W.O.W Results

Hey Ladies!!!! If you missed the sign-up for the last session of Women On Weights--don't fret-- it'll start up again in the fall. Keep your eyes open for the flyers around the clubs for the times and dates of the next sessions. As for the results of the third session...here they are: 12 1/2 total inches lost and 5.8% body fat lost!!! Pretty amazing considering it only took 6 weeks!

Also, if you have already taken "WOW" look for a regular class time starting up this summer one day a week! You can buy a punch card and attend when you can! Stay tuned for more details.

Congratulations to all of you for all of your hard work. It ALWAYS pays off! ~Anneliese Smith

What is Yoga?

“Yoga is like music. The rhythm of the body, the melody of the mind,
and the harmony of the soul create the symphony of life.”

B.K.S. Iyengar

Yoga means union. It is an ancient art and science that brings the body and the mind together into balance and harmony. The practice of the asanas, or Yoga poses, has positive impacts on the physical, physiological, and psychological systems in the body. The technical aspects of the poses, the timing, and their sequencing all build upon each other in a practice session or a class in order to:

¨ Exercise, elongate and strengthen the muscles
¨ Increase flexibility and range of motion in the joints
¨ Improve the flow of blood and lymphatic fluids
¨ Calm the nervous system
¨ Improve the performance of the endocrine glands
¨ Quiet and focus the mind

All of these benefits of Yoga derive from the practice of physical postures and breathing exercises. One not only feels taller, more flexible, stronger, and lighter after a Yoga class; there is also a feeling of peace and well-being. What better energy can we take out into the world?

Come to an Introduction to Iyengar Yoga session in April to learn more about Yoga, observe some of the asanas, and try a few yourself! Consult the calendar for the classes currently being offered.
