When Sophia Lian wants to start her yoga exercise classes, she prefers the ambient temperature to be well above 35 C.
After all, her Bikram, or hot yoga, discipline demands that the exercise room is maintained at a temperature of between 38 and 42 C.
And if the outside temperature is hot, it will cost less in heating. Moreover, Lian's students will not have the extreme of temperatures when they enter or leave the studio in the Lido area.
