I have been practicing Hot Yoga, more widely known as Bikram Yoga, since April 2014.  I still remember my first class in the since closed (thanks COVID!) Hot Spot Dupont in Dupont Circle.  After my first class with Carolan, I was hooked! I have since become a Yoga Alliance certified instructor and it is one of my life's greatest passions.  Teaching has opened a new layer of self-knowledge and depth that I didn't know I could reach.  I encourage everyone that will listen to try it, at least once! You won't regret it! 

What is this yoga exactly?

This specific practice is a 90-minute moving meditation in a 105 degree heated room with up to 40% humidity.  The postures allow you to compress and relax your body in ways you've likely only done in the womb.  You do each of the 26 postures twice, and there are two breathing exercises, to begin and end the class. A must for my fellow Type As ! 

Where do I practice? 

I will be doing private classes in my Hot Yoga Dome, in my backyard, this Spring 2021 - sign up for updates! In the meantime, I encourage you to sign up for in-person or virtual classes at the Bikram Yoga Works studio, owned the wonderful Kendra Blackett-Dibinga, a wonderful mentor and friend.
