Student Testimonials
… “But there is something magic about how you feel after a few Bikram Yoga classes. I remember going back every day for six weeks because of how I felt. I just felt so HAPPY from the inside out… It is like science how it heals you.”
… “ My experience with the yoga is it teaches you about life. There is no easy fix. As Bikram says, "The hard way is the right way". Bikram's Yoga is so working for me and I'm getting results I never dreamed possible. When I started at BYWE in August I was continually having to take Super Strength Ibuprofen for pain just to get through "a day at the office" sitting in a forward bend (at a computer). As I got back into the hot room, I instantly started to feel relief from the pain… I am so grateful for Bikram Yoga and BYWE.”

“I started studying Bikram yoga in August 2008. At that point I was in a low point both physically and emotionally. I had hurt my ankles and hips by doing a regular high impact workout without stretching. Some days I could not walk without limping and my Achilles were so painful that they couldn't be touched. My job was also causing me emotional strife.
I have finished marathons, climbed mountains and was Commando in the Army. I was used to hard work and being physical. I was surprised that Bikram was both so easy and so hard of a workout. I enjoy the internal challenge and the chance to rest my mind for 90 minutes.
Going to Bikram Yoga West Edmonton is usually the highlight of my day."

“I have been involved in 3 car accidents, through no fault of my own. As a result, I have suffered severe whiplash, a torn rotator cuff, T.M.J., a broken breast-bone, knee trauma and fibromyalgia. I've had cortisone injections, trigger-point injections, physiotherapy, acupuncture, I.M.S., chiropractic, and last but not least, heavy doses of drug therapy including oxy-codone (Percocet)!
During the challenge I started to notice that my pain was diminishing. I cut my drug-doses in half and some days I needed no medication at all. I can say with all honesty that Bikram is the only thing I've tried since 1996 that has given me perfect pain relief.
Thank God for Bikram Yoga. I only wish that I would have stumbled upon it 13 years ago, after my first car accident.

“Since I started yoga, I changed my workout routine to run twice a week and do yoga 3-4 times a week. My running buddies were worried about my training falling off, but I stayed with this for 2 months and ran a personal best in the Vancouver Marathon…”
“One of the most interesting benefits has been my capacity to recover from long training runs. Usually after a 25 to 30 km run I am moving pretty slowly the next day. With Bikram I find that I recover quickly and am ready to go the next day.”
