LOL! The “itunes plunge” that saulgirl refers to I’m pretty sure is that she purchased Bikram’s Audio Class on iTunes. At the moment Gabrielle’s class is not on iTunes, but you can get both mp3, CDs and even a “MegaPack” with a Home Practice Guide here:

And yes, it’s safe to practice without the heat – obviously we think the addition of heat adds further benefits (perhaps mostly cardiovascular). What isn’t safe is practicing with poor alignment – this can even worsen certain problems – so we advise anyone practicing at home to try to get some studio experience first so at least they get the basics of the poses. A mirror is also important for self-correction.
You can use the pose photo gallery on this site (https://www.hotyogadoctor.com/index.php/site/categories-poses/) and also ask questions here in the forum – we’re here to help!
