Bikram Yoga (Alexandria)
Our insider tells us that this studio gets pretty hot. Good news. It's also convenient to the Van Dorn Metro stop (blue line), about a 3-4 minute walk. Just leave the metro area and head to the right. It's not far and at the back end if the industrial park type building structure.
