About Us
Welcome to YogaFX, Home of Original Hot Yoga
YogaFX International Yoga Teacher Training Academy is the Official Hot 26&2 Yoga Teacher Training Headquarters in Bali, with natural-heat hot yoga studios in Seminyak and Canggu. Founded in 2017 by Mr. Ian Terry, E-RYT 500, YogaFX is a Yoga Alliance Certified, Yoga Alliance Registered Yoga School (RYS 200) approved by the American Council on Exercise (ACE), and has certified more than 1,500 yoga teachers from over 80 countries.
We are dedicated to teaching the Original Bikram Hot 26&2 series in its purest form, with certified teacher training that follows the traditional principles of yoga while making them accessible, enjoyable, and transformative for everyone.
Our Mission
Our mission is to empower individuals through the practice and teaching of Hot Yoga. We believe yoga is a powerful tool to overcome Stress, Anxiety, and Depression (SAD), while also improving flexibility, mobility, and overall well-being. We are committed to delivering world-class yoga education that transforms not only the body, but also the mind and soul.
At YogaFX, we believe that the benefits of Hot Yoga extend far beyond the mat. It is a discipline that fosters inner strength, mental clarity, emotional stability, and a deep sense of self-awareness. We aim to create a safe and inclusive environment where every student can discover their full potential. Our mission also includes spreading awareness about mental health, advocating for self-care, and building a global community of compassionate yoga teachers who carry forward this legacy.
