Bikram Yoga White Rock - Beginners

 

Bikram’s Beginning Yoga class is for everyone, regardless of age or fitness level.

Feeling nervous, scared, or a little intimidated by the demands of Bikram Yoga? No problem! Even certified Bikram teachers started their journey with jitters. Bikram designed this class for beginners, so with a little practice, you will soon feel right at home.

Preparation

  • Drink plenty of water throughout the day of your class
  • Try not to eat for two to three hours before class
  • Bring a big bottle of water (available for sale at the studio in case you forget)
  • Bring a mat and two towels (also available for sale or rental)
  • And last but not least, bring a positive attitude, be prepared to sweat and have a good time!

Please Note:

  • If it’s your first visit to the studio, please arrive 20 minutes before class to complete your registration.
  • Try your best to stay in class for the whole 90 minutes.
  • Feeling dizzy, nauseous or light-headed is normal for beginners.
  • Never be afraid to sit down if you feel the need.
  • Don’t feel self-conscious; other students are deeply focused on their own practice and not yours.
  • Try to take your second class within 24 hours, although you may experience discomfort such as muscle aches.
  • Drink plenty of water after class.

Outfit:

  • Wear light and fitted clothes – we need to see your knees!
  • Sport bra, shorts or tankini recommended for the ladies.
  • Running shorts, biker shorts, or Speedos (for the more adventurous!) are recommended for men.
  • Avoid long sweat pants and heavy t-shirts (our room is 40ºC hot!)
