Sunday: Bikram Yoga
Baby it's cold outside...
cold AND
snowy, only to be followed up by sub-zero temperatures. Here in the
Chicagoland area, the snow is interfering with our
Sunday funday outings. If sleeping in is your ideal way to spend your day, then by all means proceed.
I on the other hand have a few
New Years resolutions to tackle, one of which being to get my body moving. I love to reap the rewards of
exercise, but I'm not the most consistent gym-goer. To kickstart a healthier 2014, I've decided to give my
local Bikram Yoga studio a go.
Have you tried Bikram Yoga yet? I had my first experience in Madrid, Spain and I absolutely loved it, but I'll admit that the 90 minute classes are intense. Bikram yoga consists of the same
26 postures and
two breathing exercises in a room or studio that is heated to approximately
105°F (≈40°C-41°C).
While living in
Madrid, I tried out three different centers:
Bikram Yoga España (on Calle Divino Pastor),
Bikram Yoga Spain Studio (on Calle Maldonado) and
Bikram Yoga Center (on Calle Barquillo).
My favorite was the
Bikram Yoga Center (with Bikram Yoga Spain Studio coming in at a close second place); it's clean, it has a large studio space, lockers, complimentary towel & mat service, various individual showers and a friendly staff.
Before committing to any memberships, I advise signing up for the trial offers.
