The Bikram studio in Milwaukee is wonderful, brand new, with 2 yoga rooms. The studio is owned by Bron Gacki who was at my teacher training in Hawaii. Mary Jarvis has been teaching Bikram Yoga for many years and is very highly respected in our yoga world. She taught the 8 am class before she presented her seminar. She took us through all the backward bending postures. She had had a serious car accident a few years ago, and used Bikram yoga, with extra emphasis on the backward bending postures, to heal herself, to heal her spine (I think she had 5 herniated discs among other injuries). Her surgeon wanted to operate, but couldn't give her any reassurance that the surgery would help. It took her 2 very patient years, but she did it.
I consider myself very fortunate to have had the opportunity to participate in this seminar.
