Bikram Yoga San Jose

Yoga Athlete Practice information session
Friday, September 18 – 12:00 pm-1:30 pm

We’re on the road to competition! On Friday, September 18, from 12:00-1:30 pm, we invite you to attend a special information session about YAP, led by Cynthia Wehr and Michele Vennard.
Whether you have competed before, dream of trying, or want to learn all about yoga as a sport, this session is for you – everyone is welcome!

Bikram Yoga San Jose is a regional center for Yoga Sport. This weekly practice highlights yoga form and finesse and prepares yoga enthusiasts through training and coaching to compete.

Yoga Athlete Practice (YAP) is a weekly class at BYSJ. Cynthia Wehr, a national and international champion in 2007 and a USA Yoga competition judge, leads these sessions.

Yoga Athlete Practice is held at BYSJ every Friday afternoon. In this session, we will discuss what YAP class entails, from deepening your yoga practice to creating a routine.
We will go over the format, the rules, and what competing in Yoga Sport means – it’s for everyone, ages nine to 65 and up!

Q&A clips from our last one on 8/29!

Auditions were competitive. The heat was non-negotiable.

26 postures. 2 breathing exercises. And apparently… choreography.

Our next Poke and Prod is a few days away!

Sarah will teach from the podium while Michele and Matt walk around the room, poking and prodding.
This is about less talking and more doing, giving you a helping hand when and where you need it.
Come see what it can do for you – find your breakthrough!

Every school experiences seasons, and Bikram Yoga San Jose is no different. We’ve seen attendance trend lower overall. During this time, and as we await our new studio, we are trimming the schedule.

Beginning Monday, August 31, we are temporarily suspending the Monday-Friday noon classes and the Saturday and Sunday 6:30 pm classes.
We are not shrinking; we are concentrating to flourish more.

This pruning creates an opportunity. We see a broader momentum building around Bikram Yoga, so take a look at where we are investing:
👉 We are introducing more Poke & Prod classes
🪴 refreshing our facility
🤗 strengthening our first impression and contact with new students
🏡 and continuing to inspire and improve every aspect of what happens inside these walls.

We’re as committed to you as you have been to us.

Join us for our online Q&A
Saturday August 22 2pm-3:30pm on Zoom (visit event page for link)

Bikram Yoga, 90 minutes. Each and every one of us can do it – try the right way. The right way is the hard way, for physical vitality, mental clarity, emotional stability. It’s all about you. As Manali Banerjee says, do it from the heart, the right way. Bikram Yoga
