Director, Jonathan Burbank
"Being a part of Bikram yoga
is my dream come true. I have always wanted to have a profession that has
a positive effect on society. Most of all, I enjoy working with people
everyday enabling them to take small steps towards better health.
Bikram Yoga has completely
changed my life. Working as a carpenter in my early teens, I developed
major back and shoulder tension. After a few yoga classes I felt
completely relieved of pain ailing me for years. I immediately fell in
love with yoga and decided to attend Bikram's school in Los Angeles. Here,
Bikram enabled me to fully understand the Yoga Postures. In 1999, I became
a certified instructor in Bikram's Basic Yoga Series.
Before I knew it I was teaching
at Bikram Yoga in Boston. I continue to enjoy working with some of
the most wonderful people in Boston. Together we have created an environment
that is comfortable yet challenging. People of all ages, shapes and sizes
come everyday to try the Yoga. The connections and progress I make
with my students constantly inspires me."
