In addition to all the bootcamps, spin classes and high-intensity workouts, I enjoy yoga… regular, hot, hot with weights…and now yoga with cardio!

I added yoga to my workout routine a couple of years ago, and it has greatly improved my flexibility, muscle recovery and mental awareness. Yoga is great for the mind, body and spirit, and I feel that it adds perspective and balance in life. So much can be obtained from just one or two yoga classes per week. I highly recommend it…whatever level and temperature you like!

Here’s my favorites…

YogaSix

Newport Beach / Eastbluff Shopping Center

My favorite classes are TRX and Hot Yoga Sculpt (with weights)!

Radiant Hot Yoga

Newport Beach / Bison Shopping Center
Be warned, it’s hot!…around 104 degrees, so if you can stand the heat, I highly recommend it as alternative way to sweat-out a workout! Be prepared with plenty of ice water, absorbent yoga mat and towels.

A note about hot yoga…

There’s two kinds, “Bikram” style of hot yoga that emphasizes breathing techniques, and a non-Bikram “flow” that is very challenging, with lots of poses, cardio and some ab-work. I don’t do Bikram.
