Bikram Yoga Townsville

Bikram Yoga is a holistic workout that will make you laugh, cry and sweat; doing more for your mind and body than you ever imagined possible!

Bikram Yoga is a dynamic & challenging series of 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises suitable for all ages* and levels of ability, from beginner to the advanced student. All classes are 90 minutes in length and conducted in a heated room.

Bikram Yoga helps to reduce stress, develop flexibility, muscle tone as well as build strength and stamina. It helps weight reduction, improves circulation and boosts the metabolism. It strengthens the immune system, improves breathing and is excellent for back pain, sports injuries and bad posture. It is an open eyed guided moving meditation where the practice of stillness will help calm and centre you, bringing together body and mind by purifying the mental, emotional and physical bodies.

We like it hot! All classes are conducted in room which is heated to 38 degrees Celsius with 40% humidity. Most asana (postures) are performed twice and held for a prescribed length of time. The heat enables you to warm your muscles efficiently, preventing injury and allowing for a deeper workout. The sweat will help purify your system and eliminate toxins from your body. We work through the 26 postures systematically, so each posture can stretch and strengthen the muscles, ligaments and joints required for the next posture. The postures performed in the prescribed order helps to restore all body systems to a healthy working order.

Each time you come to class you will always get the same 26 postures in the same sequence. It's great! You always know what you are going to get. This allows you, the student to realise it is you that changes from day-to-day. Some days you feel great, others not so much. Yoga will help you to stay centred and calm no matter what type of day you may be having. With a regular, consistent practice you learn to build faith in yourself and your own abilities; increasing your will power, determination, concentration, patience, self-discipline and Self-realisation.

Our teachers are certified Bikram Yoga Teachers who are passionate about the yoga. They teach from the heart and bring their own uniqueness, life experience, compassion and understanding to their classes. They understand that we are all here to have a human experience and respect that everyone's journey to Self-realisation is different.
