Instructors

Our instructors are trained and certified by world-renowned Yoga Master Bikram Choudhury. Bikram began practicing Hatha Yoga in his native India, at the age of three. At five, he began studying with Bishnu Ghosh (Paramhansa Yogananda's brother) and quickly became a yoga champion. At age eleven he was the youngest contestant ever to win the National India Yoga Competition.

Certification involves 9 weeks of intensive teacher training and over 500 hours of study. While at the Bikram Yoga College, our teachers spend every waking breath studying and practicing Bikram Yoga. Course study includes Asana’s, anatomy, therapeutic applications and health benefits of Yoga, nutrition and philosophy of Yoga Re-certification is required every 3 years. Teachers further their development by attending Bikram’s seminars and posture clinics and by maintaining a personal practice.

Why is certification important?

Bikram Yoga is a very specialized, precise form of yoga. To get the greatest benefit, you need an instructor that is also highly specialized. Bikram Choudhury personally trains and certifies his instructors, ensuring his methods and philosophies are preserved.

My journey into Bikram Yoga started in the Spring of 2001. I instantly knew that Bikram Yoga would be a very useful tool to create balance in my physical body. In the Fall of 2003 my father got sick and I began to understand that my yoga was helping me stay grounded and connected mentally, physically, emotionally and spiritually in order to be there for him in his process of dying.

I continue to grow and learn about myself while strengthening, stretching and challenging my body. I feel authentically ME and it is through my experiences I guide my classes, with the intention of creating a safe space for my students to discover their true authentic Body's, Mind's and Spirit's.

I began my practice of Bikram's Yoga because I wanted to make changes within my life. Not seeing the intention and heart with myself, I decided to take the initiative and transform my future into one with potential. I began teaching in December of 2005, and haven't looked back since.
