Hybrid Yoga On the Rise
FRIDAY, 28 JULY 2006
Bukodon, soulful yoga, nude yoga, and yoga for surfers are just some of the newest types of yoga that are making quite an impression nowadays.
According to www.abc.go.com, the "Yoga for America" survey collected by the Harris Interactive Service Bureau on behalf of Yoga Journal shows that yoga enthusiasts are turning more into yoga hybrids or the combination of yoga and sports or fitness activity.
However, Dr. Cedric Bryant, chief science officer for the American Council on Exercise warns about the potential of these hybrids to strip yoga of its value. "It's just trying to be innovative to attract an audience," Bryant says. "In the quest for making things new and different and innovative they will compromise some of the benefits," he adds.
Bryant advises yoga enthusiasts to consider some pointers when planning to join a hybrid yoga class. Some of these pointers are the background of the yoga teacher, certification programs, the publicity it generates, and the incorporation of fundamental yoga moves.
