About This Class
Bikram Yoga is a therapeutic hatha practice: a fixed, unchanging sequence of 26 postures and 2 breathing exercises, developed by Bikram Choudhury to promote optimum health and maximum function. The order is deliberate - it works every muscle, tendon, ligament, joint and internal organ while moving fresh oxygenated blood to 100% of the body.
The benefits go deeper than the physique: this is a healing practice for people with chronic pain, and preventative medicine for everyone else. Regular practice improves strength, flexibility and balance, supports stress relief and weight management, and helps prevent illness and injury. Most of the work happens at a cellular level - calm, consistent practice is what matters.
At Ubud Yoga Centre we teach only the original, traditional Bikram sequence - one unchanging routine, taught by certified Bikram instructors with 10 - 22+ years of experience, so every class stays safe and consistent.
What to Expect
- The routine: the same 26+2 sequence every class - full Classic 90' or the shortened Express 60'.
- The heat: 40.6 °C with 40% humidity warms the muscles for deeper, safer stretching.
- No inversions: the traditional sequence skips headstands and shoulder stands to protect the neck and spine.
- Real-time correction: large mirrors let you check and fix your alignment as you go.

Common Questions
Is Bikram suitable for beginners?
Yes. The sequence is the same every class, the instructor guides you, and you work at your own level. Express 60' is a softer entry point.
Classic 90 or Express 60 - what differs?
Both cover the same 26+2 sequence. Classic runs the full 90 minutes; Express condenses it to 60 minutes in the same heated room.
How hot is the room?
40.6 °C (105 °F) with about 40% humidity on our verified studio readings. Drink water before and during class.
