Bikram Yoga College of India

Love the studio and the teacher; I wish that she would regularly remind other students to breathe through their noses and not their mouths. On Sundays when it is crowded, some people don’t brush their teeth – and it’s horrible to smell their breath when they breathe out. I wonder – can’t she hear them?.
Also, bikram isn’t supposed to be competitive, but when Julia praises regulars (she often will fixate on one or two people and praise them over and over) in a class, she by nature sets up competition because it feels as though those of us others who are trying just as hard aren’t getting the «attagirls» and «attaguys». Praise ALL the class, and don’t spend a lot of time instructing beginners. And leave the individual compliments till after class.

Julia is a compassionate, knowledgeable teacher and I loved her class! I got a lot of individualized, specific feedback and it helped my practice a lot.
I’ve been to many other Bikram studios all over the country, and this one is not as comfortable or luxurious as some. However, it’s really clear that Julia loves the environment and she’s doing her part to keep Flagstaff’s beautiful and safe.
I’m looking forward to my next visit.

Julia is a patient and knowledgeable instructor. If you are going for the first time, she helps you along and it’s also a great studio for those that are experienced. Warm and caring atmosphere where the instructor takes the time to learn everyone’s name. She also is very committed to getting updates on the Bikram practice and adding them to her instruction and practice.
