Thursday 10.20am.
Whether you are just starting out, or if you are already a "hard-core" yogi, I'm going to show you why you may NOT be getting the most from your hot yoga poses.
More importantly, I'm going to show you why you are possibly even risking injury - and exactly what you can do about it!
Is Hot Yoga Too Formulaic?
Perhaps, like me, you first chose hot yoga because you wanted to get trimmed and toned or to get fit.
Or maybe you wanted to find a deeper focus, a stronger emotional balance and a fulfilling and lasting happiness.
And maybe like me, you discovered you could gain a whole lot more once you started practicing regularly!
There is no doubt hot yoga has had a profound affect on my life ... as I am sure it does for you! But did you know that many hot yoga classes are taught to a "script"?
While this is great for helping popularize yoga classes, and many classes seem great, it makes it much more difficult to dramatically improve your practice and take your benefits to the next level.
How Can You Dramatically
(And Safely)
Improve Your Hot Yoga Practice?
Why is it hard to improve - even when classes feel great?
Because the finessing, the nuances, the subtleties, the knowledge of yoga anatomy and the capability to teach to a very high standard do NOT come from using a script to teach yoga.
And it is HARD to find precise information and detailed advice – there is precious little available.
I've seen students making classic mistakes time and time again (and some teachers who are unable to offer a correction*) because they have never been taught how to correct them.
Even worse, you could happily be following your teacher's script, thinking your movements and pose positions are correct, when in fact, there are times when you could be at risk of injury!
*I really DO want to acknowledge that there are amazing hot yoga teachers that ARE doing a wonderful job – making the "script" their own, changing people's lives - and helping raise the bar.
You Could Be Unknowingly
Putting Yourself At Risk Of Injury
It really worries me when people say: "Go back until it hurts", "It's supposed to hurt like hell", "Kill yourself".
It should worry you too! ... But only if you are interested in dramatically improving the benefits you get from your own practice.
Any yoga (not just hot yoga) needs much more than a rote-learned, motivational "script" to be safe and effective.
Because if you are serious about getting the most out of your practice, you'll want to learn exactly how to apply accurate techniques to make changes ... but where IS that information?
To cut along story short, over the last 10 years I have been researching, teaching, coaching and mentoring hot yoga students from all around the world - and I decided it was about time to put it all together in some type of helpful resource.
Little did I realize what I was getting myself into!
I Ended Up Sharing
ALL My Best Work!
What I thought would initially be a step-by-step guide, has evolved over 18 months of pouring my heart, soul and sweat into what is now "The Hot Yoga MasterClass™", a 304-page Manual and 2 x DVD Set*.

So now, if:
- You want to transform your own practice
- You want to learn in a few weeks what it took me years to discover
- You want to breakthrough "plateaus" in your poses
- You want to uncover EXACTLY what needs to improve in your pose alignment
- You want to reduce the risk of injury
- You want to accommodate existing injuries – and still practice safely
- You want to safely and effectively modify a pose to suit YOUR body type
- You want to learn which parts of a pose to focus on ... and why
- You want to learn how to focus, remove distractions and gain a deeper satisfaction from your class
- You want to know how to advance in your own practice and "where to go next" – even if your teacher isn't aware or sufficiently experienced
- You want to know how to continue practicing even if you encounter overly dogmatic - or worse – aggressive teachers (yes, can you believe it? They DO exist!)
- You want to set up a home practice – including how to set up and heat your room
- You want to make this amazing yoga be the life-changing practice it can be (and if you already think it's life changing ... well I agree with you! Imagine how much MORE of a difference you can make when you "discover what you didn't know"!)
* DVDs have over 9 hours of class variety, including Double Set, Single Set and a Full 90-Minute Hot Yoga Class.
Then you'll LOVE The Hot Yoga MasterClass™!
Here are just a FEW of the things you'll learn ...
- Discover the critical correction that you can make to transform Triangle pose from having you feel like you are falling over, to a pose that makes you feel STRONG and INVINCIBLE every single time.
- Find out the simple change in the way you think about Eagle pose that will get you rock solid alignment every time, regardless of whether you have a good 'wrap' .
- Understand where your extended arm should be placed in Standing Bow and how it has a profound effect on your backbend. Hint: It is not where you think.
- How to work out YOUR key foot distance in Standing Separate Leg Intense Stretch that minimizes any risk of back injury ... without inadvertently reversing your benefits.
- Learn the 3 different ways to get into Toe Stand final position, depending on your body geometry.
- Learn the 1 shoulder adjustment that will dramatically shift your floor Savasana to create the cleansing, calming, healing space it should be.

