Hi there all,

Ever heard of Bikram Yoga?

Pioneered by Bikram Choudhury, Bikram Yoga, also known as Hot Yoga is a series of 26 poses plus two breathing exercises practiced in a room heated to approx 40°C. Classes last 90 minutes. As you can imagine, a vigorous yoga session at this temperature promotes profuse sweating which rids the body of toxins. It also good for the following reasons.

*Weight loss
*Greatly improved muscle tone and strength
*Improved flexibility
*Greater energy levels and feelings of vitality
*An increased sense of wellbeing and connectedness to the environment around them
*Improved digestion
*Less requirement for sleep and/or heavy foods
*A greater awareness of how factors such as sleep, diet and stress can impact on your physical body

I started Bikram Yoga 4 months before moving here to Germany in September last year. In my first 2 months of practising without evening trying I lost 15kg!

I've been here for 5months now and need to get back into exercise. I have found the following Studio http://bikramyoga-nuernberg.de/index.html which has lessons on Thursdays but if we are able to get a group of 5 people together can arrange a class at a time which suits us.

So come on give it a go with me! What have you got to loose? Great way to get fit and meet new people at the same time!

Look forward to hearing from you

No takers? Come on! Give it a go... Only need 3 more people and then we have a group of 5 which can choose our own lesson time.

I await your replies!

ok, depending on where it is I am up for trying it.

But, I used to teach yoga myself, as its a family traditions, and Im a little sceptical on what 40 degrees does except make you lose a lot of body water.

but i reserve judgment until i try it...

Hey there,

Thank you everyone for your replies. I was thinking of a class on Tuesday evenings. How does that suit you? I will double check when the instructor is available for our private lesson.

I will double check the price again but the other day when I attended the Thursday class, the first lesson was 12 euro and the second lesson was for free (2 for 1 introductory special). If you like it you can buy a consession card of 10 classes for 120 euro. http://bikramyoga-nuernberg.de/training.html

Will be in touch soon with more details

Hi

Have the classes started yet as I am very interested in this. I have only done a few yoga sessions before, maily Hatha Yoga. I've been looking for a good yoga class, but not really found something and this sounds ideal.

Hi there everybody,

Thank you for your replies. I finally heard back from the Yoga instructor and lessons are 13 Euro per person, per lesson. I would like to go back to him and see if he would renegotiate the price (usual class times are 12euro) however either way, due to the financial crisis, money is a little tight at the moment. Hopefully things will sort themself out soon and we can arrange a class time

Apologies for any inconvenience.

Usual class times are on Thursday and Friday evenings.
