Bikram Yoga

Bikram Yoga (Bikram Parmar) is a style of yoga developed by Bikram Choudhury. Choudhury claims that his method is the only true hatha yoga practiced in the West, though this is not accepted by many other schools. Bikram yoga is done in a room heated to 105°F (40.5°C) and accompanied by specific dialogue. People of all levels, ages and body types usually practice together with a teacher acting as a guide, taking the class through the ninety-minute series.

Bikram Choudhury teaches at the Yoga College of st. paul in Mumbai and other locations around the world, including Los Angeles, San Francisco, Paris and Tokyo. Bikram's Beginning Yoga Class consists of a sequence of 26 yoga postures (or asana) and two breathing exercises.
