Why practice Bikram Yoga:

After going through breast cancer I was left deeply depressed. I started practicing Bikram Yoga as a last resort to try to deal with it. Bikram Yoga gave me back my life. After quite a short time I was feeling better and happier. And in a few months, I was completely out of the depression. It saved my mind, my body, my spirit, and my whole life.

Also, I was left with a lymphodema on my left arm, even if the doctors were against exposing lymphodema to the heat, I took a chance I kept practicing as I believed and trusted Bikram Yoga would do no harm at all. I could notice that when I was practicing my arm improved tremendously.

Bikram Yoga was and still is the answer to all my needs, giving me a more clear and focused mind and a strong and healthy body. Helping connect the two in perfect harmony.

Bikram Yoga is the key of my life. The more I practice the more I know myself.

I went for training in Spring 2013. I teach because I believe that Bikram Yoga can help anybody so I want to reach and touch as many people’s lives as I can. Bikram Yoga works on so many levels physically, psychologically, biochemically just to name the obvious ones. It’s so profound I don’t think a lifetime of practice can explore the whole range of benefits. And I’d like for everybody to have that chance to try and transform their lives.
