Practice makes perfect, especially at Bikram Yoga Durham, where each class follows the exact sequence of 26 hatha yoga postures designed by Bikram Choudhury. Espousing this mantra, instructors come to class armed with their 500-hour Bikram training certifications. Held in a 105-degree studio regulated by eco-friendly heating and air-purification systems, the courses begin with standing postures and transition into mat poses, a progression that works the entire physique more effectively than performing jumping jacks on a treadmill. Students of all fitness levels can jump into the toasty fray, exercising as the heat detoxifies systems, enhances flexibility, and increases heart rates for a cardio workout.
