Bikram Yoga
(Original Hot Yoga)
Pranayama, or opening breathing in a Bikram yoga class.
Every Bikram yoga class is a sequence of the same 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises selected from Hatha Yoga. It has been proven and experienced by millions worldwide that these 26 postures systematically work every part of the body. This yoga builds energy, stamina, and flexibility. It incorporates strength, challenge, gravity, balance, and the tourniquet effect. Bikram yoga helps return the body to its natural balanced state.
The yoga room is intentionally hot (105°F) to create an atmosphere similar to the conditions in India. It is a very safe practice; think of it as a prescription! The series works equally well for beginning and advanced students. You will be encouraged to challenge yourself to improve and maintain your health physically and mentally.
