The session is 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises, practiced in a 40-degree hot room. The heat accelerates the rate of change within the body, improves circulation, helps eliminate toxins and decreases the risk of injury during stretching. It is appropriate for all ages and levels. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The Bikram method was created for today&#8217;s people because of our stressful problems, bad eating habits and aggressive lifestyle. It has been designed to prevent illness and injury, help with weight loss, and limit the effects of aging. A regular practice of Bikram Yoga will improve concentration, patience, decrease stress, relieve backaches and headaches for numerous benefits. The effect of using the mind to strengthen the body and the body to enrich the mind helps to obtain rapid growth in daily life.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Over time you will learn how to focus your mind and control your breathing, bringing you into balance between hard work and harmony. As you improve this relationship you will realize the real meaning of yoga: the union of body, mind, and spirit.<\/span><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module accordion -->\n<div  class=\"module module-accordion tb_fih630 \" data-behavior=\"toggle\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n    \n    <ul class=\"ui module-accordion separate  tb_default_color\">\n            <li>\n            <div class=\"accordion-title tf_rel\">\n                <a href=\"#acc-fih630-0\" class=\"tb_title_accordion\" aria-controls=\"acc-fih630-0\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n                                                            <span class=\"accordion-title-wrap\">How does it work?<\/span>                <\/a>\n            <\/div><!-- .accordion-title -->\n            <div id=\"acc-fih630-0\" data-id=\"acc-fih630-0\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"accordion-content tf_hide tf_clearfix\">\n                                    <div class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n                        <p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Each posture systematically works the next posture, giving energy, endurance, and flexibility. As we age our muscles tend to stiffen, creating more pressure on our joints. With regular stretching we prevent this gradual deterioration. For this reason, yoga has a rejuvenating effect. With a regular Bikram practice, you release large amounts of energy, which you can use in your daily life to feel more alive and fulfilled. We look, move, and feel younger.<\/span><\/p>                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div><!-- .accordion-content -->\n        <\/li>\n        <\/ul>\n\n<\/div><!-- \/module accordion --><!-- module accordion -->\n<div  class=\"module module-accordion tb_tf6g698 \" data-behavior=\"toggle\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n    \n    <ul class=\"ui module-accordion separate  tb_default_color\">\n            <li>\n            <div class=\"accordion-title tf_rel\">\n                <a href=\"#acc-tf6g698-0\" class=\"tb_title_accordion\" aria-controls=\"acc-tf6g698-0\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n                                                            <span class=\"accordion-title-wrap\">Why with heat?<\/span>                <\/a>\n            <\/div><!-- .accordion-title -->\n            <div id=\"acc-tf6g698-0\" data-id=\"acc-tf6g698-0\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"accordion-content tf_hide tf_clearfix\">\n                                    <div class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n                        <p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The room is intentionally heated, to warm up the muscles so we can work more deeply and safely.

At 5, he began his studies with Bishnu Gosh (Paramahnsa Yogananda&#8217;s brother) and quickly became a yoga champion. At 13, he won the National Yoga Competition, becoming the youngest contestant in history. At 14, Swami Shivananda named him &#8220;Yogi Raj&#8221; (King of Yogis). At 20, he injured himself lifting weights. With the help of his Guru, Bikram created his series of 26 postures that rehabilitated him completely. In a project at the University of Tokyo, sponsored by the United Nations, Bikram helped doctors prove that yoga regenerates tissues and cures chronic diseases. By combining Eastern and Western medicine, Bikram perfected his system, suitable for any age and fitness level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Bikram came to the United States in 1973, invited by President Nixon and recruited by Shirley Maclaine. Since then, he has healed thousands of students at his Beverly Hills school and has traveled the world, bringing the benefits of Bikram Yoga to millions of people.<\/span><\/p>                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div><!-- .accordion-content -->\n        <\/li>\n        <\/ul>\n\n<\/div><!-- \/module accordion --><!-- module accordion -->\n<div  class=\"module module-accordion tb_cm99299 \" data-behavior=\"toggle\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n    \n    <ul class=\"ui module-accordion separate  tb_default_color\">\n            <li>\n            <div class=\"accordion-title tf_rel\">\n                <a href=\"#acc-cm99299-0\" class=\"tb_title_accordion\" aria-controls=\"acc-cm99299-0\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n                                                            <span class=\"accordion-title-wrap\">Lucia\u2019s statement regarding Bikram Choudhury<\/span>                <\/a>\n            <\/div><!