Bikram's Yoga College Of India

I've been practicing Bikram Yoga for 9 years and this has been my best experience by far. The studio is cleaner than any other studio I've been to -- NO FUNKY SMELL! They have several senior teachers and everybody seems to know each other by name. Students, teachers and staff behind the desk were all very friendly and welcoming to me. Corrections were given in a friendly manner and by name. They have a great selection of clothes and drinks -- they are set up so that if you forget anything, it's all right there for you. The room is nice and hot, but with enough humidity and air flow -- not stuffy at all! There are windows all across the back wall that look out over the trees. It's very pleasant. The studio seems really busy and there are lots of good class times on the schedule. They have 30 classes every week. They also have their own off-street parking lot. It took me a second to find it because it is across the street from the studio, but it's there. I hear that it's one of the first studios built in the US. I really like it there and will definitely go back. Pros: Parking, Family-Run, Great Instructors, Convenient, The Real Thing Cons: Only 1 shower in the mens room. more

Good location and parking lot available, but the afternoon weekday classes are too crowded and the temp is hotter than any other studio I've been to. That is okay but when it's super-crowded they don't drop the temp some to accomodate all the bodies so sometimes it's way too hot!! The instructors are great though -- they are experienced and always nice. Pros: great instructors Cons: crowded weekdays, owner, not the cleanest more
