Flow With It


Its the first of the month, no longer the first of the year. That is why you are probably reading this on your couch as Jake breaks another girls heart on The Bachelor instead of working up a sweat on the elliptical. So starting back on the cardio may cause some cardiac arrest so take it easy with a little more zen. In San Fran you can head to Urban Flow, to begin your life long yoga practice. This is a donation based business, aka pay what you can afford to experience excellent health benefits. The suggested amount is 10 to 20 dollars. Your donations then create community outreach programs serve the less fortunate. All classes are taught by certified instructors in Vinyasa yoga. Vinyasa is flow based yoga where each movement melds into each other. The room is not warm, not a heat box like some of those other yoga joints, your body needs to be warm to get into those poses. Appropriate music accompanies the class to settle your mind and focus on your poses. Remember to bring your own mat and towel, it keeps germs to a minimum. Look at the schedule, see which one fits in your life, and soon enough you will be able to wrap your leg around your torso.