-- .accordion-title -->\n            <div id=\"acc-cm99299-0\" data-id=\"acc-cm99299-0\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"accordion-content tf_hide tf_clearfix\">\n                                    <div class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n                        <p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><b>Bikram Yoga Barcelona is a female run and independently owned yoga school.<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0In 2003 I opened my first school in Madrid. So passionate and excited about yoga I wanted to \u201cspread the word\u201d to as many people as possible about this amazing yoga and its benefits. And so it was: I opened 4 schools in both Madrid and Barcelona with the idea to create a safe place to practice and share the experience. I have seen the life changing affects this yoga has when you do a regular practice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Unfortunately, and to my own disappointment Bikram Choudhury has been unethical with his power. I therefore need to be clear that I have never given Bikram money to use his name or to offer his yoga, taken money to teach at his teacher trainings or paid any franchise fees or been part of a franchise. I am not associated with Bikram Choudhury and he has never taught or did seminars in any of my 4 yoga schools while I was the owner. I try to separated what is the yoga from who is the man.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The yoga postures are over 1000 years old, he put them together with his guru Bishnu Gosh, adding the heat in a series that bears his name. I therefore do feel it would be incorrect not to call this yoga Bikram. I condemn and am appalled by his behavior and actions. I support the women and men that were victims of his abuse. Someday the studio will change its name but as of now calling it Bikram Yoga is not showing my support to the man or disrespecting his victims; it is the labor of over 18 years.<\/span><\/p>                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div><!-- .accordion-content -->\n        <\/li>\n        <\/ul>\n\n<\/div><!-- \/module accordion --><!-- module buttons -->\n<div  class=\"module module-buttons tb_vm58654 buttons-horizontal solid  small rounded\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div class=\"module-buttons-item tf_in_flx\">\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eversports.es\/scl\/bikram-yoga-barcelona\" class=\"ui builder_button tf_in_flx light-purple\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n                                                book a class                                        <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<!-- \/module buttons -->\n        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n                        <div  id=\"antigravity\" data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_row themify_builder_row tb_s6gk28 tf_w\">\n                        <div class=\"row_inner col_align_top tb_col_count_1 tf_box tf_rel\">\n                        <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column tb-column col-full tb_kp3g29 first\">\n                            <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_subrow themify_builder_sub_row tf_w direction_rtl col_align_middle tb_col_count_2 tb_qmrm29\">\n                <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column sub_column col2-1 tb_zx3529 first\">\n                    <!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_4qnn30   \" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n        <h2 style=\"text-align: left\">Anti Gravity<\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">A 60-minute class without heat for all levels.

NOT JUST FOR WOMEN.<\/span><\/p>    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- \/module text --><!-- module accordion -->\n<div  class=\"module module-accordion tb_s90i983 \" data-behavior=\"toggle\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n    \n    <ul class=\"ui module-accordion separate  tb_default_color\">\n            <li>\n            <div class=\"accordion-title tf_rel\">\n                <a href=\"#acc-s90i983-0\" class=\"tb_title_accordion\" aria-controls=\"acc-s90i983-0\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n                                                            <span class=\"accordion-title-wrap\">How It Works<\/span>                <\/a>\n            <\/div><!-- .accordion-title -->\n            <div id=\"acc-s90i983-0\" data-id=\"acc-s90i983-0\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"accordion-content tf_hide tf_clearfix\">\n                                    <div class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n                        <p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This class focuses on creating awareness, stability, tone and flexibility in an area that is considered a dead zone; you probably do not even know you have it, the pelvic floor. How often do you strengthen your pelvic floor? More often the focus is on creating strong abs which could be weakening the connective tissue that supports the bladder. The great news is that the pelvic floor muscles can be strengthened. The uniqueness of this class is that it just does not focus on the pelvic floor but the intrinsic unity between the upper and lower body and breath awareness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">The class begins by awaking the consciousness of the energy center at the base of the spine, the root chakra Muladhara and working our way up to the crown chakra Sahasrara. <\/span><\/p>                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div><!-- .accordion-content -->\n        <\/li>\n        <\/ul>\n\n<\/div><!-- \/module accordion --><!