Is this not a stretch class? My journey to yoga

It all started when…

I originally discovered yoga through my local gym in my early 20s. I was keen to try all the different types of classes on the gym schedule and thought stretching out my muscles would be a great counter to all the physical exercise I was doing in Zumba, Body Pump and running outside of the gym.

Little did I know that well over 10 years later, I would now be a certified yoga teacher and the last thing I now associate with yoga is stretching.. even though that is an added benefit from the practice.
