What is Bikram Yoga?
Bikram yoga is the single best form of yoga for the achievement and maintenance of perfect health, a perfect body, and a sharp mind.
It is a very specific 90 minute series of 26 yoga postures and breathing exercises taught in 40 degrees celsius, so that deep penetration can relieve muscle resistance without risking injury. Each pose is a challenge based on personal abilities; each pose addresses a certain area of the body, bestowing specific and powerful health benefits. The class is designed for beginners as well as for those students who have a regular practice. Every class is open to first time students.

What Bikram yoga does for your body
Yoga changes the construction of the body from the inside out. So before you change it, you have to heat it up to soften it, because a warm body is a flexible body. Then you can reshape the body any way you want.
By the end of a Bikram yoga class, you will have worked every muscle, tendon, joint, ligament, internal organ, and gland while systematically moving fresh, oxygenated blood to 100% of the body. These postures work synergistically and cumulatively to put the body back on track and in balance. Bikram yoga builds strength, balance and flexibility by gently stretching and massaging the spine, muscles, tendons, joints, and all internal organs of the body. Bones are strengthened, joints are opened and lubricated, and muscles are strengthened, toned, and made more flexible. Lung capacity is expanded, leading to greater vitality, it also teaches us how to use that oxygen properly – we learn to control the breath through pranayama.
The detoxing part of Bikram Yoga
Bikram yoga flushes away the waste products, the toxins of all the glands and organs of your body. It provides a natural irrigation of the body through the circulatory system, with the help of the respiratory system. It brings nourishments to every cell of your body so that each one can perform its function and keep your body healthy. Bikram Yoga also employs heat to further that cleaning process: When you sweat, impurities are flushed out of the body through the skin.
