I spent the better part of today doing yoga on a golf course. The idea was that the sponsor of Hole #1 had a prize for the best group Yoga pose and asked if I would assist the teams to express themselves by assisting with poses.
The majority of the were men- in fact I think I only saw two women golfers. The immediate reaction was "I am not flexible, I can't do yoga". But the amazing thing was being able to find something that worked for everyone. In the process it looked like they all were having fun.
This is what I love about yoga. There are so many options available. You just have to be willing to give it a try. And that was what was so cool about today- there was a lot of enthusiasm and willingness to come outside the comfort zone.
I did hear many comments that had me thinking that there are still many myths about yoga. One of my goals is to attempt to dispel those myths so that more people can enjoy the numerous benefits of yoga.
So whether it is pre-natal yoga, mom and baby yoga, yoga for teens, yoga for stiff men, restorative yoga, Yin Yoga, Power Yoga, Yoga for seniors,-when it comes to yoga, there is something for everyone!
