Kind of a Yogi Now

For the last month or so I joined a Yoga Studio, because my gym at home screwed up and didn't pay their rent and as a result it closed and I didn't even get a courtesy email. Cheers guys!

So basically I needed to find something before my gym subsiderary from work kicked in which meant I would be able to join the BEST Fitness First ever next to the office. This gave me a month! I follow more than enough Yogis on Instagram to know I basically wanted to be one, is that too much to ask? Here are my top 3 favourites - if you want to be inspired these are the guys to follow;


I found my nearest studio, a mere 5 minute walk from the office on a side street just off Tottenham Court Road names iamyoga London. £45 for 30 days unlimited yoga. AMAZING!

So to give you my yoga background, I forced myself through some dull classes at a LA Fitness but wasn't really in the slight bit interested until I joined my auntie Janet at her local hot yoga studio in Canada and I loved it. I left the class dripping with sweat, but super flexible and clear headed. So there you go, this brings me to now. 

iamyoga London has 14 different yoga traditions with 9 different classes a day, so there is more than enough options for 9 to 5 (more like 8 to 6.30) office workers. Whether you are looking for a morning vinyasa flow, lunchtime hot power hour or evening warm Forrest; the options are endless. 

They are very much into their meditation, chanting, spirituality and the occasional acro-type yoga. I literally had the best month there and felt very chilled, clear-minded and all stress levels vanished. I was sad to say goodbye, but unfortunately the price of a regular member doesn't sit too well in my bank account and my new gym actually offers hot yoga included in my membership, winning!
