Bikram's HOT Yoga Wellington
Bikram yoga is the original 'hot yoga'. A unique series of 26 hatha yoga postures and two breathing exercises practiced in a heated room. You systematically move fresh, oxygenated blood to 100% of your body, restoring all systems to healthy working order in every 90 minute class. Proper weight, muscle tone, vibrant good health and a sense of well being follows.

Dr Kanji was born and raised in Wellington and studied at Otago University and lately at Massey University. He is a pain specialist at Southern Cross Hospital in Newtown and is currently writing up his PhD thesis on what causes headache. He has performed a clinical trial on people who suffer from headache and will present his findings of this trial. He has written several articles, given a dozen conference presentations and writes a weekly newspaper column in Citylife newspapers called painless. Nearing completion is his book on the adrenaline nightmare aimed at helping people who suffer from these problems.
