Get ready for the annual 60 Day Challenge!
The 60 Day Challenge has started! Good luck to all our challengers! The challenge is to do 60 Bikram Yoga classes in the first 60 days of the year. Why? It’s a reset. And what better time than after the holidays when we tend to be taken so far from our daily activities, diet and exercise. Bikram Choudhury prescribes  60 consecutive days of yoga to anyone new to Bikram Yoga in order to reset their lives and to build their practice to full potential. Afterwards, practice no less then 3 times per week for great health and well-being. This year BYC’s annual 60 Challenge started on January 2nd and ends on March 1st. Prizes will be given to all that complete the challenge.

What better gift than the one of health and well-being?

Interested in joining a CSA thru BYC? 
The forms for Practically Organic, CSA are due Friday, February 3.  What is a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture)? In basic terms, a CSA consists of a community of individuals who pledge support to a farm operation so that the land becomes a community farm, sharing the risk and benefits of food production. Members in the CSA farm pledge in advance to cover the anticipated costs of the farm operation and farmer’s salary. In return, they receive shares in the farm’s bounty throughout the growing season, as well as satisfaction gained from reconnecting to the land.

WHAT IS IN IT FOR YOU: We are looking at a local CSA 38 week season which will run each year from early March to Mid-December.  Each week you will receive a hand-picked selection of vegetables harvested at peak ripeness delivered to BYC. They will include at least 5 to 10 different items each week in your share.

If you are interested please email us at: csa@bikramyogacolumbia.com.

KARMA CLASS on Sunday’s at 4 p.m.!

This is a regular Bikram Yoga class, but we open this class to donations. Since we started the Karma Class we have raised money for Nothing But Nets, saving lives in Sub-Saharan Africa by distributing mosquito nets to prevent the spread of malaria; Dreams for Kids Holiday Hope Party, the worlds largest holiday event for homeless and underprivileged children; purchased and distributed tents in Haiti as well as supporting several organizations helping with the earthquake relief effort; supported one of our students in the Susan G. Komen 3-Day for the Cure walk; supported LionAid, which works to protect the rare and endangered white lion in South Africa; and the Oblate Sisters of Providence, one of the oldest orders of Catholic nuns in the country, who have taken a vow of poverty in order to minister to women, children and the poor in the Baltimore area. The suggested minimum donation is $10, or you may use your membership for class or both!
