We love beginners. Our beautiful space is right next to Winnemac Park. Be Yoga offers a fun 26-posture hot hatha yoga series that works the entire body from inside out. Suitable for all ages and skill levels, this 90-minute class is designed to systematically move fresh oxygenated blood to every cell in the entire body, as well as work the entire spine through which the entire nervous system operates, thereby restoring all systems to their natural working order. If you have a healthy spine, you have a healthy life; all systems can then work the way they were intended to. Contact us today to get started! All levels, bodies are welcome. If you have questions about your injuries, please email Cat at info@hotyogachicago.com

This Intermediate Yoga Practice Intensive is for students who feel steady in a beginner practice and are curious to go deeper—physically, mentally, and energetically. We’ll build strength, mobility, and confidence.

Expect to be challenged, supported, and invited to listen closely to your body as you expand what you thought was possible. This is a space to experiment, ask questions, and let your practice evolve—without rushing the process. Come see where your practice can lead!

Dear students,

It has been such a fantastic year together. We are so happy to have been part of your lives and watch you make positive changes for yourselves little by little.

Here is a new year’s wish for you:

May you experience deep peace and joy in the year ahead. May you enjoy good health, harmony and abundance. May your life be filled with loving-kindness and may you share it with all those you meet.

We can’t wait to see what comes next and hope to be in your lives for many years to come. If it has been a while since we have seen you, we wish you the same. It’s never too late to begin. It’s never too late to start over. Any effort you make, we see and appreciate.

Sending you and yours our warmest wishes from the pretty blue room that is bigger on the inside than it is on the outside.

Love,

Cat (she/her/hers)

✨ Thank you for joining us for a very special Cacao Ceremony where we connected with our inner child ✨

It was a beautiful way to release any dense energy tha no longer serves us to make room for the truest and most loving nature of who we are. It was fun to connect again to the playfulness and joy of feeling like a child.

It was a little magic on a cold, dark night where we shared in community in harmony together. I am grateful.

THANK YOU
for the most wonderful year
And for our life together….

We have had a powerful year, full of creativity, major community support and strength and LOVE.

We are so grateful to be doing what we love with our students.

To help people work on total freedom of movement from pain, and to be with those being open to trying has been our greatest gift. The first thing to change in people is their hearts… they begin to soften a little… be a little more open to joy.

Some highlights of the year:
🦋Our yoga retreat to Mexico, watching whales from the beach
🦋Moving into our beautiful new yoga space
🦋Two teacher trainings
🦋A few visits from our teacher, Mary
🦋Many sunny days in the park
🦋Many days with you

We are wishing you all a fantastic 2026! It will be beautiful!
