Sorry for bad english but i will try my best.

I guess its a lot of us out there that are doing yoga in “normal” room temeratures.
It would be nice with good advices to us what to think of and what to be careful with.

What postures to be more careful with, and more…
What about the times in postures? The same or shorter? longer?

Of course i take it more easy.
Goes in to the postures more slowly…

Personally I like to take it slower in colder rooms. The muscles take longer to stretch out when they are cold. But I don’t think it’s bad for you. In fact, it’s probably good to do yoga in a variety of conditions, whether hot or cold. A bit of a warm-up routine that gets your heart rate up is a good way to start when your muscles are cold.

ok…I found a interview with Tony Sanchez in Yogajournal.

“as long as a person is consistent with the practice, outside temperature doesn’t make that much difference”, according to Tony Sanchez, former Bikram Yoga teacher and founder of the San Francisco Yoga Studio.

“A person performing the Bikram poses in a lower temperature has to move much slower to avoid possible injury,” he says, “but as long as you move at a pace where you’re stretching without straining, then you can receive 100 percent of the benefits.”

Here is the link to the artikle.

So maybe everything is the same in low temperature, just slower…
