Hi Thank you for your comment. Hot yoga is no better hatha or vinyasa for weight loss. Some think that because you sweat a lot due to the high temperature in the room. But just drink some water and you'll get that weight back.
That being said, I personally don't like hot yoga because I think it is an easy way to injure yourself. In high temperatures the joints become very lose and we think we've gained flexibility, then we stress the ligaments and tendons too quickly, sometimes to a degree they are not ready for, and when you return to normal temperature and you cool down you could potentially have some injury. A lot of people love it tho, just practice with caution and awareness of your limits.
