Why Hot Yoga?
Our Infrared Heat warms your body from the inside. Heat takes the trauma out of stretching, heals and helps prevent injuries. Discover the fat melting, mind, body and heart strengthening, skin-looking-amazing, powerful practice ranging from Hot Vinyasa Flow and Hot Buti to Hot Yin and Warm and Gentle.
Know Before You Go

Acclimate and Modify
If you’re new to hot yoga or if you’re returning after a break from it, give your body time to adjust. Your initial exposure to heat should be without exercise. You may want to just sit still during portions of your first few classes. Start by holding poses for a fraction of the time the coach suggests, and build your endurance gradually with each session.
Hydrate
Acclimate and Modify
Acclimate and Modify
Drink at least 16 ounces of water two hours before class, drinking frequently during the practice, and consuming 20 to 40 ounces afterward for every hour of exercise.
Grin and Bare It
Acclimate and Modify
Listen to Your Body
Sweating is the body’s primary defense against overheating, and bare skin allows your body to release heat more easily.

Listen to Your Body
You are here to take care of you, in this moment, at your current age with your present body type and minor afflictions. Accept yourself where you are and you will have a great practice. If you try to compete with your younger self or anyone else in the room, you may end up feeling sick or worse, injuring yourself. Get out of your head and be keenly aware of your body. Pay close attention to your body’s reaction to the environment. You’ll know when you need to take a break. We all like a challenge. We wouldn’t be here if we didn’t. We will help you find a balance between pulling out that last ounce of effort to hold a pose and pushing too hard when all of your endurance is gone. In short, check your ego at the door and take care of yourself. Rather than fleeing, rest, on your back, in a seated position or in child’s pose.

What to Bring With You
Children and Hot Yoga
Children handle high temperatures differently than adults in that they absorb heat more than adults do. They also have a smaller blood volume, which makes it harder for them to dissipate the heat, and their slower rate of sweat production effects their ability to cool off. Children under 14 years of age will not be allowed to practice in our studio, but we highly encourage an at home practice to prepare them for studio practice in the future. For safety reasons and to minimize distractions, children will not be allowed to wait in the lobby during class.

I have been involved in the fitness industry for over 25 years as a group fitness instructor and coordinator. It was my involvement in helping grow our group fitness program that lead me to my first YogaFit instructor training. After the first day of that training, I knew that I had found my passion. I pursued two more certifications with YogaFit as well as training in chair yoga. The first time I tried hot yoga, I didn’t understand it. The second time I tried it, I dropped my ego and went in with an open mind. By the third try, I experienced that mixed feeling of extreme intensity coupled with the detoxification, increased flexibility, and relaxation that is indescribable. My journey became my dream and with the help of my husband and my family, this dream became reality when we opened Surrender Hot Yoga Studio. My advice to anyone who asks about hot yoga is always this; Give it three tries, leave your ego at the door and remember that yoga is a practice. It doesn’t matter if everything is perfect. It is a chance to slow down, be present and learn to love and honor your body.

My name is Alyssa and I am a 200 hour certified yoga teacher. I am married to my high school sweetheart & we have two beautiful little girls. To me, yoga is less about the 'perfect' pose, and more about an opportunity to use my breath to bring my mind back into my body in a place of both presence and ease. The ability to provide my community with a comfortable, safe and judgment-free space to either begin or enhance their yoga practice is an honor, and I look forward to guiding your next practice. Be well 🤍🙏🏼

Hi! I’m Hannah, I am a 200 hour certified yoga instructor. I completed my training at yoga by Julia in 2019. I decided to get trained in yoga teaching after 10 years practicing yoga and my father breaking his back (he’s much better.) I can teach a wide range of yoga styles and with specialities in vinyasa, hatha, yin and cardio. I started my yoga journey by wanting to full time between classes in college. I practice yoga as a training tool for ultra races, breath control and meditation practices. Can’t wait for you to join me!

I’m Sheila Knight. I’m a crazy dog lady & a football mom. I started practicing yoga 15 years ago just to add something extra to my workout routine. Yoga has helped me heal my mind and body so much I became a certified Buti instructor. I found Buti, or rather Buti found me in 2017 after my cousin dragged me to a class on Thanksgiving day and I was immediately hooked! Buti has helped me to truly love myself, my body, and to never speak harshly to myself. I look forward to sweating with intention with you and helping you let go of anything that’s holding you back from loving yourself fully.

I stumbled across yoga in college when I signed up for a class as a PE credit. When the class was over, I knew I had to keep practicing! After about 10 years as a student, I took the plunge into teacher training and have since completed two 200 hour trainings focused on different styles and sides of yoga. Outside of yoga, I am a non-diet Dietitian who supports individuals in healing their relationships with food and body image, as well as finding joyful movement. Yoga tools have influenced my nutrition practice, and vice versa. I love supporting people on their journeys to a more harmonious relationship with their bodies. My husband, two cats (Lost Monster and Sadie), and I recently moved from Houston, Texas to New Mexico to live in a custom-built tiny house. I am so excited to have found a studio to practice, teach, and be in community!

I came into yoga from a journey of medical healing and passion for fitness. I love my family and have been working in the veterinary community for over 20 years. After developing a routine to conquer my own diagnosis, I decided to take a leap into helping others and became a yoga instructor in 2018. My journey has lead me to study hot yoga in many varieties from Chair, Box, Shakti, Buti, Yin and much more. I vibrate love and self acceptance and my classes foster self confidence and fun.

My name is Lyndsi Chavez. I have been in the fitness industry for over 15 years now. After having my children I began doing Pilates to help me get back in shape and then joined Main Street Muscle and Fitness Center and soon became a group fitness instructor. It was there that I quickly fell in love with helping others achieve their fitness goals. I have 3 beautiful children (one of them in Heaven) and 2 adorable grandsons. Watching my daughter fight an incurable illness her whole life showed me not to take my health for granted and to treat my body as a “temple”. We only get one and our health is a blessing. I look forward to helping others love their bodies and take care of their “temples” through Pilates.
Testimonials
I’ve always been an active person ever since I was young. In school I was athletic but chose to be a cheerleader from middle school up until my Senior year in high school.
As an adult I played tennis, jogged and did jazzercise.
Ever since Main Street gym opened their doors I have been a member there.
With age and probably not eating that clean I started to gain weight. I figured since I worked out, I could eat whatever I want. Not true! Sure my muscles were toned & I had stamina but I couldn’t lose weight. One day my daughter asked me to join her in a hot yoga class back in 2017. I told her it sounded boring and I hate the heat. I tried it anyway and got hooked. Been doing yoga since 2017 and I was very happy when Surrender Hot Yoga studio opened in Los Lunas. Ever since I’ve been doing yoga I have lost 30 pounds. I feel that it helped with my weight loss, as well as with my patience and back pain.
I can definitely say that yoga has helped my self-esteem, patience, and made me overall a better person. Thank you yoga. Namaste. 🧘🏻♀️❤️
AMAZING! Every class just opens my mind and body up to new levels of stretch and relaxation.
Interesting experience for a first-time yoga tryer! Great instructor!
