It is a privilege being a practitioner at Bikram Yoga Westlake Village. Having had the opportunity to participate in the 60 Day Challenge was a positive experience that helped me develop clearer focus and more consistent discipline. I not only benefited mentally and emotionally, but also physically. My chronic pain has diminished. I have continued to gradually lose unwanted pounds, and have improved my posture as well. I am making better dietary choices as I become healthier, too. I also enjoyed the camaraderie of the Challenge. It was great to be participating with others.

I am fortunate to be at Bikram Yoga Westlake Village under the guidance of Mahnaz and her dedicated instructors. All of them foster a supportive environment in which one can continue to make positive changes. I appreciate all of their ongoing efforts.

I started doing Bikram Yoga and about two months into it I heard about the 60 day challenge. I’ve never done yoga before and after two months I could already tell this was a life altering experience because it clearly benefits you physically and emotionally. I was hesitant but I signed up for the challenge and I absolutely loved it. Every day I felt myself getting stronger and stronger and I lost about 25 pounds during this challenge. Getting to class was never a chore and I looked forward to every day. Mahnaz simply put it as it’s just like showering and brushing your teeth everyday, you just do it. It really was that simple and now that the challenge is over I plan on getting in at least 5 to 6 classes a week. The more I go the stronger I get physically along with the benefits of having a calm mind and better practice. The benefits you get from this class follow you into your home and work life impacting you and others in a positive way. Mahnaz and her staff are great and I will be a life long member!

My daughter started me in the practice of Bikram Yoga in April, knowing that this practice would change my life. It sounds all very dramatic but it is dramatic. Having sustained lots of injuries through my life, at forty-seven, I found I was losing my life force due to chronic, debilitating pain. I promptly did the 60 day challenge this summer as recommended by Mahnaz for new students. Boy was this amazing and a transformative experience. My neuropathy in my arm, shoulder and neck has disappeared, and my body and mind are going through systematic recovery every day.

Westlake Bikram under Mahnaz' direction is the best studio. Because all of the teachers take a personal interest in our progress, we are all well cared for and directed.I am so grateful to have found a group of teachers and a community of people so passionate about this practice. We are so beautifully trained in this practice where accuracy is critical.

Thank you Mahnaz and everyone at Westlake Village Bikram Yoga. I look forward to decades of this treat.

I want to thank you for all that you do to contribute to the health and well being of those brave enough to endeavor into Bikram. It has made a world of difference getting back into my practice. My health has improved tremendously and my energy while in grad school/doing the balancing act of life has increased. Your studio is the by far the best studio I have seen and the sincere support you and your instructors provide differentiates you from all others. I am both appreciative and committed.

In my only 3 months of Bikram, I have seen many places and been with many teachers (because of my travel, I go to wherever there is a Bikram place), but I can tell you that you have the cleanest, nicest and most welcoming facility and you are just the best, most dedicated and inspiring teacher of all, hands down (and knees locked).

I have been practicing Bikram Yoga for eight years and have found the accomplishment of doing Bikram Yoga tremendously rewarding. This yoga has given me an enhanced sense of well being and harmony and has benefited me both physically and mentally. I feel relief from spine pain, have gained more flexibility in my muscles and joints, and have greatly improved physical strength and endurance. This yoga makes me feel refreshed and energetic and makes my day go better. It quiets my mind, keeps me healthy and it just plain feels good.

I'm a 43 year old mom of two young children. I couldn't keep up if it wasn't for Bikram Yoga. I have practiced now consistently for 7 years. I have more patience, energy, and of course it keeps the weight off! Give it an honest try. It will change your life.

I started Bikram Yoga classes nearly three years ago when I hurt my back. I was stiff as a board with no yoga or Bikram Yoga experience whatsoever. I am fortunate to have started yoga under Mahnaz’s guidance. For beginners and advanced students alike, Mahnaz offers an excellent blend of high quality knowledge, guidance, instruction, compassion, and passion for the art and science of Bikram Yoga. Everyone, young or old, beginner or advanced, owes it to himself or herself to try Mahnaz’s Bikram Yoga classes. I did, and I’m better off for it.

I was so lucky to have had Mahnaz as my teacher in my very first Bikram class. After having done Bikram Yoga in several cities in the world (LA, Miami, NY, Madrid, Prague and more) she's still my favorite teacher!

Bikram Yoga has changed my life and Mahnaz has been a big part of that!! Her voice, cadence and instruction are silky smooth! Can’t wait for the next class!

-Scott G.

After years of hearing others talking about the wonders of yoga, I decided to try Bikram Yoga. I soon discovered that everything I’ve always heard about it was true. I feel the best I have felt in a long time and have more energy, more flexibility and strength; I feel healthier than ever! Practicing Bikram Yoga and having Mahnaz as my teacher have changed the way I sleep, eat and look.
