Yoga is just for hippies right ?
Someone said to me the other day they had been talking to their friends about how amazing they had been finding the classes at YV and they were stopping their gym memberships because our classes were all they needed; they felt less stressed, stronger physically and has lost weight. Their friends didn’t believe that a yoga class could do that. Their response was “I’m not going to a yoga class, it’s for hippies who sit around and chant and burn incense”.
Now if chanting and burning incense rocks your boat, we totally have that (well maybe not the incense – heath and safety etc…)!
However …
-Do you like to feel like you’ve had a tough workout ?-Do you like to sweat?-Do you want to meet the targets and close all the circles on your fitness tracker ?-Do you like to get involved in intense forms of exercise ?
If you’ve answered yes to some or all of these questions then you need to try our hot26 and hot power and hot yoga flow classes ! As someone said to me today a hot26 class is as intense as running the marathon but with all the health benefits you can get from a week in a spa !
You will sweat like you’ve never sweated before, you will not only work on your cardio strength but endurance and stamina. Your fitness tracker will love you ! So will your muscles, your bones, your heart and skin. You’ll also have the best night sleep ever!
If you are worried about being with hippies don’t be, is David Beckham a hippy ? Serena Williams ? Rita Ora ? Tony Blair ? No I don’t think so, but they all do yoga and credit it for helping them achieve the best they can in their chosen careers.
So still don’t believe us ? Why not sign up and try one of our hot yoga classes and find out for yourself (we promise we won’t make you chant !).
