Bikram Yoga Britomart

This is a great bikram studio. With two yoga rooms, there are many classes throughout the day. The premises are clean and well kept. They also offer a mat and towel service, and there is some yoga apparel for sale. I would recommend trying out the different instructors since they do differ in style, and you might finding some more soothing than others. Also they validate parking so it is $ 3. I don’t understand why other say the lockers are not secure, all you have to do is bring a lock and put it on the provided lockers. Isn’t this how all lockers work?
Now to address some of the things that people might find negative with Bikram:
1.the smell of the rooms: bikram rooms are carpeted in order to avoid slipping due to all the sweating, so if you have ppl practicing yoga for 90min at 38 degrees what do you think happens??? The smell is not this particular studio, it is standard for all bikram places.
2. Bikram is hard! This is not something you should just try to do on a whim. Do you research, talk to the instructors before you start, do a hot yoga class first and see how your body reacts before you do bikram. Many people just show up and think «oh it’s just yoga». Well running is just running but you don’t do a marathon before you can run a 10K.
3. If you feel nauseous or uncomfortable during the class, then lay on your mat and breath. Going in and out of the room is not good for you and very disruptive for the rest. If I can find one fault in the staff here is that they don’t drill this enough into new students.
Ultimately, some will like Bikram some not so much. IMO this studio offers a great Bikram practice.

I took advantage of their 30 days offer — which was very cheap. I found the staff friendly — but lacked any real «care» on filling in the forms I noted I had a recent shoulder injury, which they did ask me about — the only advice «take it easy» — as someone who has done minimal yoga I would have expected some instruction on what that means…
the lockers are not secure… but the facilities are clean and quite fitting for being a yoga studio.
The location is great if you live locally or have a car space –but closest car park charge over $ 21 for the time you would need to attend… could make this an expensive option.

Sitting here with 15 or so people’s belongings (lucky I’m not a thief) waiting for an hour while the instructor won’t let me out of the building (it’s locked). As a complete beginner I was quite confused and they proved to be entirely unhelpful, even rude after I had to leave the class (I exercise 3 times a week typically but this was difficult some nicety would have been much appreciated). Wouldn’t have cared if the staff were friendly though. My advice is try somewhere else.

Beautiful studio in the middle of the city. Namaste!

I could not rate this place more highly. Stepping in from the bustle of Auckland city’s Custom Street you immediately feel a sense of zen, the dimmed lighting and dark wood floors. The ascent to a better self is only two flights of stairs away and I was blown away by the interiors. You feel so relaxed, a type of Bohemian luxe, the Moroccan furniture and ikat prints make you want to just chill.
The classes themselves are liberating, a place to come to let go of everything and just focus on yourself. Each time you come to class you become stronger, both mentally and physically, Bikram is one of the best things you can do for yourself I think. Each of the instructors have slightly different styles, I love Tyronne and his bongo!
Rebeckh the owner of Bikram Yoga Britomart is such a lovely person, just wanting to help others enhance their lives through yoga, if you go often enough you’ll see her in the odd class too, taking not teaching. The classes are all beginners, anyone could do and would benefit from taking Bikram yoga. I started going more regularly in the last month and noticed a huge difference in my body, flexibility, posture, muscle tone, state of mind. I couldn’t recommend it more highly.
