Title:
Maybe Bikram is Right?
Word Count:
403
Summary:
I laughed at his rhetoric, equally, as much as watching Jerry Seinfeld or Ray Ramano, do a stand up comedy routine. The man is pure entertainment and he has a point.
Article Body:
For some reason, I had the time to sit down and watch a little television, and as luck would have it, Bikram Choudhury was being interviewed on 60 Minutes Wednesday.
My wife, Marie and I don�t often get home at that time of the night, as we are usually closing up the wellness center, so this was fate and a bit of luck.
Our center does not have 105 degree Bikram classes or hot Yoga classes, but we are familiar with Bikram�s style and his wife�s many accomplishments. Rajashree Choudhury is a five-time winner of the All-India Yoga Championship competition.
I am not a Bikram fan, but I am not swayed by some of the anti-Bikram articles that work their way into the world of Yoga.
Before I touch some of the finer points of his interview, I must concede that he snatched the lime light with exuberance and now I know why some love him, while others don�t feel so warm and furry about him.
I laughed at his rhetoric, equally, as much as watching Jerry Seinfeld or Ray Ramano, do a stand up comedy routine. The man is pure entertainment and he has a point.
In reference to his style of yoga, he said � I don�t sell cheesecake, you know that.� The fact is anyone who visits a Bikram style Yoga class knows what they are getting into. How could you miss 105 degrees Fahrenheit?
More to the point, America is a country of extremes and there are estimates that only 10% of the population exercises regularly. While, another 35% of the population, drift in, and out, of exercise, depending upon the season, a fad, or a whim.
The remaining 55%, of America�s population, have taken a pledge to avoid exercise at all costs. Maybe the �couch potatoes� can only grasp the concept of a �kick in the pants.�
Some people need a drill instructor personality and as Bikram would say, �torture chamber� to understand Yoga. America made him the �Guru of the Stars,� and he understands public relations. Let�s give credit, where credit is due. If you love Yoga and missed this interview, see if you can catch the re-run.
There is a strange need, on a massive scale, for �stern but loving parent� type teachers in Yoga classes. Now if you�ll excuse me, I am about to organize the Extremely Hot Navy Seals Power Yoga Boot Camp.
