Bikram Yoga is the hot Yoga. Yoga is practiced in regular room tempature. It just so happens I've taken three yoga (non-hot) classes in the past. Birkram Yoga I loved from the start. Bikram Yoga Harlem on 145th Street was my first choice of studio. My Friend Lynda had mentioned Bikram along time ago while getting changed in the dressing room for Sabar at the Harlem Y on Saturday (don't ask, no more Sabar at the Harlem Y). I began to visit the Bikram Yoga web site every now and then. The decision to go to the one on 1-4-5 was Lynda's referral. The price and travel works for me. Since I was going to Africa I chose to wait until my return back to the states. Upon my arrival I tried the introductory offer of Unlimited classes for one week for $20. I had already made up my mind to do the 30 day challenged before I got through the introductory week. Loved it! Although I take African dance and am in a dance company I need to stretched with warm muscles on a regular basis. Bikram does that and more. From time to time I do doubles, two classes back to back. I say that not to brag but to encourage doubles if you feel up to it. After the first class my muscles and body were warm enough to allow me to stretch deeper and breath more consciously and with a purpose other than just breathing.

Namaste ("I bow (reverentially) to you"). I pronounced it and it sounds like "na-ma-stay", shows respect and is usually express from the instructor to the students in closing out the class.
