Yoga

Lots of snow and nothing to do besides orkuting ( i want to quit orkut but cannot :( ), so decided to join YMCA madison and its really a nice place and very friendly people. http://www.madisonymca.org/ ,was going through fitness schedule http://www.madisonymca.org/content.php?pid=53 and found out Buttenheim was booked for 'Yoga' for wednesday and friday.
I always heard people saying yoga is really good for mental and physical strenght but I never tried it before.
So went to buttenheim on monday and to my surprise there are lots of people shown up.
Instructor was very nice and gave us basic advise about yoga and importance of breathing at time of exercise.
I googled yoga and found of below link http://www.yogasite.com/postures.html it gives you postures and other useful information about yoga.
I have been to these classes 2-3 times and believe me it feels good after only 1 hour of workout, Yoga is not like other cardio or steps which will burn 500 to 600 calories but yoga will help to work on whole body. My personal experience is after cardio or weights you will feel tired but not after this. You will feel very nice and all your work tension will go away
I wish i could have started Yoga, when I was young ( hey I am not that old... getting older). But is always better to be late then never... So I am very happy joining this class.
If you havn't tried Yoga before, I would suggest join a class and you sure will find difference.
