Episode 24 | Bikram: Yogi, Guru, Predator
from The Gist Project · host Marne and Chrissy
Bikram Yoga - no naps, no clothes, and zero chill. Mars briefly claims a hairline alliance with Bikram, but the similarities end there. Bikram styled himself as Yogi to the Stars, Yoga Champion of India, even an Olympic weightlifter - a résumé so fictional Moon & Mars could debunk it without standing up. What was real: verbal abuse, punishing heat, cult-adjacent communal living, and 3 a.m. Bollywood hand massages that feel less “wellness” and more “run.” The real twist? Bikram Yoga is still very much in business. Gross.Photography | Stacy Kron: https://stacykroncreative.com/ Art & Creative | Madison Harney, Nowen Creative: https://www.madisonharney.com/
