BIKRAM YOGA is for all shapes, all sizes, all ages……EVERYBODY!!!!

BIKRAM YOGA is THE YOGA for EVERYBODY. A day doesn’t go by that I don’t think about the amazing yoga discipline that BIKRAM CHOUDHURY brought to our country back in the 70’s!!!! Bikram’s guru, BISHNU GOSH, whom Bikram misses to this day and continuously reflects back upon fondly, once said : “It’s never too late, it’s never too bad, and you’re never too old or too sick to start from scratch once again” !!!!!

OUR BODIES KNOW HOW TO HEAL THEMSELVES!!

WHY NOT ACCELERATE THAT HEALING WITH BIKRAM YOGA ??????

JUST today, I along with my fellow yogis/yoginis were reflecting upon the ailments that brought us to BIKRAM YOGA for the first time. We wished we had known about it earlier in life, BUT , IT’S NEVER TOO LATE TO START THE MOST AMAZING HEALTH PROGRAM OF YOUR LIFE:

BIKRAM YOGA. WHY??? BECAUSE IT WORKS!!!

WHY THE HEAT ??? Besides what we already know about the heat warming the muscles to make them more pliable for stretching, the heat has two more AMAZING benefits. IT STRENGTHENS OUR CARDIOVASCULAR SYSTEM and ACCELERATES ALL OF THE OTHER MEDICAL BENEFITS reaped from this amazing series of postures in a specific, strategic order!!

All of us in our discussion today stated that it really changed our lives and on so many levels!!! (If you ever wonder what we all sit around and talk about before and after class in our intimate surroundings this is it: BIKRAM YOGA!!)

Those of us who practice regularly understand that this form of HATHA YOGA truly heals/repairs our bodies from the inside out, bones to our skin at a cellular molecular level!! WE LOOOOOVE the way our bodies look physically with our consistent Bikram practice, but it’s the internal benefits that keep our bodies in perfect working order, AND keep us coming back for more!!! ADDITIONALLY…….. just like BIKRAM WILL NEVER FORGET HIS BELOVED GURU, a true Bikramite will NEVER FORGET their first Bikram Yoga teacher!!

For me it was the very controversial, Damon Abraham. Damon along with his wife, Denise, were the original owners of Bikram Yoga Palm Desert. You could love him or loathe him but the truth is he is a very gifted Bikram Yoga instructor, and when he put his mind to it he could guide you through his class with such an amazing balance of discipline, humor, and education that one couldn’t help but fall in love with this yoga over and over again!!

Today, as the six month mark of my ownership is quickly approaching I fondly reminisce about my first Bikram Yoga Class (Almost 10 years ago), my first Bikram Yoga teacher, Damon Abraham , my most influential teacher, Denise Abraham, and mostly , BIKRAM CHOUDHURY HIMSELF FOR BRINGING THIS INCREDIBLE PRACTICE FROM INDIA TO OUR COUNTRY OVER 40 YEARS AGO!!! FROM ME TO ALL OF YOU, A VERY HEART FELT: THANK YOU!!!!

NAMASTE`
