Bikram yoga

Sweltering pose practice

Bikram yoga is a style of yoga practiced in a heated room, typically around 105°F with high humidity.

The sequence consists of 26 postures and two breathing exercises performed in the same order each session.

Named after its founder Bikram Choudhury, whose later scandals led some studios to rebrand as "hot yoga." I'm drenched after Bikram.
