FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Our mats are red light therapy pads. Each LED emits two wavelengths: 660nm visible red light and 850nm near-infrared light. Together, these wavelengths support cellular function and recovery The room itself is not heated. You'll feel a soft warmth from the mat where your body touches it, but this is light therapy, not heat therapy. Most members notice better recovery, calmer nervous system response, and gradual skin and sleep improvements over several weeks of consistent practice.

Both, actually though the names confuse people. Our mats use two wavelengths of light simultaneously: 660nm visible red light (the reason the mat glows red) and 850nm near-infrared light (invisible, penetrates deeper). Both are forms of photobiomodulation — light therapy that supports cellular function. It's NOT the same as an infrared sauna. Infrared saunas use far-infrared wavelengths to produce heat. Our mats produce gentle warmth from the LEDs, but the goal isn't sweat — it's cellular recovery while you practice. We call our classes "Red Light" because that's what most members recognize, and it's what you see when you walk in.

We offer four formats, all 45 minutes and capped at 10 students: Red Light Pilates — classical mat Pilates on our clinical-grade red light therapy mats. Cellular recovery happens during class. Mat Pilates — the same beautiful practice on a standard mat. No red light. Identical class structure. Red Light Yoga — flow-based yoga on our red light therapy mats. Strength, flexibility, and breath connection — with a layer of cellular recovery built in. Yoga — flow yoga on a standard mat. Welcoming for all levels.

Start with Mat Pilates or Yoga — the standard mat versions. They give you space to learn the movements and breath patterns first. Once the practice feels familiar, the Red Light versions add a cellular recovery layer that members feel most after class — in how they sleep, recover, and feel the next day. If you're not sure where to begin, the front desk will help you choose.

Form-fitting layers that move with your body. Avoid loose tops, they get in the way during floor work and inversions. Since the room itself isn't heated, dress for a normal-temperature studio. The red light therapy mat will provide gentle warmth during floor work, you don't need to overdress for it.
