Men and Yoga



NFL players swear by it. Golfers see improvement in their game. Cyclists do it to increase their strength and endurance. Are you curious what it is?

Well, yoga isn’t just for women fellas. Men often suffer from being tight, especially in the hips, hamstrings and shoulders. We know yoga links the mind and body, but did you know yoga boosts your energy and speeds up your body’s recovery time? It can even help with back pain.

3.5 million men practice yoga.  Don’t you think you should give it a try?

Regular yoga practice can improve your athletic performance and decrease discomfort after workouts. New studies show men who practice yoga may lower their risk of heart disease, depression and high blood pressure. 

“I originally tried Yoga,” Byron Henderson said, “because my body has taken a lot of wear the last 25 years on the soccer field. There have been numerous times of gone to class feeling sore and tired and out of sorts and left with a positive attitude, reinvigorated.”

Inner Peace Yoga offers a variety of classes that are all open to men, but beginning September, Inner Peace Yoga is offering a Men and Yoga class every Thursday at 8:30 p.m.  If you would like more information call Inner Peace Yoga at (918)-809-4444 or visit our website at www.innerpeaceyogatulsa.com.

  1. Another basic principle of Yoga involves service to others. Helping others while asking for nothing in return makes people feel good on the inside, increases self-confidence, and improves interpersonal relationships. Yoga encourages you to help others in a way that is meaningful to you. When people act in the interest of others, instead of constantly pursuing selfish goals, the world becomes a more peaceful place.