-- module accordion -->\n<div  class=\"module module-accordion tb_bcus30 \" data-behavior=\"toggle\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n    \n    <ul class=\"ui module-accordion   tb_default_color\">\n            <li>\n            <div class=\"accordion-title tf_rel\">\n                <a href=\"#acc-bcus30-0\" class=\"tb_title_accordion\" aria-controls=\"acc-bcus30-0\" aria-expanded=\"false\">\n                                                            <span class=\"accordion-title-wrap\">Full Explanation<\/span>                <\/a>\n            <\/div><!-- .accordion-title -->\n            <div id=\"acc-bcus30-0\" data-id=\"acc-bcus30-0\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"accordion-content tf_hide tf_clearfix\">\n                                    <div class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n                        <p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">With time gravity begins to win. The pelvic floor, the \u201chammock\u201d that is formed by the muscles that run from the frontal pubic bone to the base of the spine, holds all the pelvic organs (vagina, uterus, bowel and bladder) in place and supports the bladder to provide control when you urinate. The pelvic floor muscles can lose their strength and stability. Pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, high impact exercise, six pack obsession, obesity, and prostate cancer surgery can take their toll on the pelvic floor and this can lead to urinary incontinence and pain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">By focusing on muscle balance, not just in the pelvic region but also in the shoulders and thorax spine, you can confront (tackle) the root cause of the issue rather than manage the symptoms. With a regular practice the benefits are strong pelvic floor muscles, more control over bladder leaks, strong core abs strength, improve sexual sensitivity and relief from lower back pain. Our goal is to keep the muscles supple, strong, and responsive.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">This class is my own journey to find relief from pain and avoid surgery because of prolapse. I found that most classes or programs just focus on the pelvic floor and strengthening the one area. However, the pelvic floor is intrinsically connected to the shoulders, diaphragm (breathing), and the spine. They work in unity. I have designed this class to take a holistic conscious approach to healing the region.\u00a0\u00a0Good news is that I no longer have pain in the region and I have avoided surgery.<\/span><\/p>                    <\/div>\n                            <\/div><!-- .accordion-content -->\n        <\/li>\n        <\/ul>\n\n<\/div><!-- \/module accordion --><!-- module buttons -->\n<div  class=\"module module-buttons tb_tulq30 buttons-horizontal solid  small rounded\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div class=\"module-buttons-item tf_in_flx\">\n                        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eversports.es\/scl\/bikram-yoga-barcelona\" class=\"ui builder_button tf_in_flx light-purple\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">\n                                                book a class                                        <\/a>\n                <\/div>\n            <\/div>\n<!-- \/module buttons -->\n        <\/div>\n                    <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column sub_column col2-1 tb_13h829 last\">\n                    <!-- module image -->\n<div  class=\"module module-image tb_3p6z29 image-full-overlay   auto_fullwidth tf_mw\" data-lazy=\"1\">\n        <div class=\"image-wrap tf_rel tf_mw\">\n            <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/bikramyoga.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Antigravity-back-b-wall.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" alt=\"\">    \n        <\/div>\n    <!-- \/image-wrap -->\n    \n        <\/div>\n<!-- \/module image -->        <\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n                        <div  data-parallax-bg=\"desktop\" data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_row themify_builder_row tb_0swi254 tf_w hide-mobile\">\n                        <div class=\"row_inner col_align_top tb_col_count_1 tf_box tf_rel\">\n                        <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column tb-column col-full tb_6f6p255 first\">\n                            <\/div>\n                        <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n                        <div  id=\"antigravity-2\" data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_row themify_builder_row tb_yw86738 tf_w\">\n                        <div class=\"row_inner col_align_top tb_col_count_1 tf_box tf_rel\">\n                        <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column tb-column col-full tb_zfl9739 first\">\n                            <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_subrow themify_builder_sub_row tf_w direction_rtl col_align_middle tb_col_count_2 tb_60v5740\">\n                <div  data-lazy=\"1\" class=\"module_column sub_column col2-1 tb_ckqt742 first\">\n                    <!-- module text -->\n<div  class=\"module module-text tb_ojrv742   \" data-lazy=\"1\" id=\"YinYang\">\n        <div  class=\"tb_text_wrap\">\n        <h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Yin Yang Yoga <\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">A 90 minute class that brings together the benefits of 2 styles of yoga into one class, Bikram Yoga and Yin Yoga. <\/span><span class=\"s2\">\u00a0It is the concept of how seemingly opposite or contrary forces may be complementary and needed to maintain balance.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s3\">Yin yoga is a slower practice where postures are held for longer.

