    thank you for your reply! I sure appreciate it.
    I can tell when my heart is not happy with how high it’s getting. It starts to pound too hard, or it skips, even with a pacemaker. I think it’s my cardio who told me to not let it get much passed 125ish.
    But the H.Yoga class is a public class. My daughter says they keep the temp. seemingly lower…at 97? I will call before I go to be sure.
    She also said I could leave the room for a minute or two to cool off then go back in? Or, go into ‘corpse pose?’ Um, not sure if the name of that pose sounds too assuring…haha. 🙂
    Thanks for whatever info you give me. I appreciate it.

    I am a 50 year old female with a pacemaker. Was one of the first kids to get one at age 11. I do aerobics, but can’t let my pulse get too high above 125ish. I really want to try hot yoga. I need to lose about 15 pounds, maybe a few more. Advice please? Thanks
