Bikram Yoga
Bikram method yoga is an intelligently designed series of 26 postures (asanas) lasting 90 minutes. It is practiced in a hot room (around 37 ?C) to warm your muscles helping to prevent injuries, allowing deeper stretching, and sweating toxins from the skin.
It is performed in a sequence designed so that every posture stretches and strengthens the specific muscles, ligaments and joints needed for the following posture. The Bikram method is cardiovascular and an intense workout suitable for beginners and experienced students. Every muscle group and all five systems of the body are stimulated towards optimal functioning. The end result is an unparalleled feeling of mental and physical well being and relaxation.
