Bikram Yoga: The Guru Behind Hot Yoga Shows the Way to Radiant Health and Personal Fulfillment by Bikram Choudhury
Bikram, the "hot yoga" program, has been heating up the yoga world lately, and its founder probably has something to do with it: The outspoken, dramatic, and always controversial Bikram Choudhury has garnered a lot of attention with his version of hatha yoga that some yogis think unorthodox: In his classes, students are stuck in a room heated to at least 105 degrees doing a structured program of 26 asanas with a sergeant-like instructor--and they love it. Bikram Yoga will emulate...

If you practice in a studio or at home, you will want a good Yoga matt.
You can rent a Yoga mat at the studio, but if you're like me you would rather have your own. Some studios rent for $1 and others rent for $10. Depends on location. Lot's of options for a Yoga mat. You can get a basic foam matt for a few dollars or you can get a matt that is made of natural fibers and spend a little more. I have a few, as I like to let them dry thoroughly before my next session.
