Specials & Events
Discover what’s happening at Saltair this season, from guided classes and special events to limited-time offers and ways to experience Nordic wellness differently.
Evening Events: Yo|Sa
Yoga + Sauna | Select Thursdays | 6 - 8 pm | $39 ea
Yo|Sa, Saltair’s blend of yoga + sauna, is a series of extended guided experiences that bring movement, heat, cold immersion and traditional Nordic sauna rituals together in one connected practice.
Each Thursday Evening Event follows its own theme and approach, from energizing yoga flows to gentle, restful practices or a blend of Pilates and yoga. The experience begins with guided movement in the Gathering Dome, followed by a mindful transition to the sauna, where breathwork, meditation, aroma and towel waving bring you into the Nordic experience.
You’ll be guided through heat and cold immersion before returning to the sauna for warmth, stillness and reflection. After the guided portion, continue at your own pace through the pools, saunas and rest spaces with Nordic Free Flow.
Classes are beginner-friendly and open to all levels, with no previous yoga or Pilates experience needed. Explore the individual event descriptions to find the theme that feels right for you.
Rise & Shine Guided Classes
Most Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays & Sundays | 9:30 - 10:45 am | $29 ea
Begin your day with Rise & Shine, Saltair’s collection of guided morning wellness classes, bringing together movement, meditation, breathwork and traditional sauna rituals with the restorative rhythm of hot, cold and rest.
Each class follows its own theme and approach, offering a different way to begin your day:
Yo|Sa (yoga + sauna): Mindful movement and breath paired with the warmth of the sauna, creating space for both movement and stillness.
Meditation: Guided practices that invite you to slow down, settle your attention and reconnect with yourself.
Breathwork: Guided breathing techniques that encourage awareness of your breath, body and how you feel in the moment.
Aufguss: A traditional guided sauna ritual using aroma and towel waving to circulate heat, creating an immersive sensory experience.
Your guide brings the day’s practice together with Saltair’s hot, cold and rest experience. Whether you’re drawn to movement, quiet reflection or the sensory warmth of the sauna, each class offers time to pause and begin your morning with intention.
Classes begin at 9:30 a.m. and last 75 minutes, with 60 minutes of guided practice followed by 15 minutes to continue at your own pace through heat, cold or rest.
*Note: Starting December 1, Rise & Shine classes will be held exclusively in the sauna during the winter months.
Shared Traditions
Two-hour Nordic Free Flow | Ages 14+ with a guardian | $55 adult | $45 youth
Shared Traditions is Saltair’s invitation for youth and their parents or guardians to experience the restorative rhythm of hot, cold and rest together. These dedicated sessions welcome guests ages 14 and older to explore Nordic wellness and make time for connection.
During your two-hour Nordic Free Flow, move at your own pace through the saunas, warm pools, cold immersion and rest spaces. Share the warmth, pause between cycles and discover how time spent slowing down together can become a tradition of its own.
This is a self-guided experience, giving you space to enjoy Saltair together without a structured class. Each minor must be accompanied by their own parent or guardian.
