Bikram
Yoga is the practice of Yoga postures and breathing exercises within
a room heated to 105 degrees and 50% relative humidity.
The spatial organization of Bikram Yoga Davenport
celebrates the procession of movement along a full depth gallery.
One enters the classroom through a “red hot” portal.
In contrast to the hot room, adjoining spaces are finished and lighted
to invoke feelings of coolness and quiet introspection. Sheer draperies
rustle with air movement, the result of intensive HVAC requirements.
A large window at the farthest end of the gallery
reveals the unspoiled Texas Hill Country beyond. Students part with
“Namasté”.
