Many doctors recommend walking or jogging as a great form of exercise not only because it is great cardio, but it also gets you outdoors for fresh air and sunshine. However, residents of Pennsylvania know all too well how harsh winters can be. So consider getting your exercise indoors at Yoga Loft Bethlehem so you can stay warm while also helping your body.

There are lots of different classes to suit the type of yoga you want to practice. If you have never tried a class, you can start with a beginner course. The Yoga Loft has weekly classes that are part of a six-week series that helps you learn the basics, no matter what your fitness level. People who have not been to a class in a long time may also take it as a refresher course.

Once you graduate from beginner, you can take Restorative classes that help you feel stronger and healthier through the use of relaxation techniques and breathing. Bolster blankets, pillows and other props are also used to stretch. There is also Yin classes that allow for longer poses to really stretch your muscles and keep your energy flowing. With continued practice, Yin can help you feel younger and more lively.

Even if you are pregnant, you can easily take special prenatal yoga classes. These focus on helping you prepare for the miracle of childbirth with special stretches that focus on a pregnant body as well as breathing. You also get to learn some postnatal stretches to help you after you have given birth.

After you give birth, you can take your child to age-appropriate classes. These are set up to help your kid with their strength building and flexibility, but also to help them get a positive self-image which can really help them later in life. They also get to make friends with kids their age, which teaches some very important social skills that help them in school and all throughout their life.

Despite its name, the Yoga Loft also has lots of other class types that they offer. One of them is Pilates. These are more intense but still generally low-impact, so they are good for people who have any kind of joint issues but still want a good workout. There is also a variation called Barre + Pilates that adds in some ballet-inspired moves to keep things fresh and fun while still giving you an excellent workout.

Tai Chi is yet another offering here, one that helps get you in tune with not just your body, but your mind and spirit as well. It does so through poses and other techniques that focus on breathing and form for a low-impact workout. People with arthritis and cardiovascular issues really benefit from this, as well as those with any kind of balance issues. Tai Chi also helps with energy flow.

If you are not sure that any of these classes are for you, then you can ask to take a single class for free to see if it is a good fit. If it is, then you can either pay as you go for individual sessions, or try buying a pack of 10 or more classes to save some money as you get fitter and healthier.
