Richmond Success at UK Yoga Championships

Our school enjoyed another successful year at the 2011 UK Yoga Asana Championships. Thirteen students from Richmond entered the championships and trained hard for many months in preparation. Kristin retained her title and Lisa Horgan came Joint 2nd.

Kristin has decided not to compete at the Internationals this year in June but Lisa will be heading to LA to represent the UK.

BYR Becomes CarbonNeutral®

We've talked about doing this for a long time but this year we have finally gotten around to doing something about it and have been accredited as a CarbonNeutral® company.

We now offset our carbon footprint by sponsoring a project to capture the volatile greenhouse gas methane from a managed landfill site.

We're not absolutely certain but we believe that we may be the first Bikram Yoga studio in the world to be accredited with this status.

Matt and Kristin at the International Yoga Championships

There was a great buzz around the studio in February as our UK Champions, Matt Farci and Kristin Bergman, travelled to LA to represent the UK (and our little studio!) at the International Yoga Asana Championship.

Many of our students stayed up until past 3am to watch Kristin who performed beautifully and came 16th, just 3 points off the Top 10, in a competition of very high standard.

Matt qualified through into the Top 10 and to Finals Day where he came 5th. Incredible performance. Congratulations, Matt!

We have begun training preparations for this year's UK Championships. A group of students are already keenly doing their "homework". If you have an interest in competing or want to know more about what this yoga championship is about, speak to Johnny or Kristin.

Haiti Earthquake Appeal raises £4,440

Thank you to everyone who donated to the DEC Haiti Earthquake Appeal at the studio and online. Students raised £2,220 for the appeal. As pledged, Bikram Yoga Richmond has matched your donations and sent a cheque to the DEC for £2,220, making the total raised through the studio to a wonderful £4,440! Thank you again, and well done.

Richmond Win at UK Yoga Championships

Our school enjoyed incredible success at this year's UK Yoga Asana Championships. Twelve students from Richmond entered the championships and trained hard for many months in preparation. All that hard work paid off when Kristin Bergman and Matt Farci, both representing Richmond, won the Women's and Men's Division. And it didn't stop there, Sue Gosling from our school came 3rd in the Women's and Cassiano Garcia came 3rd in the Men's.

Good luck to Kristin and Matt who are now training towards representing the UK at the International Championships in Los Angeles in February.
