Looking for an alternative, comprehensive work-out, as osteoarthritis and other aliments had begun invading my now 40 year old body: I wandered in to the Kelowna Bikram Yoga studio in early Sept.

After two classes I knew I had found what I was looking for. Now 7 months later, I am committed to styling health. The idea that performing 26 carefully chosen postures within ninety minutes in a “hot room” can actually strengthen and stretch every part and system in my body seemed to good to be true. But I cannot deny its effectiveness. I have improved balance, flexibility,, strength, energy and the list goes on.

Mostly what this classes gives me is hope: hope that I don’t have to accept a general degeneration of my body… that I can do something to slow it down and perhaps heal the effects of stress, wear and tear on my body, the spine in particular. I appreciate the excellent teachers, friendly atmosphere and spotless facilities.