The session is 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises, practiced in a 40-degree hot room. The heat accelerates the rate of change within the body, improves circulation, helps eliminate toxins and decreases the risk of injury during stretching. It is appropriate for all ages and levels. <\/p> <p>The Bikram method was created for today's people because of our stressful problems, bad eating habits and aggressive lifestyle. It has been designed to prevent illness and injury, help with weight loss, and limit the effects of aging. A regular practice of Bikram Yoga will improve concentration, patience, decrease stress, relieve backaches and headaches for numerous benefits. The effect of using the mind to strengthen the body and the body to enrich the mind helps to obtain rapid growth in daily life.<\/p> <p>Over time you will learn how to focus your mind and control your breathing, bringing you into balance between hard work and harmony. As you improve this relationship you will realize the real meaning of yoga: the union of body, mind, and spirit.<\/p>\n<ul><li><h4>How does it work?<\/h4><p>Each posture systematically works the next posture, giving energy, endurance, and flexibility. As we age our muscles tend to stiffen, creating more pressure on our joints. With regular stretching we prevent this gradual deterioration. For this reason, yoga has a rejuvenating effect. With a regular Bikram practice, you release large amounts of energy, which you can use in your daily life to feel more alive and fulfilled. We look, move, and feel younger.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>\n<ul><li><h4>Why with heat?<\/h4><p>The room is intentionally heated, to warm up the muscles so we can work more deeply and safely. Heat also heals, prevents injuries and the sweat helps to eliminate toxins from the body.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>\n<ul><li><h4>What if I am not flexible?<\/h4><p>It is a common misconception that turns people away from trying yoga. Yoga is not just for flexible people, but for strengthening in all directions of the body and spine. In fact, if you are not flexible, if you cannot touch your feet or even see them, you are a perfect candidate to take on all the benefits of yoga.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>\n<ul><li><h4>For whom?<\/h4><p>For everyone, Bikram says \"it's never too late, you're never too old, never too bad or never too sick to do this yoga and start from scratch.\" Bikram Yoga is challenging, no matter what your fitness level. The series works equally well for the beginner or advanced student.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>\n<ul><li><h4>Some Benefits<\/h4><p>- Improved flexibility and spinal strength.<\/p> <p>- Weight loss<\/p> <p>- Increases vitality, energy, and relaxation<\/p> <p>- Reduces stress<\/p> <p>- Delays the aging process<\/p> <p>- Helps eliminate toxins<\/p> <p>- Improves blood circulation<\/p> <p>- Lubricates joints and strengthens bones<\/p> <p>- Stimulates the immune system organs<\/p> <p>- Balances endocrine glands<\/p> <p>- Frees the lymphatic system<\/p> <p>- Expands lung capacity and strengthens the heart<\/p> <p>- Stretches, tones and balances muscles throughout the body to support the joints and spine<\/p> <p>- Quiets the mind's surges of thoughts<\/p> <p>- Facilitates the connection between mind and body<\/p> <p>- Overall sensation of wellness<\/p> <p><b>Know your limits but be prepared for them to change.<\/b><\/p><\/li><\/ul>\n<ul><li><h4>Who is Bikram Choudhury?<\/h4><p>Bikram Choudhury learned Hatha Yoga in his native India at the age of 3. At 5, he began his studies with Bishnu Gosh (Paramahnsa Yogananda's brother) and quickly became a yoga champion. At 13, he won the National Yoga Competition, becoming the youngest contestant in history. At 14, Swami Shivananda named him \"Yogi Raj\" (King of Yogis). At 20, he injured himself lifting weights. With the help of his Guru, Bikram created his series of 26 postures that rehabilitated him completely. In a project at the University of Tokyo, sponsored by the United Nations, Bikram helped doctors prove that yoga regenerates tissues and cures chronic diseases. By combining Eastern and Western medicine, Bikram perfected his system, suitable for any age and fitness level.<\/p> <p>Bikram came to the United States in 1973, invited by President Nixon and recruited by Shirley Maclaine. Since then, he has healed thousands of students at his Beverly Hills school and has traveled the world, bringing the benefits of Bikram Yoga to millions of people.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>\n<ul><li><h4>Lucia\u2019s statement regarding Bikram Choudhury<\/h4><p><b>Bikram Yoga Barcelona is a female run and independently owned yoga school.