Bikram Yoga!

I love Bikram Yoga! It's literally one of my favorite forms of yoga and a great way to detox and cleanse your body.  I love to incorporate yoga into my normal workout practice and recommend it to everyone that I train.  To me, its the "Yin" to the "Yang" of aggressive workouts such as running, biking, kickboxing, etc.  It has amazing benefits and is not overly stressful on your body.  I always feel amazing after bikram and have unbelievable enery!  The practice consist of 26 poses, 13 standing and 13 floor and begins and ends with breathing exercise.

 To some, it may seem repetitive, doing the same 26 postures over and over again each class, but it is truly a journey as you become stronger and better with each class, going further and deeper into your pose.  Eventually, you may be able to get here! ...one of my goals!

I'm able to do achieve this pose!

In bikram yoga, The room is heated, on average to 105 degrees. (so expect to go in with a hair "do" and come out with a hair "don't") :) The hot degrees is indicative of the climate in India, where Bikram Yoga originated.  There is nothing like a GOOD Bikram Yoga class after a week of cardio or as part of your regular weekly regiment.  I incorporate it into my workout once a week.

Have you tried it?  If so, what are your thoughts on Bikram Yoga?
