Bikram Hot Yoga
A systematic sequence of 26 yoga postures and two breathing exercises practiced in a room heated to 105°F (40°C), designed to strengthen, detoxify and restore the body's natural balance.
Beads of sweat roll down your spine as you flow through precise movements in a room heated to 105°F. Bikram Hot Yoga, developed by Bikram Choudhury, is a rigorous series of 26 classical hatha yoga postures and two breathing exercises performed in a specific sequence.
This methodical practice emerged in the 1970s, combining ancient yogic wisdom with modern therapeutic applications. The heated environment helps promote deeper stretching while the carefully ordered sequence works to systematically stimulate every organ, gland, and system of the body.
Athletes, stress-management seekers, and those recovering from injuries often turn to Bikram Yoga for its comprehensive benefits. Practitioners regularly report increased flexibility, improved posture, enhanced mental clarity, and a profound sense of physical renewal.
