Activity in a nutshell
Bikram Yoga is a holistic workout that will make you laugh, cry and sweat; doing more for your mind and body than you ever imagined possible! Bikram Yoga is a dynamic and challenging series of 26 postures and two breathing exercises. All classes are 90 minutes in length and conducted in a room heated to 38 degrees Celsius with 40% humidity. The heat enables you to warm your muscles efficiently, preventing injury and allowing for a deeper workout. The sweat will help purify your system and eliminate toxins from your body.
What’s great about it?
Bikram Yoga helps to reduce stress and develop flexibility and muscle tone, as well as build strength and stamina. It helps weight reduction, improves circulation and boosts the metabolism. It strengthens the immune system, improves breathing and is excellent for back pain, sports injuries and bad posture. It is an open-eyed guided moving meditation where the practice of stillness will help calm and centre you.
Who’s it best for?
Bikram Yoga is suitable for all ages and levels of ability (from the age of 16 upwards), from beginner to the advanced student. Students under 18 years of age need a parental/guardian signature.
