I was visiting Valencia this January and felt like I needed to return to my practice after a…read moremonth-long break. I decided on this studio because of location; it was the closest to where I was staying. The studio is meticulously clean and absolutely smell-free. The reason could be that it is not carpeted, like most Bikram studios I've been to before. It has huge women's locker room with at least 3-4 shower cabins. Lockers also have keys you can use to lock your belongings during class. Mat and one towel is provided for free with each visit, which is super convenient. I tend to use my own gear when I'm not traveling, but this was a nice perk. Mats and towels were clean and in good shape. The studio and services are great all around, however, the highlight of each visit was the instructor- David. I don't speak Spanish well, but he made me feel very welcomed and comfortable in the hot room. He is very enthusiastic and motivating teacher! He provided some instructions in English, but it was really fun to listen to the dialog in Spanish. I will definitely return next time I am in Valencia.

Se trata de una serie de 26 de las 84 posturas clásicas del Hatha Yoga de Patanjali (considerado el padre de la yoga de hace 4,700 años). Bikram Yoga es una sesión de 90 minutos a 42° en la que se desarrollan 26 posturas (asanas) y dos ejercicios de respiración (pranayamas), adecuadas para todas las edades y niveles de habilidad. Estas 26 posturas mueven sistemáticamente sangre fresca y oxigenada a todo el cuerpo. Se trabajan todos los órganos, glándulas, tendones, ligamentos, huesos, todas las células de tu cuerpo, tus emociones, tu mente y tu espíritu. La sala en la que se practica está preparada para alcanzar los 42º grados y entre un 40 - 50% de humedad, idóneos para calentar los músculos. El calor ayuda a nuestro cuerpo a quemar la grasa más eficazmente, redistribuyéndola sobre la estructura muscular. Si te sobran kilos es normal bajar algunos centímetros en poco tiempo. Por ello las clases son impartidas en unas condiciones de temperatura y humedad elevadas, lo que favorece la sudoración de los asistentes. Mediante la sudoración se ayuda a la desintoxicación y eliminación de toxinas a través de nuestra piel, el órgano más grande del cuerpo En Bikram Yoga no existen niveles.

The gym itself is great, plenty of things to do. But I was there for the Spa treatment and what a…read moretreatment it was not. Firstly you needed to bring everything (Own towels, own sandals, own swimming cap (else you must pay 4euro extra), own locks, own water (or buy from vending machine) etc) as nothing is provided even for the price I paid. Any other Spa I would have gotten better. The thermal spa was small and noise, lots of shouting, screaming from other users. Not peaceful at all. Some of the water function did not work. The sauna was way too hot to be in there for longer than 30 second and the other Turkish hamman/roman baths wasn't even working/switched on! There was no staff to show you around the facilities (or lack of staff), nor was there drinking water provided and you had to work things out on your own. Of course, the pools look nothing like in the pictures. Next was the 1 hour massage which was the worst massage I've ever had. It's like the masseuses did not know what they were doing!! The oil was cold and slapped on your body, rubbed in like you would rub salt on a chicken. I asked the girls to make the massage stronger, they agreed, yet it was very weak, almost more like a pat on the back for 50min than a massage. The strokes were sharp, random and incomplete. It was not enjoyable and I was cold half way through it (after coming from the spa with wet bathing suit). I think there can be ALOT of improvements.
