Men's Yoga Class Forming - 'Yoga for Big Sweaty Guys' (Actually, Guys of Any Shape, Size & Flexibility)


Perhaps you saw the text ad on Google that I recently posted; 'Yoga for Big Sweaty Guys'. I would like to form a weekly yoga class just for men either in the Wilmington or Newark area. You don't have to be female, slender, flexible, and 20ish to practice yoga.

A men's class would offer a chance to work with an experienced, male yoga teacher, and the comraderie of other men. The class would focus on stretching and broadening the parts of the body where men are usually tight (legs, hips, and shoulders). Emphasis would also be given to postures that take advantage of men's body strength (e.g. arm and leg balances).

Please email me if interested in adding your name to a list of prospective students. Let me know which town you prefer for class (Wilmington or Newark), and the days and times that would work best for you.
