I'm thinking about trying some Yoga to help me with my back and to open up my hips. Since coming back from a very serious leg/foot injury, my back has been giving me a lot of trouble. Has anyone tried the Hot Yoga (Bikram or Moksha)? Thanks. :)

My Girlfriend is an instructor and it has a lot of strong ties to anatomy, muscular energy and science. It is the 10th Planet of Yoga in my opinion.
This is what most of us in Rochester have been practicing.
i say do it all. nothing wrong with the variety
Louis, Check out the link, It helped me loosen up a lot. My recovery improevd and gained back some range of motion.Quote:

I did Bikram a few times. I loved it, but they dont offer it down here. But I would recommend it.
yeah bikram is great. I like doing it in the morning as Ill feel limber all day.
i have a solid ipad app i use in the morning and after training all different styles depending on my time and energy levels and i just order from budo's the Ginastica dvd that is supose to help out alot

i wish i could improve my agility and flexibility , i been stretching for quite some time now but have hit a sticking point and my left knee i could never get it to where it needs to be , as i do some basic stretches its like the knee is gonna snap , i don't know what to do , this is why i stay pinned on the bottom most of the time
Thanks guys. I checked out the Anusara Yoga and there is actually an Anusara instructor in Montreal. Unfortunately, her schedule is very limited and I wouldn't be able to make her classes. Any other suggestions as to the best Yoga for opening up my hips and helping my lower back?
Rebel Yoga is the 10th Planet of Yoga! Then again...85% of my training was in Anusara. LOL.Quote:

I finally found something that might be what I'm looking for. It's called Yin Yoga. They focus on slow stretches of the connective tissue in the hip area, which is exactly what I need.
Yin Yoga is basically restorative, which is one HUGE component of Rebel Yoga. Its good stuff.Quote:

Jason, Just read your OTM interview...it was great! When do you expect to release those DVDs you mentioned? Are you going to put more Rebel Yoga videos on the youtube?Quote:
