Rebekah & Chris Bunting Rebekah Bunting has been teaching Bikram’s yoga since she graduated from the teacher training in the Spring of 2000. Her yoga practice began in college as a greatly-needed balance between her studies in Biology and cross-country ski racing. It wasn’t until she took her first Bikram’s yoga class after college that she seriously considered dedicating her time to deepening her yoga practice. The incredible benefits, joys and challenges of the practice eventually compelled her to leave a full-time job and go to the teacher training. |

Chris Bunting has been practicing yoga since 1993. He was drawn to hatha yoga as a means to prevent sports related injuries. By 1995 Chris had taken his first class with Bikram Choudhury and he has been hooked ever since. He completed Bikram's teacher training in 1998 and has been teaching since. Chris has taught throughout Colorado and at Bikram's studio in Los Angeles. Chris attempts to meld discipline, humor and compassion into each class. |

Jessica My practice began in Orlando Florida in 2006. I was a kindergarten teacher in much need of some healthy stress relief. A friend invited me to a Bikram yoga class. Having nothing to lose, I went and I died, only to be reborn as the person I wanted to be, my true self. My only thought after that first life-changing class was, "That was exactly what I needed." I kept going and never looked back. I graduated from teacher training on Nov. 17, 2007 in Honolulu Hawaii. It was the best thing I ever did. I then moved back to my home state of Montana and have been teaching at Bikram Yoga Bozeman ever since. Life is good! Bikram is the Man! |

Kristyn Birrell Kristyn, a Bozeman native, started Bikram Yoga in late 2007 in an effort to help prevent and heal running related injuries. One month into her practice she decided to do the 60-day Challenge – while training for the Boston Marathon. She not only got hooked on the yoga, but also set a new PR. She believes athletes in any sport can benefit from a consistent Bikram Yoga practice. Kristyn attended the Fall 2009 Teacher Training in Las Vegas. She is very excited to join an amazing |

| team of teachers at Bikram Yoga Bozeman. While she is just starting her teaching career, Kristyn attempts to bring intensity, encouragement, and compassion to all her classes. | |||

Noelle Kehoe Born and raised in Montana. I took my first Bikram's Yoga class in January 2008. I was seeking relief from chronic back and neck pain due to years of hard work in the kitchen at my local business. An employee convinced me to try Bikram's Yoga and after taking just a few classes, I knew it was exactly what my body needed. I loved the studio's sense of community, the amazing teachers, and all of the new friendships I made. Practicing Bikram's Yoga led me back to MYSELF again. The healing in my body, mind and spirit inspired me to go to teacher training in the Fall of 2009. I am so proud to be a Bikram Yoga teacher! What an amazing journey this is! |

Kim Wlliamson I came to Bikram Yoga after twenty-six years of running, step aerobics, biking, weight training, and competing in triathlons. My hips and knees were telling me it was time to make a change in my exercise routine. Bikram says you come to yoga with strength, balance or flexibility. I came with strength and balance and hardly flexibility. I was tight in my shoulders, deltoids, and hips; my work was cut out for me. |

With encouragement from my good friend, Lisa, I took my first class in 2004 and it was the hardest class I'd ever taken. I continued to come because I was curious about the mental and medical benefits of this yoga. Over time, my flexibility improved and my daily rearing of two teenage boys was much more relaxed! After practicing a year of Bikram Yoga, I decided to go to teacher training in Los Angeles. Training was the most challenging and rewarding experience of my life aside from raising my children and keeping my marriage strong. I can't imagine practicing an activity that provides so many rewards for both my students and myself. It is so inspiring to see people work hard in order to improve their bodies and their quality of life. Bikram Yoga has found a special place in my heart and it will continue to enrich my life for many years to come. Special thanks to my family and Chris and Rebekah Bunting for supporting and giving me the opportunity to teach Bikram yoga. ---Kim Williamson, Class of 2005 |
