Yoga Classes at FF

I never knew there are a lot of different styles of Yoga. I always wanted to try Yoga so when I saw that there are Yoga classes at FF, I have to try those. From the list of GX offered in FF (Burjuman Center) I saw Hatha, Power and Flow Yoga classes.


From my research, there are actually more styles of Yoga than those three. Then each style has different methods. Source About.com Yoga

    yeah, I also don't think you need to learn all of them unless you want to become a yoga master or something... just do the ones you are more comfortable with...

    Want to try. Fail. I can't seem to grasp yoga maybe because my mind is always magulo and thinking of too many things.

    it is amazing how diverse is Yoga. I would choose a position that won't hurt my back too much.

    I took Yoga for my PE back in school. The class was at 7AM every TTH and it was such a great way to start the day. I think we did flow yoga. I kinda miss it now because I rarely get to exercise. I might go back to practicing it one of these days :)

    Thanks for this post. Now I know there are so many styles or forms a yoga has. What I used to know before was that a yoga is like controlling or holding your breath for a period of seconds, minutes or whatever.

    I am so curious with Yoga because some colleagues before were going really obsessed about it..unfortunately it just died down naturally...but this info gives me more ideas than what they told me then.
