John Salvatore’s Bikram Yoga Passion!
June 27th, 2009
Did you know that JERSEY BOYS Vegas’ Bob Crewe, John Salvatore is also a Bikram yoga instructor?
In this week’s Las Vegas Weekly, Jennifer Grafiada has a feature on Bikram yoga, which has been changing minds, bodies and lives. John Salvatore talks to Grafiada about his passion.
Yoga can also help you sleep better, breathe deeper and walk taller. “You get so much more than you expect,†says Salvatore, who, with defined pecs, clear skin and vivid emerald eyes, looks great at 47. “It’s a mind, body and soul connection. Medically and scientifically, it’s like a prescription for perfect health, because you’re working the body from the inside out instead of the outside in. You end up getting a meditation, a physical workout and a sense of self-realization.â€
All those rewards don’t come without some serious effort, though—and gallons of sweat.
“Bikram says this too: In order to get to heaven you have to go through hell,†continues Salvatore. “It’s never really comfortable, the 90 minutes, but after you’re done, the rest of the 22 and a half hours of your day are total bliss.â€

I had the pleasure of meeting John on April 4, 2008, at the opening preview night party hosted by Buz and Irene Eizen. Had an even greater thrill when John pulled me aside to tell me that he really enjoyed my toast to Buz and Irene earlier in the evening.
He does look terrific at 47. I thought it was just a little extra moisturizer; now we all know what the real secret is. Keep up the good work, John.
