Bikram's Yoga College of India, San Diego, has announced that Bikram

Choudhury will present a seminar on yoga philosophy and practice as a

benefit event. Choudhury believes that " You use the body as a medium

to bring the mind back to the brain, creating a perfect marriage

between body and mind. Then you can knock the door to the spirit. "

Choudhury, the man Deepak Chopra says " is doing a great service to

yoga, " will lecture on Yoga Philosophy (philosophy of human life),

describe in detail the Bikram's Beginning Hatha Yoga Class with a 5

hour Posture Clinic, and finish with a Yoga class. Choudhury's most

recent book " Bikram Yoga: The Guru Behind Hot Yoga Shows the Way to

Radiant Health and Personal Fulfillment " was released in 2007.

" In Bikram's Yoga Class, you stretch muscles, tendons, and ligaments

safely and effectively, increase circulation, and balance all the

systems of the body, " states Jim Kallett, Director of Bikram's Yoga

College of India, San Diego. It is a specific sequence of poses and

breathing exercises that integrate body, mind, and spirit, and help

relieve a variety of afflictions - from stress, insomnia, arthritis,

and back pain to more serious chronic diseases. In the U.S. since

1973, Bikram Yoga has become the fastest growing yoga with over 1,700

yoga schools and 5,000 certified teachers worldwide.

A three-time winner of the All India National Yoga Championship in

his youth, Choudhury has taught world leaders, sports figures, and

celebrities, including Indira Gandhi, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar,

McEnroe, Serena , Quincy , and Raquel Welch. Countless

others practice Bikram's Yoga.

This is Choudhury's first seminar in So. California since 2001. All

proceeds will benefit an endowment for Ghosh's College of Physical

Culture and Yoga, in Calcutta, India, where Choudhury learned yoga

from his guru Bishnu Charan Ghosh, the most influential yoga master

of the 20th century and the first to scientifically document yoga's

ability to cure chronic physical ailments and heal the body.