<\/b>\u00a0\u00a0In 2003 I opened my first school in Madrid. So passionate and excited about yoga I wanted to \u201cspread the word\u201d to as many people as possible about this amazing yoga and its benefits. And so it was: I opened 4 schools in both Madrid and Barcelona with the idea to create a safe place to practice and share the experience. I have seen the life changing affects this yoga has when you do a regular practice.<\/p> <p>Unfortunately, and to my own disappointment Bikram Choudhury has been unethical with his power. I therefore need to be clear that I have never given Bikram money to use his name or to offer his yoga, taken money to teach at his teacher trainings or paid any franchise fees or been part of a franchise. I am not associated with Bikram Choudhury and he has never taught or did seminars in any of my 4 yoga schools while I was the owner. I try to separated what is the yoga from who is the man.<\/p> <p>The yoga postures are over 1000 years old, he put them together with his guru Bishnu Gosh, adding the heat in a series that bears his name. I therefore do feel it would be incorrect not to call this yoga Bikram. I condemn and am appalled by his behavior and actions. I support the women and men that were victims of his abuse. Someday the studio will change its name but as of now calling it Bikram Yoga is not showing my support to the man or disrespecting his victims; it is the labor of over 18 years.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eversports.es\/scl\/bikram-yoga-barcelona\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> book a class <\/a>\n<img src=\"https:\/\/bikramyoga.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/Antigravity-back-b-wall.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" alt=\"\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left\">Anti Gravity<\/h2> <p>A 60-minute class without heat for all levels. If you have pelvic, hip or knee pain, experiencing incontinence or a prolapsed organ and want to tone your body this class is for you. Through various yoga postures, ballet bar training, and supported inversions you will challenge yourself in a non-striving, safe, and fun way. For those that think handstands or backbends at 50 years old or any age are impossible, you will be amazed! NOT JUST FOR WOMEN.<\/p>\n<ul><li><h4>How It Works<\/h4><p>This class focuses on creating awareness, stability, tone and flexibility in an area that is considered a dead zone; you probably do not even know you have it, the pelvic floor. How often do you strengthen your pelvic floor? More often the focus is on creating strong abs which could be weakening the connective tissue that supports the bladder. The great news is that the pelvic floor muscles can be strengthened. The uniqueness of this class is that it just does not focus on the pelvic floor but the intrinsic unity between the upper and lower body and breath awareness.<\/p> <p>The class begins by awaking the consciousness of the energy center at the base of the spine, the root chakra Muladhara and working our way up to the crown chakra Sahasrara. <\/p><\/li><\/ul>\n<ul><li><h4>Full Explanation<\/h4><p>With time gravity begins to win. The pelvic floor, the \u201chammock\u201d that is formed by the muscles that run from the frontal pubic bone to the base of the spine, holds all the pelvic organs (vagina, uterus, bowel and bladder) in place and supports the bladder to provide control when you urinate. The pelvic floor muscles can lose their strength and stability. Pregnancy, childbirth, menopause, high impact exercise, six pack obsession, obesity, and prostate cancer surgery can take their toll on the pelvic floor and this can lead to urinary incontinence and pain.<\/p> <p>By focusing on muscle balance, not just in the pelvic region but also in the shoulders and thorax spine, you can confront (tackle) the root cause of the issue rather than manage the symptoms. With a regular practice the benefits are strong pelvic floor muscles, more control over bladder leaks, strong core abs strength, improve sexual sensitivity and relief from lower back pain. Our goal is to keep the muscles supple, strong, and responsive.<\/p> <p>This class is my own journey to find relief from pain and avoid surgery because of prolapse. I found that most classes or programs just focus on the pelvic floor and strengthening the one area. However, the pelvic floor is intrinsically connected to the shoulders, diaphragm (breathing), and the spine. They work in unity. I have designed this class to take a holistic conscious approach to healing the region.\u00a0\u00a0Good news is that I no longer have pain in the region and I have avoided surgery.