Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit our JustGiving page.

HORAAAAAY!!!!

Well, as you can see, we reached our first ambitious target of £3,500 and in doing so set a record for raising more money than we've EVER done before. Still with a few days to go to the event we decided to RAISE OUR TARGET to £4,500!! But then we DID THAT TOO!! So, we raised it for the 2nd time. This time, to a HUGE £5,500. And guess what? Thanks to the generous support of literally HUNDREDS of people we've raised our target AGAIN to £6,000

So this is it! The last big push on the very day our guys and girls are currently in a 40'C room doing their thing for charity. So PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE give generously and support these guys and the very worthwhile cause they're all doing it for. When we started this we thought £3,000 was going to be hard to get, but thanks to the amazing support and with a bit more help, we could now break the £6,000 mark! AMAZING!

A BIG HUGE MASSIVE thank-you to all the guys taking part who've pushed and promoted this event and managed to raise so much money for this great charity to help vulnerable children here in the U.K. This money will REALLY help change people's lives for the better.

BUT LETS NOT STOP!! Which is why we've raised the target!

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE keep giving all you can and support this awesome BIKRAM challenge and the people who are doing it.

Over the last few years the Hot Bikram Yoga studios have come together in a really tough challenge to raise money for Children in Need. Previously we've had staff and students sign up to do 5 straight Bikram Yoga classes in a single day and we've raised thousands of pounds for the charity.

This year on Thursday 17th November we're going one step further by making it 6 classes in one day. Some of our staff and students will even be doing an 'Anneka Rice' by travelling across London and performing the task in 3 different studios (Balham, Fulham and London Bridge!) WOW!!!

Doing a single Bikram class properly is a challenge in itself but to do 6 classes in one day (some even across 3 studios!) is an absoloutely awsome challenge and one that truly deserves support with generous donations.

This challenge will mean that the staff and students that take part will spend 9 hours in a 40'c room, performing a total of 156 demanding Bikram postures. This is a challenge of Everest sized proportions! The brave people taking part will have to dig very deep to succeed so we hope you can dig deep also!

We're looking to raise at least £3500.00 for this challenge so please help make it happen. Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

So please dig deep and donate now.
