Namaste 🧘‍♀️ - Village Yoga - Santa Cruz, CA

There is something about the way HOT yoga makes you feel that makes you become OBSESSED with it! Almost 10 years ago, my crazy workout buddies started going to Bikram yoga when that was a thing and encouraged me to join them. I have to say - the first time was very strange. They start with a breathing exercise that might be a little different from what you have done before. After doing 2 sets of everything, by the end of the class in a 101-degree room, I swore I would never return. I felt exhausted and depleted after that first class, and thought those yogis were all nuts. But, later that day and the next day I actually felt AMAZING!  Hmm, could this Bikram practice be something I would want to keep doing? These days, is is no longer called Bikram yoga - it is now known as Hot 26 (watch the movie on Netflix to understand why). Well, I decided to go back and give it another shot... and, needless to say, I have been hooked ever since. I never looked back, and I am now in love with the yoga glow I get afterwards. Village Yoga downtown is where you will often find me. I LOVE this place and enjoy the instructors - everyone is very knowledgeable and friendly! They have a new student special promotion for new students so they can try Hot yoga risk-free for 30 days at a ridiculously low cost of $30, so only a dollar a day for this amazing stuff! Get on down here and see for yourself, you won't regret it! Namaste