- Discover 2 alternatives to a sit-up when you are too tired, your back is too sore, too weak or your body is injured.
- Learn the key shoulder and arm position that hugely improves your ability to perform the double leg lift in Locust.
- Melt the confusion away to work out ALL the differences between Head to Knee and Intense Stretch in a way that makes complete sense - and helps you easily make your own micro-adjustments.
- How to transform the entry to specific poses if you ever have an acute backache, that will still allow you to get the benefits and participate in class, while healing your back.
- Discover how to make fast progress in Triangle even when you have been previously unable to open your hips because it felt unstable or dangerous.
- Learn how to just about guarantee excellent alignment in Separate Leg Head to Knee by preserving the technique but changing your approach.
- Banish the unnecessary movements in your class that have somehow slipped into most people's practices over the years. Get rid of them forever and create a better, stronger, more focused hot yoga practice .
Gabrielle Raiz teaches yoga with the detail and insight you really need to transform yourself and your practice.
Using this beautiful book, you will be able to overcome physical and mental limitations you thought were permanent, and move to a new level of practice that is difficult to achieve just through attending class or practising alone.
I use tips and adjustments that Gabrielle taught me every day of my life, and her book is an inspiration, thank you.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!!!!
I just received my MasterClass package and have spent the past 3 hours pouring over the material.
Gabrielle, you have covered every possible question that could ever be asked. The pictures are beautiful and very self-explanatory. They say a picture is worth a thousand words and these pictures are worth a million.
I haven't watched the DVDs yet, but I'm sure they'll live up to my expectations.
If anyone has a hesitation about buying MasterClass, don't even think twice. This the manual that Bikram forgot. So many light bulbs went off in my head about certain postures. I can't wait to go to class to implement the variations.
No, I am not on Gabrielle's payroll, LOL. I have nothing to gain from this except a better yoga practice.
Keep up the great work Gabrielle (and Robert). The MasterClass is masterful!

So What Exactly IS
The Hot Yoga MasterClass™?
Imagine a coffee-table-quality, atlas-sized manual (I'll tell you exactly what is in the DVDs a little later) filled with 744 large, high quality photos and plain-english explanations for every step – INCLUDING common mistakes and how to fix them – and you're starting to get a sense of what I've put together for you.
Here's what's in it:
The Hot Yoga MasterClass™ is a 304-page high-quality hot yoga reference manual.

- A 54 page introductory section covers "everything you need to know" (and this is not just for beginners – I've had advanced students look at the material and uncover a ton of new things to try!)
- The introductory section also includes a full chapter on the most common injuries and conditions - and the general modifications required. Where this is specific to only one or two poses, it is cross-referenced and shown in detail in the specific pose chapter.
- Then, chapter-by-chapter I take apart each and every pose, using the following format:
- The Essentials
- What Makes This Pose So Difficult To Get Right?
- The Technique
- Common Mistakes And How To Fix Them
I'll expand on these various sections in a moment ... but first I need to tell you about the most amazing thing ... the photos and why they will really make the difference.
Every Precise Detail
Is Meticulously Demonstrated
With
Full Color
Hi-Definition Photography
There are over 740 professionally photographed pictures in the manual (744 to be exact). I spent literally weeks and weeks sifting through the MANY THOUSANDS of shots we took over many days, to find EVERY ANGLE that would make the difference in showing you the exact technique.
I've included ALL the subtleties and nuances I've learned and taught over the years, some of which are not so easy to photograph! We had to use a trick set-up with 3-cameras and a fourth roving camera to catch every aspect of every pose as we photographed our models (real students just like you and I) demonstrating them.
ALL "technique" shots are LARGE PHOTOS - this makes it very easy to see the incredible detail.
The technique photos are deliberately larger to make it very easy to stand up, try them out and see them from a distance.
The "models" are regular yoga students, just like you and I. Normal bodies. Some flexible, others less so. (Of course I think they do look gorgeous in their outfits too ...).
Mistakes discussed are also shown photographically. Sometimes we had to stop because we were laughing so much trying to do something "deliberately wrong" – but the result was worth the effort.
You'll see EXACTLY what not to do – but more importantly you'll also see HOW TO CORRECT IT.
Each pose chapter is "color-coded" – so it is easy to reference quickly. Even the clothing is color-coded for consistency.
The manual is constructed from high-quality paper (you can't see through it). It is designed to be a lasting practical tool which will still look great on your coffee table in years to come.
It is "spiral bound" so that it will lay flat perfectly. This is SO important when you come to use it for practicing. Who likes to "break the spine" of a beautiful book in order to use it? Not me!

