‘It’s never too late, it’s never too bad, you’re never too old, you’re never too sick to start from scratch once again.’ Bikram Choudhury

Bikram yoga began when Bikram, a former yoga champion, made a full recovery from a crippling accident thanks to yoga, heat and his guru, Bishnu Ghosh. His guru then sent Bikram to Bombay to heal the sick with yoga. Finding that he did not have enough time to help everybody individually, Bikram began to develop an accessible sequence of postures that everyone could follow and benefit from. Today, every class follows the same sequence of 26 postures and exercises in a studio heated to 100 degrees F.

This reader-friendly guide studies each of the 26 movements in detail, showing and describing the ‘ideal’ position as well as what the beginner is more likely to be able to achieve initially and the problems they are likely to encounter. Each move is also accompanied by details of its specific health benefit and a student’s personal experience of the posture.
