THE BIKRAM YOGA TEAM

Our instructors completed Bikram's 500+ hour Teacher Training, have

 years of experience and are dedicated to helping you get the most out of your visit.

FARKY - Co-Owner

Farky is a certified Bikram Yoga teacher and graduated from Bikram’s College of India in 2002. Farky has a background in agronomy and massage therapy. As a senior instructor, he has supervised newly graduated Bikram Yoga teachers to help them hone their teaching skills and has trained competitors for Bikram Yoga Championships.

KATHY

Kathy started practicing Bikram yoga in San Diego in 2001. She moved to Dallas in 2007 and attended the Bikram teacher training in Acapulco in 2008.
Kathy has taught in upstate New York and Texas where she first met current Sarasota owners Farky and Timi.
In 2014, Kathy moved to Ohio to teach for Bikram Yoga Cleveland (BYC) and became the studio owner in 2015. In 2020, BYC, like many Bikram studios, became a casualty of COVID.
In 2021, Farky and Timi invited Kathy to teach for them in Sarasota, which she now happily calls home. When she is not teaching or practicing yoga, Kathy works as a catering manager at Temple Beth Sholom.

chris

Chris’ Bikram Yoga experience began with a class that resulted in a 66 consecutive day practice–that was after a “rough” first class he took after a challenging trail run when he was already dehydrated. The practice helped him get through some challenging periods and changed the direction of his life. Chris has been traveling the country practicing, teaching, and meeting people along the way who have improved their life through the practice of Bikram Yoga since 2012.

TIMI - Co-Owner

Timi is a certified Bikram Yoga teacher and graduated from Bikram’s College of India in 2002. She has been teaching in both the United States and Australia for 21 years. When she is not in the yoga studio teaching and practicing Bikram Yoga, Timi’s work specializes in the rehabilitation of patients with Cerebral Palsy, Stroke, and Parkinson’s disease using the Conductive Education method. She has over 25 years of experience working with individuals with neurological and mobility impairment.
