Meet our March Student of the Month, Krystin!
Did you ever have a healthy habit and then you just stopped doing it? Like many, Covid led people away from their practice. It's always so inspiring to have a student like Krystin return to the yoga room so wholeheartedly. No matter how far you've fallen away, you can always get back up and start again.
"My Bikram journey started back in 2010 when I tagged along with my best friend to try a class. I needed a workout routine and was intrigued by the 90-minute sequence of doing each posture twice. I despise being cold, and since it was wintertime, I was also excited about the heated room. After my first class, I was instantly hooked.
I practiced regularly at a couple of different studios for several years. I couldn’t tell you why, but for some reason, I drifted away from it. Over the years, I tried different types of yoga, although none compared to Bikram for me. I had gotten into a gym routine, and then when COVID hit and everything shut down I started running outside. Of course that eventually became tough on my 40+ year old joints.
Most recently, I joined a gym that offers yoga classes, but they just weren’t doing it for me. I still work out there, but I was missing Bikram. I love the focus, discipline, and consistency of this practice. I love that it is always the same, but also, day to day, it is never the same. I love how it helps me quiet my mind and just be present in class. I love how much I sweat and the way I feel after each class.
I thought coming back after so many years would be difficult, but after one class, I was hooked all over again. I love showing up to a space where everyone practices regularly and the energy of the students and instructors is so welcoming. Every time I come to class, I’m reminded why I love this practice so much."
