Definitely Jen. The more yoga the merrier! It is fantastic that we have access to this at all in Perth though, and I’m sure that more studios will start to open up – maybe in Winter when everyone wants to warm up more!!

The instructors and staff at Bikram in North Perth and Myaree are very professional and very friendly and helpful. I desperately want a studio closer to home as I am absolutely loving and feeling the benefits of these classes but it takes 3 hours out of a day. I attend the 6pm in North Perth or Myaree and it takes me 1 hour to get there. Add that to the 90 minute class, trying to arrive 20 minutes early and 30 minute drive home that is a lot of time away from family. I am so so so suprised that one has not been opened in Vic Park, Cannington, Canningvale or THE HILLS. Anyone with a few dollars to open a studio and employ the staff would benefit greatly with the amount of interest out there in this style of yoga.

Really interesting comment Sef, thanks for your input!

I personally prefer a Hatha style of yoga… I’m not sure if Bikram is targeted at the mind & soul benefits like the others are? I believe it’s more ‘body’

I have to agree with the comments above. They recommend you arrive at least 30 minutes before the start of class to guarantee a place. However, in many instances this is not early enough and you are left waiting a long time to find out there are no spaces left for the class. Even more frustrating is the overcrowding in the class, so much so that you can hardly focus on the poses you are supposed to be mastering. It is also rather difficult to know if you are in the correct position for the pose if you can’t see yourself in the mirror – and due to the overcrowded nature of the classes, catching a glimpse of yourself in the mirror is near impossible. The more i practised bikram, the more i began to question if it is really a form of yoga that provides me with the body, mind and soul nourishment I require. I would recommend all to try the introductory offer if you are curious, however, it is not a style of yoga that suits everyone – and did not suit me.

Totally agree with the overcrowding too. It does make it more difficult and arriving for a class 15 minutes before I was turned away due to it being full…don’t know that I can be bothered with it for that reason alone. Perhaps we just need more Bikram yoga classes/centres in perth – anyone??? Could be very profitable for someone!
