From February 1-14, purchase a red Coco Gram heart for $3 at the front desk for your teacher, your friend, your loved one - and write a special message to them on the red heart and post in the hallway - the recipient can redeem at the front desk for their Vita Coco coconut water during Valentine's Day week and keep their red heart. And be sure to check the hearts in the hallway everyday to see if you have received a Coco Gram!

February Students of the month Ragi and Johnny Bhatt, met in India, and after knowing each other for only 45 minutes, knew they would be married, and are now going on 26 years of marriage! The Bhatt's moved to the U.S. from India, and have been in Arizona since 2001. Ragi and Johnny have been practicing at BYPV for 7 years, and 6 years, respectively.
Ragi was referred by her friend right after an annual Super Bowl party at the Bhatt's house, 7 years ago, for the pain in her knees, and a thyroid imbalance. When husband, Johnny, began feeling his cervical spine vertebrae pinching a nerve causing tingling, numbness & pain in his left arm, the medical community wanted to inject him with epidurals and perform surgery... instead wife Ragi recommended joining her at Bikram Yoga - and that was 6 years ago.
When asked why they've continued practicing, they replied "we find it very refreshing to our mind, body, and soul." For Ragi, yoga serves to control her weight, balance her thyroid and keep the pain in her knees in check. For Johnny, yoga has eliminated the numbness and tingling in his left arm, and he has not had to have any repairs or other treatments to his cervical spine.
Both Ragi and Johnny say their favorite posture is Savasana (Corpse Pose), but Ragi enjoys the challenge of Padahastasana (Hands-to-Feet Pose), and Johnny enjoys the 360 degree backbend of Ustraasana (Camel Pose) because it feels different every time.
The two of them attend every Wednesday nite together at the 6:30 PM class - this is their once a week Bikram date nite.
