I was so happy that Bikram Yoga came to my area. I started Feb 28th 2009 and was gung ho! I wanted Bikram since I was losing my flexibility and desire to exercise. I was 59 at the time. I kept going but was inwardly discouraged about not being able to do the movements and the pain involved.
I signed up for monthly payments taken out of my account but that did not prevent me from stopping a regular routine. I feel so discouraged being older and unable to do the movements, overweight and usually the only one of a different culture.
I was glad to find this site and realize that others are having similar problems. With your encouragement and that of the instructors I will pick myself up, dust myself off and be regular again.
