This Yoga Class is All you Need

I took my 1st Bikram yoga class in Ft Lauderdale Florida in 1998. I hadn’t really worked out in about 8 years and I was eager to get back into shape. I had always been in good health thanks to dance and running throughout my life and I gave it all up when I was 18 because quite frankly, I was sick of it. I needed a break. 

Well my break was over and that was evident during my first Bikram yoga class. My heart was racing, I was sweating profusely and I was working harder then I had in a very long time. I knew this was exactly what I needed.

After class I was trying to decide how often I should be coming to class  with the other workouts I was interested in and the instructor told me, “Well, you can do whatever you want, but if you don’t feel like doing anything else, this class is all you’ll need. Just do it 5 days a week for 2 months and you will change your life”. And that, is exactly what I did.

20 years later, I am running my 2nd and 3rd yoga studio, I am in the best shape mentally, physically, and spiritually that I have ever been in, and I am extremely content with the lifestyle this yoga has provided me. I firmly believe in this practice. The therapeutic healing benefits are worth every minute, every dollar and every drop of sweat. 

Give it a try. You’ll see.
