I've been practicing Bikram Yoga since 2002, and absolutely love it. In so many ways it has changed my life, all for the better. It has brought me great peace of mind, and it has definitely taught me patience, perseverence, and the importance of an optimistic attitude.
In Bikram Yoga, I think in order to really progress, you have to learn to connect to your inner strength and become your own best friend. Last February I broke my ankle in two places and my tibia, and 6 weeks after the accident, I hobbled into the hot room with my removable cast, and practiced the series at the back of the class. My recovery was unbelievable, and I attribute my current health and vitality to my regular classes.
As an athlete and a health counsellor, I recommend this as a life-long practice over everything else for it's ability to regenerate the body and keep you healthy both mentally and physically. |

I was introduced to Bikram Yoga in 1989 by a classmate of mine. It was a lot of fun and I loved the heat. I was a teenager back then and loved how it was a different kind of workout. It wasn't until 1996, when I moved to Los Angeles, that I took my first class with Bikram himself. This time I was drawn, once again to the great work out, yes, but also to it's benefits in dealing with panic attacks. In 2003 I decided to go to teacher training.
Bikram yoga, at that point had helped me overcome anxiety, healed me from a sports fall, and two serious car accidents. It helped my focus, confidence, and well being. Ultimately, this yoga helped me be me.When I teach I know that I am helping others achieve the kind of peace and love that I feel when I practice.
My other vocation is graduate student -- working towards my M.F.A in theater, at the Institute for Advanced Theater Training at Harvard University. |

My journey with Bikram’s Yoga began a year ago, in March, 07, as I stumbled across the Bikram Yoga Boston studio, and without any anticipation of what was to come, I took my first class.
After a few classes, I knew this type of Yoga had exactly what I needed: a challenging practice, welcoming staff, and a community that all share one common interest and goal; to sweat, work extremely hard to become the healthy human beings that we deserve to be. Not only did I gain physical and emotional strength, but my entire perception changed and I realized that any limitations I created for myself do not actually exist at all.
Two months later I signed up for teacher training. This enhanced my practiced and proved to me that the yoga works. We are capable of anything; we just don’t know it yet. Bikram’s Yoga provides us with the opportunity to get outside your mind and into your body, gaining a deeper sense of self. I am grateful and proud to a part of this amazing process. |
