Our Studio
The Hot Room
2 - 4 Gladstone Street, Battery Point Tasmania, Australia 7004
Set in Salamanca just down from St David’s park, the space has been curated with energy efficiency, the environment & our community at its heart. The studio is small but packs a mighty punch, from entry reception, through to change rooms & showers then through to the practice room itself.
Parking
On Gladstone St there’s 2 hour parking during the week & free parking on w/e’s. Bearing in mind, Saturday is market day & the area down near the studio is blocked off for the market. Bikram classes will be 6am & 6pm during weekdays (at least to start with) & morning & afternoon classes on the w/e, so hopefully not too much of an issue. During the day, best bet is the back of Salamanca Square up to 3 hrs parking until 10pm at night. I plan to have 9:30am & 4:15pm classes too, alternating daily (if that makes sense) & getting a park at those times might mean accessing the Salamanca Square car park.
Our Heating System
Infrared Panels
Stylish & efficient, infrared panels use radiant heat to warm the room creating a comfortable, natural feeling of warmth. Infrared heaters convert almost 100% of the electricity they consume into heat, making them one of the most efficient heating systems.
Instead of directly heating the air in a room, panels heat the objects in the room - walls, ceiling, floor & YOU.
Benefits of Infrared panels for heating:
Reduced energy use
Natural heat
100% net zero carbon heating
Helps prevent mould and condensation
Maintenance free, long lifetime, over 95% recyclable
