Yoga in Prague

If you are looking for a low impact workout that will burn away calories in no time at all, have a look at Bikram Yoga, located in Prague 4.

Bikram Yoga offers hot yoga, the combination of performing classic Hatha yoga poses or asanas in a heated room (more specifically 105 degrees Fahrenheit, 40 degrees Celsius). The heat in the room helps you to enhance or intensify your yoga workout as your muscles are more elastic, not to mention that you are also getting a good cardio workout as well as sweating out toxins from your body. Bikram Yoga in Prague is headed by certified Bikram yoga teacher Tereza Bonnet Šenková, a former contemporary dancer who also performed at the famous Moulin Rouge in Paris. Tereza Bonnet Šenková studied under Bikram Choudhury, the founder of Bikram yoga in Los Angeles, California and obtained a certificate to run her own studio. It is important to note that Šenková recovered from a painful hip surgery in the past only after two months of doing Bikram yoga and was able to return to her dancing career, which can only prove the overall and excellent health benefits of the Bikram method. The long list of health benefits deal with not only physical health but also with mental health. Some of these health benefits include getting rid of job related and emotional stress, high cholesterol, lethargy and insomnia. Bikram yoga can also help with chronic illness, back and neck pain, headaches and migraines, sports injuries, weight loss, crosstraining or sports conditioning, carpal tunnel syndrome and more. What is more, Bikram yoga is recommended for everyone, whether you are a beginner or a yogi master. It is necessary to book 24-hours in advance for a class, which you can do online. The studio setting is comfortable and light; there is even a healthy café in the studio. Towels, mats and water are all available (for a fee). Classes are held in English and in Czech. Babysitting is provided as well (please check the schedule online). If you are seeking a workout that will provide quick results and will calm both your body and mind, give Bikram yoga a try!