Each Pose Chapter Is Divided
Into Easy To Follow Sections
So let me explain the sections in more detail – one of which I think is the absolute key.
"The Essentials"
An overview of the main elements of the posture, The "Essentials" helps you get clearly focused on the main pose objectives.
"What Makes This Pose
So Difficult To Get Right?"
Funnily enough, it isn't always the obvious challenge in certain poses that makes them tricky to get "just right ". I've singled out what I've found to be the real key (or keys in many cases) to making the pose work effectively, no matter what depth you practice to.
"The Technique"
This is where the rubber meets the road – this section literally takes you step-by-step through the pose:
- How To Set Up
- How To Get Into The Pose
- What You Should Be Experiencing
- How To Get Out Of The Pose
- ... and more!
There is really too much to list here, but I also reference the best breathing rhythm for the pose and various other tips and techniques to guide you through the posture.
Each and every step is accompanied by photographs demonstrating that exact step.
It is also color-coded so the steps stand-out on the page - this makes it super-easy to follow each step as you are practicing the pose.
Where there are variations between "sets", or there is a "deeper version" these are included here.
To My Knowledge, The Information
In This Section Of The Manual Is
Not Available Anywhere Else:
"Common Mistakes
And How To Fix Them"
I believe this is totally unique! I have never seen a yoga book – let alone a hot yoga manual – where so much detailed effort has been put into showing photos of REAL PEOPLE doing the poses WRONG ... along with text and photos of HOW TO FIX THEM.
I have put every ounce of my years of discovery into this section – every pose chapter includes this, including Savasana – so if there's a common mistake you've come across and have been wondering how to fix it, you'll most likely find it in this section!
Where possible, I've placed the mistake and the "correct alignment" together, with a checkmark (tick) on the correct pose so it's easy to find.
ALL mistake photos are bordered so they are clearly differentiated from the much larger "technique" photos.
You'll always be clear which is which!
Also in the "common mistakes" section are some "gray areas". Not everyone's body can do every pose in the way it is intended, so there ARE exceptions where a modification can "look" like a mistake, when it isn't. Where this is the case, I spell out acceptable modifications, along with photos labeled with an asterisk (*).

Large, Easy To Read Format
The Hot Yoga MasterClass™ is deliberately large (like I say, think "atlas dimensions").
This is so you can extract maximum detail from each high-definition picture. We used a three camera setup during the photo-shoots so that side, front and overhead photos could be taken while the student was in the pose. We also used a roving camera for super-duper detailed close-ups and funky angles.
I designed the manual in a large format so you can gain maximum benefit from all these amazing photos!

The Hot Yoga MasterClass™ DVDs
Yes ... it's true, you can't learn everything from a book!
Sometimes, to obtain the maximum benefits, you need to hear the instructions AND see the image at the same time.
So I've made not one, but TWO very unique DVDs.

What Makes Them Unique?
Because they use the live soundtrack from my classes! You'll hear me instructing the very details explained in the manual – and you'll also hear this in a live environment with real students (I even mention them by name during the class!).

I deliberately did NOT video-tape a live class, because, in my opinion, this makes it difficult, if not impossible to show ALL angles, and every correction visually.
Quite uniquely, I have gone a few steps further and put crystal-clear detailed and precise photographic demonstrations at each exact point on the DVD where the audio track mentions them (watch the snippets above and you'll see what I mean).
DVD Benefits
- You can play the DVD as a stand-alone class. Or you can use it as a reference that you will come back to time and time again.
- Bullet point text appears at key moments to reinforce your quick understanding.
- "Right" and "wrong" pose alignments are shown with green checks (ticks) and red crosses – no mistaking which is which.
- The background is pure white. No unnecessary distractions.
- I also had Volume One made so you can navigate directly to ANY POSE you wish to see specifically! (Just like a "scene selection" in a movie.)
- Even more exciting is that both DVDs contain class variations!
Running out of time? Wish you had a 40-min class? Simply use the DVD menu, press "play" ... and you're good to go!
What Is The Difference
Between The Two DVDs?
You are probably aware that in the hot yoga community, many poses are practiced twice in quick succession. But when I travel I love to practice a "one-set-no-savasana" class which takes about 35-40 mins. It feels great and I keep my commitment to my personal practice!
So Volume One has a variety of classes constructed from the "traditional" or more common "double-set" poses.
And Volume Two is only constructed from single "sets".
Here's EXACTLY What's In The DVDs:
Volume One
- A 35-minute class
- A 60-minute class
- A 75-minute class
- A 90-minute class
- An all standing poses "class" (double set)
- An all floor poses "class" (double set)
- Pose-by-pose menu selection
Total "running time" (all class variations): 5 hrs 50mins
Volume Two
- Warm–up with standing poses, 20 minute class
- The 25 minute Pick-Me-Up class, moderate intensity
- The 35 minute class, moderate intensity
- The 50 minute strong class
- The Standing pose class (single set)
- The Floor pose class (single set)
Total "running time" (all class variations): 4 hrs 05mins
As you can see, the DVDs are quite different.
* DVDs are REGION FREE, professionally pressed & printed (not burned) and will play on any DVD Player and on both NTSC and PAL systems.
So ... How Can You
Lay Your Hands On This Material?
And I'm sure you're also thinking ... "how much is this all going to cost?".
To be honest, I've had marketing experts who have seen the Hot Yoga MasterClass™ manual tell me that up to $300 is not unreasonable for such detailed and highly photographic material of a limited nature. I guess they must be thinking about the text-books they had to purchase at Harvard!
No ... it's way less than that!
My aim is to keep the manual down to about the price of a typical monthly pass or around 15 classes (class prices vary enormously by the way!).
This Is Valuable,
Life-Changing
Information!
You can do the sums for yourself: You could go to class 5 times per week for up to a year. In that time, you would literally spend well over $1,000 on monthly passes but STILL not make the kind of IMMEDIATE improvements that other owners of The Hot Yoga MasterClass™ are raving about.
