One of the unique offerings at Yoga at House of Prana is their Aerial classes. These classes are practised in a silk hammock suspended from the ceiling, providing support for body weight and allowing students to experience antigravity poses. Inspired by Iyengar yoga, these classes aim to deepen stretches, relieve joint pressure, spinal compression, and tension.

For those looking for a more traditional yoga practise, the studio offers Bikram Beginners Hot Yoga. This class incorporates 26 hatha yoga therapy postures and 2 breathing exercises specifically designed for inflexible and injured bodies. The heated room facilitates joint movement, muscle elasticity, and detoxification. For experienced individuals, Bikram Silent classes provide a serene and quiet setting with minimal instruction, allowing students to listen to their bodies on a subtle level.

Yin Yoga is another popular class at Yoga at House of Prana. This practise combines traditional Chinese medicine with the Indian science of yoga. During Yin Yoga classes, students engage in floor-based postures with long holds adapted to suit their individual bodies. The focus is on relaxation rather than effort, offering a deep release into the connective tissues and joints, with emphasis on the hips and energetic pathways through the body.
