ACCESSIBLE TO ALL

THE YOGA

Bikram Yoga is a therapeutic system of healing, created by a set sequence of postures and breathing exercises that is practised in a heated room.

Bikram Yoga is a beginner-level yoga class accessible to anyone and everyone. Regardless of experience level, age, shape, size and physical capacity, Bikram Yoga is available to everybody.   As a beginner, a person with chronic illness or injury, limited mobility or with a lengthy experience of yoga practice - everyone is capable and everyone is welcome! 

As a first timer, it can take a few classes to get used to the sequence and the conditions. We recommend taking as many classes as possible when you first begin your practise to witness the most effective and extensive results.

Your first class is your first step in taking responsibility for your own healing process. Taking responsibility for your own health is empowering.

THE BENEFITS

OF BIKRAM YOGA

You will begin to receive and notice the benefits of a Bikram Yoga class after your first session.  After just one class you will feel re-invigorated, your body and mind will thank you.  Developing a consistent Bikram Yoga practice will result in benefits such as:

  • Increased flexibility

  • Reshaping your body

  • Increased balance and coordination

  • Toning, lengthening and strengthening muscles

  • Relief from pain

  • Reducing weight and the effects of stress

  • Raising energy levels

  • Connection to the mental attributes of faith, self control, determination, concentration and patience

  • Improved mind-body connection for greater physical wellbeing, mental clarity and emotional balance

The benefits are endless, because they are unique to you!

  • The body is naturally self-regulating and self-healing.  It just needs to be boosted when it is out of balance.

    Bikram yoga provides this boost by gently stretching, squeezing, and massaging the internal organs, spine, muscles, tendons and joints.    

    It flushes out the cardiovascular system, stimulates the endocrine, nervous, and reproductive systems, and toxins are eliminated.

    The central nervous system is both energised and soothed, the lymphatic system flushed out, making the immune system stronger.

BEGINNERS

Bikram Yoga beginners classes are taught using a specific method.  Listen very closely to your teacher and they will teach you how to do each posture in detail, correctly.  It is not important that you do or can't do a posture.  It is important that you TRY.   Just by trying the posture the best you can - you will receive all the benefits you need.

It can take a few classes to get used to the sequence, so we recommend you practice as many classes as possible in your first month to see maximum benefits.  In a short space of time, you will begin to heal your aches and pains, and you’ll have more energy. 

You'll love the benefits of Bikram Yoga as you create a healthier you. All classes at Tranquil Point are beginner classes and are taught by a certified Bikram Yoga teacher.

SOME ANSWERS

  • Just show up.

  • Bikram Yoga is a series of 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises done in a specific order with specific instructions, designed for our cultural problems of stress, overeating, poor posture, and aggressive lifestyles. This exact technique and series of fixed poses brings better health to anyone willing to try it.

  • Some immediate benefits of Bikram Yoga:
    Reduce stress
    Improve quality of sleep
    Build strength and endurance
    Increase flexibility and muscle tone
    Alleviate joint pain
    Improve your posture
    Improve circulation
    Reduces risk of injuries
    Increases energy level, balance, focus, and coordination.

  • Each class is 90 minutes in duration and is practised in a heated room.

    The room is heated for several reasons:
    To increase your heart rate
    To reduce your blood pressure
    To safely increase your flexibility
    To aid the body in releasing toxins
    To thin the blood to clear out the cardiovascular system
    To improve your strength by putting muscle tissue in optimal state of change
    To reorganize lipids (fats) in the muscular structure
    To eliminate trauma and injury to the body

    If the heat causes extreme discomfort for you, be assured that you can change that with 4 consecutive classes. This effort will increase your tolerance for the heat.

  • The first trimester is a vital time for the developing fetus and you may be tired and/or feeling ill. Therefore, it is best to wait until after your 12th week before starting the yoga. Postures are modified for pregnancy but done in the beginners class.

  • NO. This is a beginners series created for people with chronic pain and disease. Anyone can try it no matter what shape they are in.

    Remember, you will improve from the very first class. This yoga will help your body reach optimal health.

  • This is the most common misconception that prevents people from coming to a yoga class. You don’t need to be flexible to do yoga. Bring your muscles to help you gain flexibility. Come to class and “try the right way” to begin to do each posture and you will get 100% benefit. We help you develop your strength and then show you how to use that to get more flexibility.

  • This class is challenging for all levels and you never outgrow it. You will be amazed at the cardiovascular effect you get from holding still in postures. Your body continually seeks to normalise in yoga and so if you are overweight you will lose weight. Consistency is key. With persistence, patience and dedication your body will come into balance.

  • People of any age and condition can try this yoga. It reduces the symptoms of many chronic diseases and is the world’s best preventative medicine for the whole body and mind. This series was created to eliminate chronic pain in your body and to reverse the signs of aging.

  • If the heat creates extreme discomfort for you, 4 consecutive days of yoga is all you need to increase your tolerance for the heat.
