What To Wear For Your Yoga Class

Yoga classes are all about fluid movements, so you'll want to wear something that allows you to move, stretch and contort your body into numerous positions! So we've outlined a few pointers to put together the perfect workout wardrobe to ensure you hit the studio dressed for the occasion.

Can Yoga Build Muscle?

Yep. You don't need to lift weights to build muscle and add definition. Several of the yoga poses you'll practice at Village Gym Bristol are designed to break down muscle fibers by creating tension.

As your body repairs the muscles, more muscle mass is created, leading to a more toned physique. 

Can Yoga Help With Weight Loss?

If weight loss is your goal, choose a yoga class that will get your heart pumping, such as Vinyasa or Ashtanga.

A yoga class with plenty of movement involved and that makes you sweat is best for helping you to lose weight. 

1. Speed Up Circulation

Studies show that regular yoga practice can help regulate blood pressure. Our expert yoga instructors will guide you through yoga poses to help get your heart pumping and your blood flowing!

2. Great for the gut

Getting the blood pumping, coupled with the massaging effect of surrounding muscles speeds up a sluggish digestion. Certain twisting poses are also great for helping your liver and kidneys flush out toxins, aiding digestion. 

3. Get set to flex

Throughout a yoga class, joints are moved through their full range of motion, which encourages mobility and eases pressure. The gentle stretching releases muscle and joint tension, whilst increasing flexibility. It's a great workout choice for those with lower back pain or stiff joints.

4. Calm Those Nerves

Improved blood circulation, easing of the muscles and focusing the mind on breathing all combine to soothe the nervous system. A great way to reduce stress, anxiety and fatigue.

5. Perfect That Posture

Regular stretching of the spine and controlled movements will help you to stand correctly, taking pressure off the neck and back. Plus, great posture will make you look taller and slimmer!

6. Aid Injury

Low impact exercises are great for those rehabilitating muscle imbalances or injuries.  The slow movements prevent the body from moving too quickly, whilst allowing all core muscles to be worked. 

7. Improve Balance

Still the wobbling and create a sense of fluid stability! Yoga classes are a great way to work on your physical co-ordination, improving your balance and core strength.

8. Better Breathing

All that breath control will help to increase lung capacity and improve air circulation. You may find you'll start to sleep much better too! Correct breathing technique has been shown to help you nod off much quicker.
