if you told me six years ago that I would be a devoted follower of a bay area yoga couple I would have probably believed you, but would've rolled my eyes. But after regular practice, taking stock of where I started and where I am now, yoga has changed my life. I do like the occasional class, but doing it at home is so much cheaper and you can build a foundation to know a little more about what you're doing. They have classes for all levels and a paid Patreon channel if you want longer ones (75, 90, 120 minutesš„)
I'm normally not into the woowoo stuff, but something about Flo's assurances that you don't need to worry about how a pose *looks* only how it *feels* makes all the difference. Focusing on your breath and his vocal cues help tune you into parts of your body you forget about. And that awareness reaches far to so many other areas of your life. If you're at all curious about yoga, don't roll your eyes or by a cynic like 2018 me. Get into it.

I love taking fitness classes IRL and I think boutique fitness is so interesting and literally, like I said, could just make this whole thing about that. So if you ARE interested in recommendations of studios and teachers and stuff reach out to me bc I am going to STOP but I did wanna say-- if youāre someone whoās been practicing yoga for a long time, especially at home, it can get kind of monotonous- you start to be able to predict where youāre going next, like, Warrior 2, then Reverse Warrior, then Triangle. Etc.Ā So I recently found this girl I am in love with and her name is Nicole and she doesnāt upload videos very often but theyāre like the closest to an in-studio experience Iāve ever had at home. Her sequencing is so creative!!Ā Sheās an artist. Itās definitely for more experienced people, but if that is you, I think you will love her. She is amazing at coming up with crazy flows that are so fun and challenging. And a lot of them are a nice hour long!!If you are newer to yoga and are maybe burnt out on Adrienne, I think you would love Yoga With Kassandra...Ā sheās really accessible.. this is all free on YouTube I should have specified

Iād have gone completely insane this year if I didnāt āpracticeā yoga. Iāve been streaming videos from my fav studio VERAYOGA since April. They teach Vinyasa yoga, which is yoga as exerciseā¦ because exercise gives you endorphins, endorphins make you happy, and happy people just DONāT kill their husbands. Very challenging but very worth it (hello, have you seen my abs???). Keeps me limber and grounded. They have good playlists, but sometimes I just put on Radiohead and pretend like Iām Dakota Johnson in Suspiria. Moody girl checkkk.

a study issued last month found that dancing is the most effective way of treating and mitigating depression. Walking, therapy, and yoga also outpaced SSRIs. and if you're saying 'oh this was probably funded by Big Dance', there's no evidence of that and if you're saying 'that's just what a Big Dance shill would say', well honey you're right
