the body. Therefore, hot yoga has fixed breathing exercises at the beginning and end of the practice.

There are many types of breathing exercises in ordinary yoga, with many variations, and most of them are practiced at the beginning of the class.
