I feel nauseous and dizzy during class sometimes. Is this normal? What should I do about it?

Bikram Yoga, Pasadena - FAQ
Usually the problem is that we do not drink enough water. We need 64-80 ounces of water a day to help the body function properly. In the heated yoga room, your body needs an adequate fund of water to allow perspiration to release heat from the body as you practice. So we estimate you need another 64-80 ounces (sometime during the day) to allow for your 90 minutes in the room. Once you are drinking enough water, your body will tolerate the heat better and you will actually enjoy the heat.
