Earlier this year we had the absolute pleasure of sweating our butts off for a commercial portrait session with Meghan and her team at Bikram Yoga Barrie. They are an amazing new Hot Yoga studio located downtown Barrie, Ontario. When we met Meghan, we were immediately impressed by with her studio. Her gorgeous space is enough to make any one leave the YMCA yoga classes. Bikram Yoga Barrie is an intensely positive atmosphere. The sense of community and drive to help each person who takes their classes achieve their goals is admirable. If you are unaware of what Bikram Yoga is, and what the benefits are to people of all ages, body types, and fitness levels, then be sure to visit their website. Here is our favourite explanation about the benefits of Hot Yoga straight from Meghan’s site.
A regular Bikram Yoga practice will change your life in the most wonderful ways, and can help: weight loss, stress, anxiety, depression, insomnia, immune deficiencies, skin conditions, chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, high blood pressure, arthritis, joint pain, chronic back pain, scoliosis, spinal injury, high cholesterol, heart disease, poor circulation, diabetes, hypoglycaemia sciatica, menstrual cycles, menopause, accident recovery, injury & pain, endocrine function, metabolism and emotional healing.
Yoga is not an enigma, a religion, or a fad. Yoga is a science developed over 5000 years ago and is unrivalled as a means of improving body health and flexibility, creating peace of mind and absence of stress. But there are no promises of instant gratification. Be prepared to work hard. Be prepared to make demands of yourself and to sweat. The more you put into the class, the more you will get out of it. It is an awesome journey.Bikram Yoga Barrie
It has been our pleasure getting to know Meghan and the team at Bikram Yoga Barrie. Just last month we did a 2nd photo shoot with Meghan & Laura. Something a little more creative to add to their website. We would also like to thank our amazing assistant for all the help during the powder shoot, and being willing to get just as messy as the two girls did. Thank you Matt, We really appreciated your help.
Enjoy these images!
