Hot Yoga? *UPDATED* I tried it...
Anyone ever try this? My sister is doing it because Birkam is doing a special: $20 for 20 CONSECUTIVE days.
90 mins in a 100 degree room everyday for 20 days straight doesnt seem like a good idea to me. She says she knows someone who lost 17 lbs in water weight but I dont even think thats healthy.
Thoughts anyone?
UPDATE 9/13-
While I was originally against this idea, my sister really talked me into it so I figured 1 class couldnt hurt. I went this morning. I have to admit, at first I hated it but once I got into it, I liked it and I will continue to go until my 20 sessions are up. I went to Bikram in RVC. I have the info if any one wants it.

Re: Hot Yoga?
Wow. I do not think it is healthy to do that 20 days in a row. I would only do it 1-2x a week max. Insane

Re: Hot Yoga?
I enjoy hot yoga, but 20 days in a row seems like a lot to me especially for someone who's not used to doing it.. it's a tough workout & unless you drink a lot I would think it's easy to become dehydrated by doing it that much since you sweat so much.

Re: Hot Yoga?
I love Bikram. I used to do it all the time when I live in NYC, but now I cannot find a studio near me. I had lost a lot of weight before I started doing it and it really kept it off. As soon as I stopped I gained 10lbs.
I went on a yoga trip and they had Bikram there that same week and I think I did it every day for 7 days. But, I was doing it once a week and Hatha yoga 2 times a week. I think to start up doing it 20 days is a little bit much on ones body. Just make sure she drinks a ton of water.
I tell you, I never felt so much clarity as I did after a class. And a natural high that nothing compares to.

There's also in Woodbury & Dix Hills
Yoga Oasis
DH & I did it once (at the Dix Hills location when they ran a $20 special) and it was too hot for us so we never went again.
