Yoga has been around for about 5000 years and is a combination of static and fluid stretches. Often, this discipline gets dismissed as too hard or too boring, but there are many benefits to doing yoga.

Most people tend to move in only one plane of motion, forward or the sagital plane, as most exercises are geared in this plane. Yoga moves you through all planes of motions, keeping you functional and fit, stretching muscles in different ways and in different planes of motion.

O2 Fitness offers a variety of Yoga classes, catering to the beginner or the advanced student.  Any questions? Ask us. We love when you try new things.
