Essential to the proper practice of BikramYoga™ is a consistent observance of Bikram’s prescribed method as a whole, without modification or alteration. The benefits of Bikram Yoga can not be fully realized unless certified Instructors and studios strictly observe Bikram’s method. Bikram Choudhury and the Yoga College of India continuously require every certified Instructor to provide instruction consistent with Bikram’s prescribed yoga method.

Refer to the directory of Certified Studios for qualified instructors who maintain strict adherence to the BikramYoga™ method.
