HOT Yoga Tips Why the Standing Series Sets the Tone Bikram Vs Barkan
Hi Everyone,
In my latest YouTube video, Hot Yoga Tips: Why the Standing Series Sets the Tone, I break down something we often take for granted...why we always begin with the Standing Series, and how it fundamentally prepares us for the Floor.
I also compare Bikram and Barkan side by side, highlighting how similar they are, where they differ, and how the specific combination of Standing and Floor postures defines our overall approach to Hatha Yoga.
This isn’t about one being better...it’s about understanding intention, sequencing, and why the order matters for strength, safety, and long-term practice. If you’ve ever wondered why we do what we do, this one’s for you.
LOVE & LIGHT,
JIMMY
