—— For Bikram Yoga Practitioners and Teachers —— Including People Who Have Never Done Bikram Yoga (learn it correctly from the start)
There Is More to Bikram Yoga Than Any One Class Could Ever Teach You.
You can know the Dialogue.
Practice the Sequence for years.
Teach hundreds—or thousands—of classes.
Or want to try Bikram Yoga for the first time.
And still hear something that changes how you understand a Posture, an instruction, or the Practice as a whole.
Over decades of studying, practicing, teaching and learning directly from the Source, Jim Kallett accumulated something that could never have been preserved in the Dialogue alone.
The context. The explanations. The individual observations. The stories. The relationship between the Postures. And the understanding behind what Bikram taught.
Real Bikram Yoga — Unchanged from the Source brings that accumulated Knowledge together so you can explore the Practice more deeply—and keep returning to it as your own Practice evolves.
Bikram taught in the room: Through the Dialogue. Official Teacher Trainings. Seminars and Posture Clinics. Stories. Demonstrations. Observations. And individual moments with students and Teachers.
Much of what was learned depended upon being there to hear it.
And when Knowledge is passed from person to person over decades, something can change.
A detail can survive while the reason behind it disappears.
The words may remain while the context gets lost.
Not because anyone intended to change the Yoga.
It can simply happen over time.
That’s why preserving Bikram Yoga requires more than preserving the words.
It requires preserving the understanding behind them.
WHY JIM KALLETT?
For decades, Jim practiced, taught, observed and learned directly from the Source.
He attended his first Official Bikram Yoga Teacher Training in 1997, where he became Certified.
Then he kept going back.
Jim eventually served as Senior Faculty at more than 50 Official Bikram Yoga Teacher Trainings and Teacher Re-Certifications, and was sent out by Bikram to teach Posture Clinics and Seminars worldwide.
But perhaps most importantly—Jim paid attention.
To the stories Bikram told.
The explanations behind the Dialogue.
Why one instruction came before another.
How the individual Postures fit into the Practice as a whole.
And the Context of what Bikram would say to different students—why something he told one student wasn’t necessarily what he told another.
“Jim is probably the most knowledgeable person I know outside of Bikram, who can articulate the knowledge of the Bikram Yoga system and Bikram’s original 26 Postures. If you think that there’s gonna be a limit of his knowledge, he’s gonna just keep blowing you away for years and years and years. He has an amazing talent of remembering the stories that Bikram has talked about, the details of the Practice, and the fact that he’s just so on point with the Dialogue and the observations. It’s truly inspiring.”
— Brad Colwell, Certified Bikram Yoga Teacher, 25 Years
“I don’t know how Jim does it, but he just knows how to push us harder. He has knowledge. And he cares. He cares about students. Jim doesn’t miss anything, because he cares. There are not that many teachers who are like Jim.”
— Hiroko Adams, 15-Year Practitioner and Certified Bikram Yoga Teacher
Since July, 2025 Jim has been providing here all of this accumulated Knowledge of Bikram Yoga, working to preserve, present and share it.

LISTEN. PRACTICE. NOTICE. RETURN.
The Knowledge Is Meant to Go Back Into Your Practice.
You don't need to learn everything at once.
You don't need to remember every detail.
Sometimes you hear one thing differently.
You take it into class.
You notice something in a Posture you hadn't noticed before.
You understand an instruction differently because now you understand more about what's behind it.
Then you Practice again.
Listen. Practice. Notice. Return.
That's what the Knowledge is for—to understand more about Yourself, as you Practice the Yoga.
“So much yoga coaching I’ve experienced is not practical. This was extremely practical. I could apply the knowledge I got from Jim to my practice that day.”
— Katie Fiorucci, Bikram Yoga Practitioner
“Listening to Jim talk about it has really clarified a lot of things about the Practice and about the Postures. You sit down. You watch a video, you take notes. And then you bring it with you into the hot room and apply it. It’s that simple.”
— Jason McCullough, Bikram Yoga Practitioner
“It totally changed my practice. When I’m doing something different [than what I’m hearing in the Dialogue] the Posture is completely different. The thought process is completely different. And the result creates a different body structure and dynamic. [Understanding this] changed all the rest of the Postures for me.”
— Scott Somers, Certified Bikram Yoga Teacher
“With the original knowledge falling away, people don’t know what they’re missing. This Knowledge of Bikram Yoga is the way to start to build that knowledge base up again. As a teacher, continuing education is vital. Aside from visiting Bikram at his Teacher Training in Thailand, there’s just not that much support.”
— Lauren Hendricks, Certified Bikram Yoga Teacher
