All bodies are not the same

by URNotExact at Citysearch

Although the script that the teachers use is always the same, peoples bodies are not. If my thighs are huge, I cannot bring my toes and heels together.If I have tight shoulders, I cannot bring my palms together all the way to the wrists. Look beyond the script, look at the individual.

• Pros: Only Bikram Studio in town
• Cons: Teachers cant see beyond the script

Great studio - disregard the negative comments...

by MemphisGirl73 at Citysearch

I am really shocked to read the negative reviews for Bikram Yoga here in Memphis. Here's why - the teachers are all fantastic. The owner doesn't treat anyone like a 1st grader... she is actually really funny and down to earth! All I can think is that these two women below are just jealous... many of the teachers at this studio are very good and very beautiful too. The place was very very clean and I learned so much about yoga, about myself and I just loved it. I'm a Bikram Yoga convert now and I would recommend it to anyone and everyone. So, if you are thinking about it, just go and don't let the haters dissuade you from checking this place out for yourself. You won't regret it.

• Pros: Clean, great teachers, very informative, great for beginners
• Cons: Be ready to sweat!

Best Bikram School I've been to!

by DanaJ at Citysearch

I have lived in Memphis most of my life and like many women, found my self looking for a way to get healthy, not only physically, but mentally too. But my time is limited. I had heard about Bikram Yoga when I was in NY on business, and searched the web to find out we have our own school here in Memphis! I gave it a try and though it was quite difficult (to say the least!), I left feeling so alive! I have since become a regular Bikram practitioner - have reduced my cholesterol, lowered my b.p., and no longer have chronic back pain!!! I have taken many classes all over the US - Los Angeles, Long Beach, New York City, Chicago, St. Louis, Arizona, New Mexico - and I have to say, we here in Memphis are the luckiest people on earth! This school is outstanding, extremely clean, efficient, strong and the teachers and staff are down to earth and awesome.

Those of you reading this review - my advice is to try it for yourself. Don't let someone else's negative sour-puss attitude sway you. If you really want to get in shape, just like me, you will LOVE this school!

• Pros: Well Educated Teachers, Certified School, Clean
• Cons: None!
