Spring Into Yoga  
2 FREE Classes when you buy 10!

Spring is nature's way of saying, Let's party! Robin Williams

During every Bikram Yoga class, you are flushing oxygenated blood around 100% of your body. This is what our heart does naturally. But the 26 postures of Bikram Yoga are specifically designed to compress and release each part of our body, flooding each joint and every internal organ, with fresh oxygenated blood. This provides them with the nutrition they need to do their jobs.

From that one spot on your mat, you are increasing your heart rate, which
boosts high-density lipoprotein (HDL) or 'good' cholesterol and decreases unhealthy triglycerides. This keeps your blood flowing smoothly, 
which decreases your risk of cardiovascular diseases. 

Every time you step in the room, onto your mat and into your practise, you are releasing happy hormones, like endorphins. These elevate your mood and help release stress, anxiety and combat feelings of depression. The stretching and releasing of your muscle tension help move stress out of your body.

We could of course go on and on and on.... 
 but basically Bikram Yoga = Party Time for your body!
So come join the party with TWO FREE CLASS on every 10 class card purchased.

The maths: 

12 classes for the price of 10 (45 day expiry) - �110 = �9.17/class

12 classes for the price of 10 (6 month expiry) - �120 = �10/Class  


 

12 classes for the price of 10 (45 day expiry) Concession Rate - �99 = �8.25/class

12 classes for the price of 10 (6 month expiry) Concession Rate - �108 = �9/Class.

Bikram, Arthritis and me.
BYCer Beckys' Bikram Journey.

Becky

I never thought that yoga was the sport for me. I've been a gymnast, 

a hockey player, a gym fanatic and, most recently, an obsessive spinning freak! All of this has helped in managing my type 1 diabetes, but when I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis a year ago, I really thought that my life as an active sportsperson was over.

I struggled to walk more than a few metres without being in unbearable pain, and my wrists had seized up to the point where I couldn't even go shopping without having a friend carry my bags ...and then there was Bikram!


 

I was introduced to Bikram Yoga Chiswick by my housemate, who had recently been through the horrible ordeal of Breast Cancer and the rigours of a lengthy Chemo process. She swore by the benefits of Bikram and it only took a couple of sessions for me to understand the amazing difference it could make to me, both mentally and physically.

I'm definitely not the cheesy sales person who will say something just for effect, but if my experience can help even one person, I'll be happy. After only 3 months of Bikram, the results are just incredible. I've reduced my anti-inflammatory drugs from 6mg/day down to 1mg. I have full rotation in both of my wrists as opposed to only being able to move them 45 degrees, and on the days that I go to yoga, my insulin requirement has reduced by at least 50%.


 

I would be na�ve to believe that this was all because of Bikram yoga - but I would also be stupid to think that it hasn't played a crucial role in making me feel like a real person again. Whether it's because the cocktail of drugs that I'm taking is finally working, or just because my job is making me happier than I was before...I don't really care. But what I do know is that BYC has changed the way my body works for the better and I will be forever thankful that I paid my �40 introduction fee to start my Bikram journey!


 

Thank you so much for making it possible for me to shop without assistance and for me to run for the bus without being in horrible amounts of pain!

A fan for life,

Becky

Account For Yourself
Leave Your Wallet at Home

In the mad rush to squeeze as much out of life and our days as possible, making an hour and half for yourself and your yoga has never been so important. But with so much going on it is so easy to arrive at your yoga class with your water still on the desk at work, your towel sitting by the front door, under hydrated and your wallet in the bag with your towel sitting by the front door.... 

Never fear... Introducing the BYC Account: Did you know every BYCer has an account? Whether you've chosen to take advantage of this yet or not - you do have one! Your BYC account, to use an americanism, is store credit, so you don't have to remember to bring money with you every time you come.

 21-23rd April 2015

Tuesday - Thursday Midweek Special

 


We welcome you to join us for our Hot Yoga mid-week retreat, which will be held at a beautiful Somerset country house, Sparkford Hall. Three days of HOT BIKRAM YOGA and YOGA NIDRA style sessions, woodland walks, healthy locally-sourced food and juices, a restful library and cosy log fire, will guarantee you'll leave feeling refreshed, revitalised and ready to step into the newness of Spring...... 
a healthier, more energised you!

For more information please email: [email protected]




Spring. New beginnings. New possibilities: 
maybe we'll lock the knee for 1 whole minute, 
or come back that extra, and oh so rewarding millimetre in our back bend, 
maybe we'll touch the ceiling in Triangle or simply only wish the teacher would open the window for 1/2 of class rather then the full 90 minutes ;) 
whatever it is, it's our progress, our practise, our reward. 
We can't wait to help you reach each and every one.
See you in class.
