20 Amazing Benefits of Yoga You'll Gain by Practicing Every Day

Sally Awad 

My first yoga class was with the amazing Sallyness, and I couldn't stop going after that. She now offers hybrid yoga. If you don't know what hybrid yoga is, it's a class where you'll sweat your t-shirt off.

Hybrid yoga is a combination of yoga practice and various styles of traditional exercises (such as Pilates, CrossFit, and acrobatics, among others). It has a strong, underlying tendency to connect people's mental intentions with physical activities they already enjoy. So, if you want to push yourself, you should definitely try Sally's class. 

Nina Kabbany

Last year, I had the wonderful opportunity to try one of Nina Kabbany's classes, and let me tell you, it's the class you need to end a long, hectic day of work and go to a yoga class to relax, which is exactly how I felt after her class; so relaxed.

Nina teaches a variety of yoga styles, including Healing Yoga, Aerial Yoga, Vikasa Yoga, and Power Vinyasa. Her classes are suitable for all levels, so if you are new to yoga and are worried that it will be difficult, there is no such thing in Nina's class because she will guide you through the flow.

I personally attended Marwan Samir's class, and let me tell you, it was just the right amount of challenge for me on this particular day! His classes push you to work every muscle in your body, and you will leave class not knowing it was possible that this area could hurt you, but not the kind of pain that is bad for you, but the kind that is "no pain, no gain."

Marwan teaches an energy flow class, which is a vinyasa class for all levels that aims to energize the body, mind, and senses with physically challenging yet accessible sequences and teaches you how to direct your body's energies to improve your strength, balance, and endurance.

This class is excellent for spine bending because we all know that how we sit has a significant impact on our backs! Diana's class is a must-try if you're looking for a challenging class with a calm instructor.

This method attempts to break the cycle of you putting limits on yourself when your body is capable of far more than you realize. Through the flow, you can motivate yourself to believe that if you put your mind to it, you can achieve anything.
