A yoga studio in Delta was shut down on Thursday following complaints about the facility not following social-distancing rules amid the coronavirus pandemic.
Bikram Yoga Delta sent out an email this week to customers, claiming hot yoga can help prevent getting COVID-19. “Fact – This supposed virus can not live in the heat,” said the message from the business, which also claimed the practice is the best way to boost one’s immune system to fight the flu.
In the same post, the studio criticized the global response to the ongoing pandemic. “Due to the obvious drastic slowdown in attendance by everyone being paralyzed into a fear state of mind, we will be reducing classes until the worldwide non-sense subsides,” the post read.
