We are headed back into cult territory on this week’s episode as we talk about Bikram Choudhury and the hot yoga classes he brought to the US in the 1970s. It started out as the exciting new craze that attracted the Hollywood elite and transformed lives in ways no other exercise regimen had ever done. But what many didn’t know is that Bikram wasn’t exactly who he claimed to be and the yoga empire he was building around him was destined to crumble under his narcissistic and twisted ways. Many young women were sucked into his teacher trainings only to end up in a nightmare situation they would have never imagined. Listen now for all of the details on Bikram and his yoga cult.
