Why I don't do "Hot Yoga"


Video

Description

I know…EVERYONE loves hot yoga! I just can’t do it. Watch this video for normal temperature yoga

I wanted to like it. I know there are a lot of great benefits from the heat. But after giving it a shot these were my main complaints:

I kept almost blacking out. The room would start spinning. Everything began to go dark. I had to sit down. My friend, Amber, actually had a seizure in a Bikram class several years ago. The ambulance and EMT’s took her out on a stretcher. The teacher just kept the class going.

It’s hard to know how flexible you are. The heat makes your body extra limber. This might seem good until you over stretch. The possibility for injury is greater when you’re body is that hot.

The teachers can be kind of mean. I noticed multiple hot yoga teachers pointing out student’s mistakes to the class. It seemed that modifications we not welcome. It kind of scared me.

I know some people love hot yoga (but it’s not for me). I may have just had some bad experiences. It was a long time ago (probably 1997-ish), so things could be different now. The very first yoga classes I ever went to were at a Bikram studio. My friends were really into it and I had been wanting to try yoga. I was sooooo disappointed because I didn’t realize there were other styles of yoga. I was super happy to find that wasn’t the case. And…BTW, I actually know a couple of hot yoga teachers who are very sweet.
