I took the plunge right before Christmas and loved it. Unfortunately the studio is 85 miles away In Farmington Hills, MI although they just opened a new studio In Troy, MI that is only 75 miles away. I have to say that my joints have never felt better after a class. Turning 50 this year sent me into a tail spin especially after I found out that I have Osteopenia and some arthritis in my hips and shoulders. The studio is pretty state of the art - the floor is an antimicrobial type of flooring (looks like melted rubber bands) and the walls are a water proof type of drywall so to speak. Honestly - it doesn't stink. I fully expected it to.
I am not a huge fan of Bikram Choudray as I feel he has turned the yoga community on its ear with his endless lawsuits. Plus his training is almost bordering on ridiculous. You spend 9 weeks in L.A. and workout sometimes up to 15 hours a day - and all it costs is around $10-$12 grand. I don't know how people do it. I know that Yoga Fit has added a new component called Yoga Sweat but I have not heard the details.
I am wondering if any of you have taken a hot yoga class that is not otherwise associated with the Bikram College of Yoga and what your take is on it.
