As most of you know, yoga has been a big part of my life since high school. To everyones surprise I have never taken a hot yoga or Bikram class. The idea of being in a steaming hot room (105°) with sweaty, smelly people turns me off. It wasn't until last week when a friend of mine raved about the new Hot Yoga Saratoga studio that I considered trying this crazy workout. SO I went last week- INTENSE!
Although the heat proved to be a struggle, the strength and flexibility it gave me was addicting. I've already been back twice!
If you enjoy seriously sweating and gaining mind-body connections from exercise I would recommend trying hot yoga. It's crucial to drink a TON of water before and not eat for about 3 hours prior to the workout. Enjoy!
