The Power Of A Yoga Retreat
A men’s yoga retreat. The idea had been brewing for a long time.
Honestly, I was also surprised that I was one of the first to offer all men’s yoga classes. There seemed to be this huge and unreasonable stigma attached to men doing yoga. Because of this stigma, I made the decision to start a yoga class exclusively for men.
I remember my first time leading an all men’s yoga class.
The yoga space itself was magical. It has beautifully restored wood floors and enormous north-facing bay windows where we could glimpse empty office and factory buildings–spaces that would come alive again the next day as people returned to work.
In the distance, the Empire State Building provided an incomparable Drishti, a focal point for our practice.
Most evenings, the room was chilly as we arrived. But by the night’s end, the room was hot and steamy from our hard work.
