After having a lot of students that were discouraged to attend yoga classes because of their weight we developed a special program for Plus Size students. We believe that it is not fair to cut off people from yoga practice for any reason because Yoga can serve people of all ages and shapes.
What is your opinion in regard of this program.
Program Description:
The program designed for Plus Size people incorporates gentle movements, breathing techniques, and relaxation to work on every plane of our being: physical, energetic, and emotional.
There are so many seen and unseen reasons why we put on weight. The solution, therefore, must also be multidimensional. Yoga works on all levels and on actual causes not just symptoms.
Yoga poses work on endocrine glands, improve blood circulation and improve body''s metabolism. Yoga enables the body to effectively burn fat through certain postures and stretching techniques. Some examples would be certain poses on the abdomen that actually facilitate digestion or those that assist the pancreas with its hormone excretion function. Deep breathing while doing yoga reduces body fat for bringing body weight to optimal levels.
Yoga relaxation techniques and meditation can help us change harmful mental conditioning and negative self-concepts. Stress causes biochemical changes in the brain. Brain chemistry has much to do with appetite control. Yoga can help you turn the tide against stress.Tuesday, 7:00pm - 8:00pm Plus Size Yin Yoga;
Classes provided:
Tuesday, 7:00pm - 8:00pm Plus Size Yin Yoga;
Friday, 7:15 - 8:30pm Plus Size Kundalini Yoga;
Sunday, 3:00 - 4:15pm Plus Size Hatha Yoga.
Also, we enhance this program by proper nutrition with MonaVie RVL weight solution which was tested on our own bodies. It works perfect. You loose weight gradually and just because your body is fed properly with less calories.
Any opinions?
Thank you
