<description><![CDATA[If you are looking to create more balance in your body while increasing flexibility and strength, yoga classes may intrigue your interest. Yoga will teach you to stretch in ways you never thought possible. Each of the postures and poses performed through yoga has a health benefit. Quicker movements will create a heat sensation in the body. Slower movements are known to boost stamina and improve alignment. Poses are similar for all, but the ways a teacher approaches yoga may vary. Once established in a yoga program, one will find "your own practice" is similar, but can always be done in different methods which keep the movements from becoming boring. When an instructor states you are performing "your own practice", this is your niche of yoga movement which is right for you. A great thing about yoga is that there is no competition involved. Everyone does the best they can do. The beauty of it is that you are in your own personal space doing your best according to the leader's guidance.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Before yoga left India for its glossy makeover in the West, yoga was a practice offered only to boys, who would start to contort and bend their bodies from an early age as a part of, and not as the entire, practice of yoga. These boys follow a strict discipline to prepare their bodies and mind for a lifetime pursuit of an idealized state, often referred to as "samadhi," which is too grand of a concept for a few words, but it could be understood as a total absorption of body and soul into the fabric of the universe. Most modern men who live in industrialized cities likely do not think that such an ethereal pursuit is essential to their livelihood and they are justified in their skepticism. After all, there are certain masculine goals that are a lot more visible in our era: a god job, lots of money, a fancy house, etc. It is then not surprising that men suffer more stress-related diseases than women and often have a shorter lifespan.]]></description>