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eversports.es\/scl\/bikram-yoga-barcelona\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> book a class <\/a>\n<img src=\"https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/lucia-pigeon.jpg\" title=\"lucia pigeon\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/lucia-pigeon.jpg 2400w, https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/lucia-pigeon-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/lucia-pigeon-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/lucia-pigeon-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/lucia-pigeon-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/09\/lucia-pigeon-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 2400px) 100vw, 2400px\" \/>\n<h2>Yin Yang Yoga <\/h2> <p>A 90 minute class that brings together the benefits of 2 styles of yoga into one class, Bikram Yoga and Yin Yoga. \u00a0It is the concept of how seemingly opposite or contrary forces may be complementary and needed to maintain balance.<\/p> <p>Yin yoga is a slower practice where postures are held for longer. It works on the deep, dense connective tissues and joints in the body. <b>Yin is cool, slow, passive, downward, and inward moving.<\/b> In contrast, Bikram Yoga (the Yang) is a more active practice that works on the muscles and blood flow, building strength, stamina and flexibility. <b>Yang is more active, fiery, upward and outward moving<\/b>. \u00a0<\/p> <p>By combining the 2 forces of Yin and Yang elements in one class we create a powerful balance of energy, flexibility, strength leaving the body to feel invigorated, relaxed and a focused and meditative mind. So powerful. <\/p>\n<ul><li><h4>How It Works<\/h4><p>The class starts with a 55 minute Bikram class with less heat. The last 20 minutos of is a Yin Yoga class where the heat is turned off and the music turned on. Unlike the Bikram class which is a set series of postures, in the Yin class postures vary focusing on opening a specific area of the body, the hips, back, heart, all depending on the class needs. <\/p><\/li><\/ul>\n<ul><li><h4>Benefits<\/h4><ul> <li>Stimulates the meridians (energy channels) bringing balance to the organs in the body<\/li> <li>Removes tension and obstacles in the body to allow breath and prana to flow<\/li> <li>Improves flexibility and joint mobility<\/li> <li>Calms and balances the mind and body reducing stress and anxiety<\/li> <li>Works deeply on the connective tissues (fascia, tendons and ligaments)<\/li> <li>Strengthens and tones the body and increases stamina<\/li> <li>You leave rejuvenated, alive and in synch<\/li> <\/ul><\/li><\/ul>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.eversports.es\/scl\/bikram-yoga-barcelona\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> book a class <\/a>\n<img src=\"https:\/\/bikramyoga.es\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/CL-BIKRAM-603-2.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" alt=\"\">\n<h2 style=\"text-align: right\">38<\/h2> <p><b>Intermediate Hatha yoga class <\/b>is where we practice the aspects of Pranayama (breathing techniques), Asanas (physical yoga postures), Pratyahara (withdrawal of the senses), Dharana (concentration) y Dhyana (meditation).<\/p> <p>The class draws on the rich advance Bikram yoga practice of 84 postures. In each class different postures are practiced depending on the level and concentration of the class. Collectively we work together in almost silence, fine tuning our concentration and going beyond preconceived concepts in a non-striving and non-judgmental environment. You will learn new postures and abilities; it goes beyond the physical. As one student said, \u201cI finally understand Shanti Shanti.\u201d<\/p> <p>This class is not open to everyone. It requires that you have completed the \u201cTaller 38\u201d, maintain a regular yoga practice and have been approved to join the club.<\/p> <p>If you are interested let Lucia know at the school.<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/contact\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> MESSAGE US <\/a>\n<h2>Any Queries?<\/h2> <p>Please contact us if you have any questions or doubts about anything yoga!<\/p>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/bikramyoga.es\/contact\/\" > contact us <\/a>","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/210","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=210"}],"version-history":[{"count":67,"href":"https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/210\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2611,"href":"https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/210\/revisions\/2611"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bikramyoga.es\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=210"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
