Aqua yoga classes are surfacing everywhere; from local gyms to posh resorts. The philosophy behind this new hybrid is based on the premise that water’s gravity-free environment is gentle on joints and offers a soothing, nurturing environment. The precise form of traditional land-based asanas may be somewhat stretched to accommodate the liquid setting, but who wants a nose filled with water from attempting a Downward Facing Dog in the pool? Advantages include a greater range of motion and a feeling of gracefulness, even for first-timers. Find aqua yoga classes at these locations:
