The Beautiful Pain of Bikram Yoga


I just had my very first bikram yoga class at Bikram Yoga Avondale (BYA) and I think that they may have been trying to kill me. I came across their awesome Living Social deal about a month ago for 3 months of unlimited yoga classes and I am only now finding the courage to stick these thighs into some skin tight shorts and walk out the front door of my house (plus the added motivation of my Living Social voucher about to expire). For starters, the room felt like it was 1000 degrees, my legs shook, my arches ached, my back hurt, I kept tipping over,  my boobs got in the way,  my nose wouldn't touch my knee and sweat was pouring out of my body by the gallon...BUT I loved all 5400 seconds of it. After the class my skin looked amazing and I felt calm and relaxed. I'm still not sure if they were trying to kill me but...see ya tomorrow BYA, you definitely made the Hit List!

  1. Hot yoga is my fave!! I really want to get back into it. I have no balance, I sweat and stink like a man, and I know none of the moves so spend 1/2 the time trying to copy what my neighbor does. But I love it!!!
