What to Expect

Getting Started
In order to start practicing yoga you do not have to be flexible.  All that is needed is a good attitude and willingness to try your best.  These qualities will enable you to reap 100% of the benefits yoga can offer.  As Bikram says, “No matter how old or sick or out of shape you are, you can still stretch and have a new beginning with yoga.  It’s never too late.” 

What to Bring and What to Expect

Classes are designed for all levels, from beginner to advanced.  If you have never taken a yoga class before you will work at your own pace with the guidance of your instructor.
Yoga mats, towels and bottled water are available for a minimal price at the studio.  If you prefer you may bring your own.
The room will be hot and you will sweat so it is advisable to wear lightweight clothes that are snug and breathable.  Most men choose to wear bathing suits or shorts and women are usually comfortable in shorts, tank tops, sports bras, or bathing suits.
Please arrive at the studio at least 15 minutes prior to class time.  This will give you ample time to check in, change your clothes and meet your instructor.
It is best to practice yoga on an empty stomach, so we advise that you not eat for at least 2 hours before class begins.  It is, however, important to be properly hydrated so drink plenty of water before class.
The studio has showers and changing rooms for your convenience.
