Hot Yoga · Vancouver, BC
Ronnie Khaira — RYT-200, Yoga Alliance
“When breath connects with movement, a pose doesn’t get easier — it gets possible.”
Breath-led flow, deep stretch, and strength in a far-infrared heated room (~38°C) at Oxygen Yoga & Fitness Sunset. One hour to leave everything outside the room — and walk out grounded, calm, and ready for your day.
About Ronnie
Yoga calmed my own anxiety. Learning to breathe through the hard moments — on the mat and off it — made me calmer and clearer. It’s why I start my own day with breathwork and practice, and why I teach the way I do.
In my classes, breath comes first. Most of us hold our breath when something feels tough, so I cue inhale and exhale constantly — especially in the hard poses. When the breath connects, you stay present. You stop bracing, and you find out what you can actually do.
My goal for every class is simple: for one hour, everyone who comes to my classes stops thinking about everything waiting outside the room — and leaves grounded, calm, and ready for their day.
Expect precise cueing, smooth transitions, and programming that builds week to week — whether that’s a flowing Freedom Flow, a quiet deep stretch, or a strength class that works you hard and breathes with you the whole way through.
This is how we start — and how we get through the hard parts. Inhale for 4, exhale slowly for 6. Press start when you’re ready.
Classes
Flow, stretch, strength, and sweat — all breath-led, all levels welcome, with modifications offered throughout.
Hatha and Vinyasa flow that links breath to movement from the first sun salutation to savasana. Build heat, mobility, and focus as sequences unfold smoothly — no abrupt jumps, just one breath leading to the next pose.
Entirely on the mat, with long holds of 2–5 minutes and blocks for support. Opens with detailed breathwork to settle the nervous system, then works across the whole body — hips, hamstrings, spine, shoulders, and neck.
Glutes, legs, and core only — dumbbell-based, slow and deliberate. Compound moves, standing block work, and a core finish that changes every week so your body never just goes through the motions.
Fast & Furious and HIIT formats built in a positional flow — standing, side-facing, kneeling, then on the back — with dumbbells throughout and cardio placed so your head changes level only once. No burpees in the heat.
Yoga flow with dedicated core work woven in — finishing with a rotating mat burnout and an isometric hold at the very end, when you’ve earned it.
I teach 3–5 classes a week at Oxygen Yoga Sunset and sub frequently across nearly all studio formats — so you’ll often find me on the schedule beyond Thursdays too.
Every class is hot. Oxygen Yoga Sunset uses a far-infrared heated room at around 38°C. Bring water, take breaks whenever you need them, and breathe — I’ll cue it the whole way through.

Testimonials
“Love your HIIT workouts! I'm using grey weights now because of you. You really make us stronger. Before, I would always hurt my arms, but whenever you remind us to use our core strength, everything feels easier and lighter.”
“Daya and I attended the Freedom Flow. It was excellent. Lots of balancing poses, lots of movement… absolutely wonderful.”
“I was very sore from your Abs and Butt class on Thursday night, especially my glutes! Couldn't get up Friday morning lol”
“I loved both classes… challenging but fun. Ronnie was very motivating about balancing — I feel energized.”
“I finally got to try your class today. It was really hard but lots of fun, and I really enjoyed it. You are a really good teacher.”
“My beautiful Ronnie bitia — excellent yoga instructor”
My Private Practice · Vancouver
Alongside my studio classes, I’m building my own private practice — personalized one-on-one yoga sessions in Vancouver, built entirely around you.
A group class moves at the room’s pace. A private session moves at yours: we work on what you want to work on, at the level you’re at today, with my full attention on your breath, alignment, and progress — and the same breath-led cueing I bring to every class.
Private clients work with me to deepen their practice, build strength safely, improve flexibility and mobility, or simply have a dedicated hour that’s theirs. Sessions are tailored each time — no two are the same, because no two bodies or goals are the same.
Introductory rates while I build my private practice.
For studios & resorts: private one-on-one coaching is part of the full range I offer, alongside group flow, deep stretch, strength, and HIIT.
Hatha / Vinyasa sequences built for your level and goals — technique, transitions, and poses you want to master, broken down step by step.
A quieter one-on-one hour: long holds, whole-body release, and guided breathwork to calm the nervous system.
Dumbbell and bodyweight strength woven into your practice — glutes, legs, and core, programmed progressively for you.
Perfect if you’re newer to yoga or returning to it: foundations, alignment, modifications, and core stability, at your pace.
