Here's Something We Can Do- Yoga!

 

People that practice Yoga are generally thin, in shape, attractive, self assured and calm. Why?

 

In reading what makes Yoga- Yoga, I've found some interesting references to the practice involving a series of postures, stretches and contortions, along with the "power of still" to create a healing practice that improves circulation, relieves back pain and stretches out muscle groups.

 

The practice is also for men, women and youths, anaerobic- meaning without the jumping up and down or duration of jogging that makes aerobics or a good run not a viable practice for many.

 

Yoga instructors, in fact, might certainly be a Certified Yoga Teacher trained to work with students who suffer from chronic pain in the knees, shoulder or spine.

 

So, if you're in the mood, Yoga might suit your needs and your limitations.  There are several Yoga Studios in Montpelier.  Generally new students receive an introductory discount.
