Recently purchased a PROMO? Welcome! A Quick Guide Below

Josh — Mon, 16 Apr 2012 18:15:50 +0000

Hello, Everybody!

In the past couple of weeks, we’ve had a tremendous turnout at the school as a result of recent promotions, adding many new students to our community. Welcome!

Whether you’ve been practicing for years or have never so much as struck an asana, you’ll find that the tried, tested and true 26 posture series in a room heated to 104 degrees can challenge and change your body and mind in wonderful ways.

In order to make your first visit more enjoyable, it would be best if you:

Please arrive 20 minutes prior to class. This will give you time to register and get set up. Please note that the front desk gets busy towards the start of class, so arriving later than 15 minutes prior to class start may result in you not being able to attend.
Print and bring with you the email confirmation of the promo you’ve purchased.
Make sure you’re well hydrated during the hours before class. You will feel a lot better when you’re practicing.
Avoid eating heavily before class. The practice is an uplifting, strenuous physical exercise, so avoid eating anything that’ll make you feel heavy and full up to a couple of hours before class.
Please read the BYW etiquette guide posted around the studio. It answers most questions. For anything else, please ask at the front desk.

If you’re just breaking into yoga for the first time, please read our Guide to Your First Class. In fact, read it even if you’ve already taken your first class (or your 40th) because we ALL feel like beginners sometimes.

Learn the history of the practice and its benefits on our About Bikram page, and learn more about Bikram Williamsburg and the Studio Director John in About the Studio.

If you ever need motivation to go to class, have a question about the studio or just want to chat with your fellow practitioners, visit us on Facebook and Twitter (Pinterest, coming soon), where we keep you updated on who’s teaching, schedule changes, and other funny and relevant tid-bits, just because.

Thank you for making BYW part of your yoga journey. We’re excited to help guide you as you grow your practice. See you in the hot room!

USA Yoga Asana Championship 2012

John — Mon, 27 Feb 2012 04:40:41 +0000

Yoga asana competitions have been going on almost as long as the practice itself. This Friday, over 100 of the best yogis and yoginis in the country will arrive at Hudson Theatre in Times Square for the 2012 USA Yoga Asana Championship.

For the first time in the competition’s history, the New York Regional Championship and the National Championship will share the same city and the weekend. Winners will go on to the International Yoga Asana Championship to compete for the Bishnu Ghosh Cup.

Throughout the week, we’ll be posting videos of past yoga champions, info about competition rules and history, how to train (could an asana championship be in your future?), and more about the United States Yoga Federation and its mission, (hint: it happens in 2016 and its logo includes 5 intertwined circles).

Want to be part of the excitement this weekend? Buy tickets at the USA Yoga website. You may see a few familiar faces competing during the Regional Championship this Friday.

Coming up: March 30 Day Challenge, and this weekend YOGAUSA.ORG Yoga Championship in NYC

March 30-Day Challenge

Josh — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 00:24:21 +0000

Leap year happens once every four years. It’s a big deal, just like the 30-Day Challenge!

Every year in March we hold a 30-Day Challenge, for many students this is a first – to do yoga every day for 30 days.

The results of the challenge are as diverse as the people who take it. Life changes throughout the 30 days, from new jobs, to new bodies, to renewed health. This year, we encourage you all to take a leap to do the challenge. Leap into the struggle of it, the time commitment of it, and the pure sweaty joy of it. Ask any teacher or student who’s done it before, the 30 Day Challenge is an amazing life changer.

Look for the sign-up poster at the studio in February. If you’re not sure, sign up anyway. You still have plenty of time to get your ducks in a row. You can do it. We believe in you!
