We are thrilled to announce the opening of Oxygen Yoga & Fitness Liberty Village, the second Toronto location to open from Canada’s Original FAR infrared Hot Yoga & Fitness Fusion studios.

Yogis and sweat seeking fitness enthusiasts alike will find a unique variety of 45 to 60 min classes in a ‘styling & profilin” boutique studio. Oxygen Yoga & Fitness Liberty Village offers group yoga and fitness fusion classes with intense cardio and core workouts, balance, flexibility & strengthening complimented by deep breathing, relaxation and calming of the mind all in a state of the art FAR Infrared heated therapy. The darkness, music & heat will take you to a level you’ve never been before .

 

Walking into an Oxygen Yoga & Fitness Infrared Studio immediately feels like you’ve landed on a tropical beach! Oxygen offers state of the art FAR Infrared technology that raises the body’s core temperature in a natural, comfortable way without blowing dry air or humidity. The warm balmy temperature wraps around you as you prepare for the most powerful, moving, body changing workout you’ve ever experienced.

Unlike traditional hot yoga studios that push out hot air, Oxygen Yoga & Fitness uses FAR Infrared heated panels that heat you from the inside out, targeting your body at a deeper cellular level where most toxins and health issues arise from. Oxygen also incorporates a special air filtration system extracting any moistened air in the room and pumps in fresh air (oxygen) to allow clean and clear, easy breathing, hence the name “Oxygen Yoga & Fitness.”

The Oxygen parent company started in 2008 with the first franchise location opening in March of 2012.  Since then, Oxygen Yoga & Fitness has been steadily expanding and growing. There are currently over 70 locations across Canada. Each offering a wide variety and selection of traditional yoga and fitness fusion classes.

Classes are arranged from Level 1 through Level 3.  The levels are determined by the student’s capability.  Level 1 is for those new to yoga or who want a slower and easier practice.  This level can include those recovering from an injury or those who are feeling low on energy.  Level 2 is for those with some basic experience in poses and who exercise regularly.  The classes are structured to flow from one exercise to the next, whether in yoga or in another fitness style class.  The Level 3 classes are for those who want more of a challenge.  Members at this level have a good understanding of poses and exercises and can adapt to the more difficult poses.

 

ABOUT FAR INFRARED TECHNOLOGY

State of the art infrared heated studios are proven to help burn double the calories while providing a great detox! Infrared Heat is an invisible wave of energy that has the ability to penetrate all the layers of the human body allowing the most inner regions of our bodies to benefit from the heat. Naturally Infrared waves are emitted from the sun, our hands and our bodies. By using the Far Infrared heating in the studios, members are able to benefit from this therapy by detoxifying and eliminating heavy metals and carcinogens from their bodies. As waves are absorbed by your body, molecules begin to vibrate, causing them to start to expel the toxins, fat and impurities from your cells into your blood stream. These are released from your body in the form of sweat. The result is an incredible detoxifying effect at a cellular level. Benefits of Oxygen’s Infrared Heat include improved skin elasticity, a stronger immune system, less fatigue, fat loss, reduced water retention, and a great way to lose weight by burning 35% more calories!

 

FAR INFRARED BENEFITS

• DETOXIFICATION: Sweating is the body’s natural way to heal and stay healthy. FAR Infrared heat raises the body’s core temperature in a natural, comfortable way without blowing dry air or humidity. The result is a detoxifying sweat at the cellular level.
• WEIGHT LOSS: Studies have shown that a 60 minute FAR Infrared sauna session can burn upwards of 600 calories while you relax! As the body works to cool itself, there is a substantial increase in heart rate, cardiac output and metabolic rate causing the body to burn more calories. Now pair that with a workout at any fitness level and imagine the possibilities.
• PAIN RELIEF: FAR Infrared heat penetrates the tissue, joints and muscles relieving minor aches and pains. It can also speed up injury recovery and reduce symptoms of chronic pain and stiffness.
• SKIN PURIFICATION: FAR Infrared technology can help purify your skin by eliminating toxins from your pores and increasing circulation resulting in clearer, healthier skin.
