As a disabled veteran, Dana knows first hand just how much yoga helps the mind, body and spirit. She has become an expert in the practice of hot yoga, a form growing in popularity, which promotes a greater physical cleansing during the sessions. Dana is proud to be back home in Bakersfield and working on her new yoga studio, which has its Grand Opening this weekend. This Saturday Warrior 1 Yoga will celebrate its Grand Opening with fun, food and discounts.

First timers who buy a single class will get a second one for free. Plus, another unique Bakersfield business, Rutz Acai and Cafe Truck, will be there all day on Saturday the 14th. Just as Warrior 1 Yoga is the only hot yoga studio in Bakersfield, Rutz Acai and Cafe Truck is the only Acai place in town.

Giving back to the community is important to Dana. Every Sunday Warrior 1 Yoga Studio will be offering one free class to disabled veterans courtesy of the Wounded Heroes Fund of Bakersfield. The studio donates to numerous charities, including McDonald's breast cancer fund.

Warrior 1 focuses on hot yoga. This is yoga done in a heated and humid room, much the same way yoga has been practiced in India for centuries. Some practitioners swear by hot yoga, claiming that the technique promotes an enhanced purge of toxins.

Disabled Veteran Brings Her Yoga Expertise to Bakersfield with a new, one of a kind, pure hot yoga Studio!

Bakersfield, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/03/2015 -- Warrior 1 Yoga® Studio in Bakersfield, CA will be launching on February 6th with a soft opening. The studio will be the first in the Bakersfield community to offer Pure HOT YOGA. Founder Dana Healey is a hometown girl who wants to bring her deep love of health and fitness back to her community after years of working abroad and traveling the world. Dana brings home her experience practicing and teaching yoga, along with her vast experience in the fitness field as a "TRX" and HITT trainer. She studied Hot Yoga in Thailand where she was certified as an instructor, and has focused her studio toward the trending practice of HOT YOGA.

She taught yoga to U.S soldiers, State Department personnel and US Contractors in Iraq while working as a government contractor for the now infamous Blackwater for over 9 years.

Real hot yoga is not just raising the temperature in the room to make you sweat, as in most yoga studios. Warrior 1 Yoga® uses infrared spa quality heating. During the bodies natural cooling process while practicing yoga you will sweat out of toxins, such as sodium, alcohol, cholesterol, nicotine, and possibly carcinogenic heavy metals. The overall benefit is the experience of practicing a beautiful art while also getting a total body workout and cleansing.

Spa quality Infrared heating penetrates the skin 1 - 1 1/2 inches deeper than normal heating. This heat reaches deeper into the muscle tissues and internal organs than with radiant heat.

Warrior 1 Yoga® Studio is located at:

1006 Calloway Dr Suite A

Both special offers end February 9th.

The studio will be open Monday through Saturday, and Warrior 1 welcomes every level of yoga student from beginner through advanced.

The studio will be providing access to disabled veterans suffering from PTSD with an instructor specially trained in to teach specific hot yoga techniques known to ease PTSD symptoms.

Dana will be offering a wide variety of yoga classes at Warrior 1 Yoga. On the yoga studio's schedule are classes in Hot Ashtanga, Hot Vinyasa, Hot Power Yoga, Warm Beginner Yoga, and Hot Absolute / Hot Birkram style yoga. Weekday lunch hours will see a half-hour power yoga class offered at the studio. Women's self-defense classes are in the works as well.

Retail sold include Jala Clothing, Psylo, IMPAR, Flying tomatoes, Mandukah, Gaiam, and soon Glyder and Queen of Hearts apparel.

Says Dana about how yoga changed her life and how she has used it to help soldiers and security contractors in Iraq, "Yoga empowers people by teaching them to let go of stress. It's a workout, which totally detoxifies, challenging the physical body, and changing one's awareness, and mindfulness. Its most important benefits are in preventing injury, increasing vitality and creating a life rich in energy."
