Yoga

For the past couple of days, I've had yoga in my mind. hehe..

It all started when we went to Yellow Cab last Saturday. Thanks Jeh for the treat! and belated happy 10th to you and Ed!

Anyway, I saw this article regarding "Hot Yoga." It featured the Bikram Yoga Manila. After reading it, it made me want to do it. I've been wanting to try it out ages ago way back in college. Neither had the funds, the time nor the will to do it.. hahaha...

Well, I believe now is the time in my life to explore the possibilities of learning Yoga. I'm still on the "research" stage. Trying to look for a center that would fit my budget, time and of course, location is accessible.

Here's a list of the yoga centers I found on the net.

1. Ananda Marga Yoga Center - located in Sikatuna Village, Q.C.
Price for the 8-week course is 1800pesos which includes a book and a cd. 250pesos for drop-ins. Not bad.

2. Bikram Yoga Manila - located in Salcedo Village, Makati
This is the center I read from the mag. They have an introductory package which costs 1k for 3 sessions that you must take within a week. If you decide after experiencing the introductory package that you want more, just add 4k and be able to avail of their unlimited package for a month. Quite expensive if you shell out the 5k instantly but if you compute it, it's cheaper. But then again, can I do that do yoga for 30 days straight? hehehe..

3. Yoga Manila - has 3 locations: Ortigas, Makati and Alabang.
400pesos per class. 2200pesos for 6 classes can be taken over a 90-day period in any 3 locations. Not bad.

4. Pulse Yoga - located in Greenhills.
500pesos for walk-ins. One week unlimited pass for 1200pesos or 4k monthly. This by far is the nearest to me but still seems expensive. Sorry, I'm a cheapskate.. hahaha...

5. Vinyasa Yoga Center - located in Ortigas.
400pesos for a trial session. 4200 for 12 sessions. Not bad too. This is near my office so the place is really accessible.

So why all this yoga stuff in mind? Well, I just really need to do something. Something constructive, take my mind off my problems and in the process be stress-free and lose weight too. hehehe..

So who wants to join me on yoga bandwagon?
