by Kurma Rosen Bikram Yoga is one of the new kids on the block with respect to yoga systems. It is also popularly called hot house yoga by many. Its called this because typically it is practiced in rooms with elevated temperatures. You will often find the heat in these rooms turned up to a full 105 degrees F with humidity of up to 40%. Now thats hot! Bikram Yoga was founded by Bikram Choudhury based on classical yoga. It has 26 postures and 2 breathing techniques. There have been a number of knock offs of this system and this has led to some controversy. Obviously you will sweat in any yoga class but given the temperatures in the Bikram studios, youre really going to pour it out in their classes. So, what sort of yoga clothes should you wear in these classes? First and foremost your yoga clothes must be comfortable. And they must also be functional. You must have freedom of movement and not be restricted in any way. Make sure you buy something that feels good against your skin as well. Given the fact that you will sweat more in these classes than in other yoga schools, it is certainly advisable that the fabric in your yoga clothes be particularly absorbent. After all,

few things feel as uncomfortable as a sticky, clammy body that is sodden from perspiration. Although yoga claims to be a unified system of body, mind and spirit, a lot of people practice yoga to tone their muscles and developing greater awareness. Given this fact, is there anything wrong with wanting to look good while you are in your yoga studio practicing your postures? I mean its one thing to practice at home in an old t-shirt and cut offs but I have to imagine that youve worked hard to look as good as you do and there is nothing wrong with wanting to show the world how you’ve done it. Maybe you want to go out and get one those form fitting little outfits to wear to the Bikram Yoga studio. Show the world your sleek lines and curves while you work yourself into those poses. This way the yoga clothes allow your teacher to be able to see exactly if you are performing the postures correctly or not.
