Choose any class above. It takes about two minutes, and your 21 days start with it.
Arrive 15 minutes early
We're upstairs at 185 Oxford Street. Tell your teacher it's your first class: they'll show you around and help you pick a good spot.
Bring water and a towel
A big bottle of water, a large towel and light clothes. Your mat is free for your first class, and towels are $2 to hire. There are showers and lockers.
Do what you can
Your teacher talks you through every posture. Sit or lie down whenever you need to. Trying the posture is the posture.
Come back within 2 or 3 days
Your body adapts remarkably fast. Class two is often the hardest, and most newcomers feel at home by their third.

Book your first classWhat newcomers say
“As a beginner to Bikram yoga, I felt completely at home thanks to the very welcoming studio owners and supportive teachers.”
Michael B., Google review
“No matter what your skill level (mine is very basic but many are advanced) they all are patient with you.”

“Great teachers make the 90min sweat-a-thon feel like 87 minutes! Great vibes and you feel amazing after.”

Questions newcomers ask
Am I too out of shape for this?
No. Every class has first-timers, and people in their 60s and 70s practise beside lifelong athletes. You only do what you can, when you can: trying the posture is the posture. If you can breathe, you can do this.
What if I hate the heat?
Most people dislike the idea of the heat and love how they feel afterwards. The room is 40°C with 40% humidity: warm, but controlled. Sit or lie down whenever you need to, or step out for a moment. Your body adapts remarkably fast, and Inferno Hot Pilates (35°C) is included in your pass too, with Yin (unheated) from 8 November.
I've never done yoga before. Will I be lost?
Not at all. Bikram is the same 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises every class, and your teacher talks you through every one. There's nothing to memorise and no flow to keep up with. Most newcomers feel at home by their second or third class.
What if I have an injury or health condition?
Let your teacher know before class and they'll give you modifications. Many of our long-term members first came to us with an old injury and work around it with care. If you're pregnant, recovering from surgery, or on heart medication, check with your GP first.
Do I need to book?
Yes, please book online before you come. Weekend mornings are our busiest classes, so book those a day or two ahead.
Are there showers and lockers?
Yes: showers, lockers and changing rooms. Bring a large towel, or hire one at the desk for $2.
What if I can't make it to many classes in the 21 days?
That's fine. Many newcomers notice a difference within a few classes. There are 27 hot classes a week, from 6am on weekdays to 7:30pm most evenings, plus weekend mornings and afternoons, so something should fit your week. The pass costs less than three casual classes, so it pays for itself by your third class.
What if I don't feel any benefits?
Most people feel something within the first week, often better sleep or more energy. If you've come three or more times a week and something still isn't working, come and have a chat with us and we'll help you work out why.
