Does anyone know a reliable number for calories burned during a 90 minute session of Birkam Yoga? Thanks!

    When I did yoga, my instructor said bikram burns about 350 calories per hour.

    I went not too long ago and I wore my hrm just once and I burned 215 calories... depends on how fit you are too!

    Bikram is different though. A website I found quoted 955 for 1.5 hours for 140lb. person. I once took my heart rate monitor with me, the above stats are pretty accurate.
