text: I decided to try the Bikram Yoga Studio in Phoenix and I have to say I am very happy with it This location is very conveniently located in Uptown Plaza next to AJs Right off the light rail too I have been going for about a month now My first class was with MJ who I think is awesome In fact all the instructors I have had while all different are pretty good in their own way They are great about keeping to the dialog and explaining the postures and their benefits They make sure to keep you reaching for more and I have noticed a major improvement in myself nnThe studio is a good size but I will say I would prefer more studio space and less lobby space since the classes can be pretty large at times It is not a deal breaker by any means I think the cleanliness is pretty good I know past reviews have said it is not which makes me think they may have done something to improve because I do not feel it is bad at all But this is a Bikram studio so not sure what people are expecting People are sweating non stop all day in there For that alone it is amazing how clean it is nnI like that they supply a cleaner towels to clean your mat after class This is handy and probably helps them make sure the class will have clean mats attendingnnThe mens locker room which is all I can review is actually very nice It is clean a good size and it has nice cubes for your belongingsnnIf I had one compliant it would not really be about the studio itself but more about some of the new people attending I wish they would give the new students upon signing up a run down of Bikram etiquette I have heard far too many people chatting in the studio before the instructor comes in Many students use the time before class to quietly meditate and center themselves as they prepare for class With Groupons coming out there tend to be a lot of first timers so it is important they know the etiquette before they enter the room Also leaving the room should be for emergencies only We are all dizzy and want to vomit get past it Once a girl walked into class well into our second set of breathing exercises That was a little shocking since in most studios that is a huge No No When the class starts if you are lateNo class for you nnIts a great feeling and I am glad I have found something I really enjoy doing I am always looking forward to my next class
