At Bikram Yoga Oakville we want your practice to be a pleasant one and at first the heat of the room and the postures can be overwhelming. We are here to help you find a balance within your practice so that you can achieve proper form in your practice. Bikram yoga is a yoga practice not yoga perfect. A benefit of the practice is that as long as you have the correct form you will receive 100% of the benefits, however if you sacrifice from for depth you will also lose the benefits. One thing to keep in mind is that the breathing comes first. In and out through the nose. As long as you have the proper breathing you will be fine. Once a yoga student begins breathing in and out through the mouth that causes the body to go into a fight or flight syndrome. However this can be corrected by becoming aware of the breathing and focusing back to breath in and out through the nose therefore helping to reduce the heart rate and calming the body.
