I have been suffering some pretty intense lower back pain, pretty much non-stop for the past several months, and my doctor gave me some stretches to do, but it was not much help. But in the spirit of the stretching idea, I decided to up the perscription and try a yoga class... that is some serious stuff there, and I noticed immediate results... actually, after just a few classes, I am pain free :up:

If it wasn't for the constant pain, I would never have been comfortable going to a class... I thought maybe I would have to provide proof of membership to the gay community or something... and it didn't help when I showed up to class and I was the only male, but the instructor is super, and it doesn't feel like anyone has an issue with me being there :whew:

It really does work in making you feel good... I'd recommend it for anyone.

Does anyone else do yoga?

Wanted to try hot yoga for some time now. Will probably join as early as tomorrow :).

Guys are always welcome, as long as the outfit isn't too revealing. lol. j/j.

You're kidding me. My b/f is so against going or even trying ... this coming from a person who has a guy's blue coach wallet. Jeez louise. :p

No kidding... he is always wanting us to do some class together..... UGH! No way.

I have been taking yoga for 3+ years and love it. It is only once a week, but I do some at home on my own, too. For me 2 or 3 times a week would be perfect. [MENTION=2092]JAKEISGREAT[/MENTION] yoga will help your creaky everything. It reminds me of the isometrics of the 70's & 80's. The teachers talk you through all of the poses and they are progressive, the pose you are doing gets you ready for the next one. [MENTION=410]Telly03[/MENTION] we usually have 1 or 2 guys in each class. I LOVE YOGA!!!
