Mat + Iron
This sixty minute practice combines the power of weight training with the grace and mindfulness of asana. Weighted movements are woven into the flow, adding focused strength to the benefits of asana, breathwork, and savasana. Students will build strength, endurance, and balance while moving mindfully.
In addition to improving flexibility, balance and muscle tone, yoga promotes relaxation, decreased anxiety, improved focus, and an overall feeling of well being. Weight training builds stronger bones, more endurance, and long term joint health and mobility as well as improves metabolism. The combination of yoga and weight training creates an efficient full body practice that targets specific muscle groups, increases heart rate and caloric burn, supports long term health, and provides an opportunity for mind training and focus as students work with higher intensity
Recommended for students who are familiar with yoga asana.
