Bikram Choudhury, creator of Bikram Yoga, will speak at Rice University's Stude Hall from 1- 4 p.m. Birkram Yoga, a popular form of hot yoga performed in a copyrighted series of 26 hatha yoga postures done in a hot (105 degrees Fahrenheit or greater), is now practiced in 43 states and 35 countries. During the lecture, Choudhury will focus on sharing the  benefits of a life devoted to helping people train their bodies in order to bring stillness to their minds so that they can “knock on the door of the spiritual.”
