Welcome to Yoga Hut


People everywhere are learning the benefits of  adding yoga to their fitness regimes. With Yoga Fore Golfers, we show you how yoga can have positive effects both on and off the golf course.  If you're a golfer and have been thinking about trying yoga, then this is the perfect opportunity to slip off your spikes, and take up a new stance on your mat.

At Yoga Hut we’re dedicated to promoting the health and wellness benefits of yoga, particularly as it applies to those of us that are considered to be active older adults, baby boomers, or even 50+.

We are living longer and we are learning that we need to stay active both mentally and physically.  We want better nutrition, exercise and fewer toxins in our environment. And we’re coming to yoga in greater numbers because it compliments our proactive urge to self-improve and decelerate the aging process.

Imagine a journey without end that is as enjoyable and rewarding with your first step as it is with your thousandth step. This is the philosophy of yoga at Yoga Hut.

  
Pose of the Month

The posture we focus on this month is Adho Mukha Svanasana or Downward Facing Dog Pose. It is also known as Down Dog or Downward Dog.

This pose is arguably the most well known of all yoga poses probably due to its prevalence in so many yoga practice routines. It is often used as a transitional pose between standing and mat postures, particularly when practiced as part of the Sun Salutation, but has many benefits in and of its own right. Down Dog stretches the back and the backs of the legs, opens the chest and builds upper body strength. It intoduces a gentle inversion which also stimulates the brain and the nervous system. Y4G DownDog Stickman
