    be careful with your knees in bikram. I had one right weak knee which I accidently banged into a door and then did bikram yoga everday. It wore the patella and loosened it and know I have to wear a brace. I may have pulled a ligament in fixed firm pose. Not sure what happended but bikram yoga does push you to a level where you can accidenlty over do it.. and much of hte postures grind knees so becareful and I softness in the patella too so it may be patella injury (Chondromalacia Patellae. I was told to do some quads to strengthen the muscle/liagments. but it sucks for me because now I can’t do the yoga for awhile..Vinsaya yoga is flow yoga might be better on your knees.

    Hello – be careful doing bikram with weak knees. I had one right weak knee and now my patella is loose and I have to wear a brace. I may have pulled a ligament during fixed firm pose. I did not know this. Now, I can’t doing the yoga until it heals.. which will be sometime:(
