Every instructor at Bikram Yoga in the City is a certified Bikram Yoga instructor. This means that they have completed an intensive nine-week training session requiring over 500 hours of study. All instructors are certified by Bikram Choudhury and are schooled in anatomy and physiology. Each instructor is able to draw on resources from Bikram’s training center. This includes special seminars, posture clinics, guest instructors and answers to questions that may arise in a particular practitioner’s Bikram Yoga practice.

I took my first Bikram Yoga class on the suggestion of a friend.  Within a few weeks of practice, I began noticing an overall improvement in my emotional and psychological state — suddenly, everything in my life seemed to be coming together. I became an instructor to pass on these benefits to others. I really enjoy watching my classes improve, not just their level of physical fitness but also the improvements in their mental health.
