About Bikram Hot Yoga

What is Bikram Hot Yoga?

Bikram Hot Yoga is a powerful and transformative yoga practice developed by Bikram Choudhury. It follows a fixed sequence of 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises, performed in a heated room of around 40°C (105°F). This sequence is designed to systematically work every part of your body—from the inside out—improving strength, flexibility, balance, and mental focus.

Each class lasts 90 minutes and is suitable for beginners and advanced students alike. The repetition and discipline in every session allow students to track their progress and build a solid foundation in their practice.

The History of Bikram Yoga

Bikram Yoga was born from the lineage of Hatha Yoga. Bikram Choudhury, a disciple of Bishnu Ghosh (brother of Paramahansa Yogananda), systematized the practice in the 1970s in the United States. He developed the 26&2 sequence to make yoga accessible to everyone, regardless of age or physical ability.

The heated environment was introduced to:

  • Mimic the climate of India

  • Help the body stretch safely

  • Promote detoxification through sweating

Over the years, Bikram Yoga has spread worldwide and become one of the most practiced forms of hot yoga.

What Are the Benefits?

Bikram Hot Yoga offers a wide range of physical, mental, and emotional benefits:

  • Increases flexibility and strength

  • Enhances circulation and detoxification

  • Supports weight loss and toning

  • Improves posture and spine health

  • Boosts mental clarity and discipline

  • Reduces stress, anxiety, and depression

Through consistent practice, many students report a complete lifestyle transformation—feeling more energized, centered, and empowered.

What Makes Bikram Yoga Unique?

Unlike other yoga styles that may vary each class, Bikram Yoga uses the same sequence every time, allowing you to go deeper into the poses and notice real progress. The heated room intensifies the effects, encouraging focus, endurance, and full-body activation.

This method is:

  • Structured and beginner-friendly

  • Physiologically complete (bones, muscles, organs)

  • Mentally challenging and rewarding

  • Tested by time and practiced worldwide

YogaFX was created so aspiring hot yoga teachers could gain world-class certification without spending $10,000 or sacrificing 9 weeks of their life. We combined authentic Hot 26&2 with Yoga Alliance accreditation, offering a hybrid training that’s accessible, affordable, and globally recognised.
