Yoga room opens in SFO

Posted on February 6, 2012 by 4yoga

Joe McFarland passed along this article about a newly opened yoga room at the San Francisco airport.  Sounds like a great place to recover from the stress of travel these days!

Airport officials believe the 150-square-foot (14-square-meter) room with mirrored walls is the world’s first airport yoga studio, said spokesman Mike McCarron.

The room, open to all ticketed passengers, contains a few chairs and yoga mats but no instructors or televisions. No shoes, food, drinks or cell phones are allowed.

Yoga competition in southern Indiana

Posted on January 31, 2012 by 4yoga

At class this morning, a student shared an article from the Louisville Courier-Journal about a recent yoga competition held in southern Indiana.  Because one of the features many of us enjoy about yoga is its non-competitive nature, this event struck us as quite odd.  We are curious:  what do you think about the idea of yoga as a “sport”?  Use the “leave a comment” box below to add your feedback and ideas.

The article notes that

The competition is sanctioned by the United States Yoga Federation, which develops and promotes yoga Asana as a sport. The group is working to form an international federation and to have the sport qualify as an Olympic event.

Questions about classes

Posted on October 31, 2011 by 4yoga

Hi everyone,

4yoga would like your feedback on our class schedule.  We have several questions in mind; answer any that apply to you, including those we may not have thought to ask.

  • What would be your ideal Saturday class offering? Morning? Afternoon? Flow? Basics? Something else?
  • Would you like the Sunday 3 p.m. beginner’s class to continue, perhaps as a Beginners 2 class, building on the first sequence?  Or would you like it to remain open to those brand new to yoga?
  • Is there anything else you’d like us to offer (keeping in mind that, at least for now, we don’t have a space for weekday evening classes)?
