I'm completeley addicted. I love it. I thought it sucked at first, but now I crave the heat.

1. I've never tried it but I've been curious
I've been practicing Hatha yoga for almost 10 years now and love it. Lately I've been studying John Friend's Anusara Yoga, which is based on Hatha and love it too. I keep seeing Bikram-style studios popping up all over Seattle, so one of these days I will give it a try!
Namaste,
Lisa

3. bikram is done in a heated room
Bikram yoga is based on hatha yoga. It is a series of 26 poses, always done in the same order, so you could go to any bikram class in the country and not be lost.

The room is heated to body temperature or higher. This helps the body to release toxins and also (they say) prevent muscle injury.
