@krayzienina: ask sis ibong kung may morning pa siya dati kasi i go there around 7am. tapos minsan may kasabay ako. as much as i want to go back sa yoga, i cant. busy talaga sa work tapos medyo malayo din kasi, napapamahal ako sa taxi to and from (ortigas). and and, hirap ako sa poses, nahihiya na nga ako sakanya

[ibong nepomuceno ora]

@pooka.... hey!  how are you?  i've been reading through the thread.  oo nga eh i thought din talga if you work at ortigas mahirap talaga.  best if you practice nearby para you can easily attend... and no excuses to be tamad! :p  i did hear from some of my friends na may bago na itatayo in ortigas area.  I'll let you know once it is operational.  not sure if they'll have ashtanga.  but vinyasa meron.  

@krazyienina... hey!  actually i only have fridays 7am nalang.  had to cancel na my other morning classes kasi not so many people attend... pooka can attest to that! hehe! :p  and also i teach in another studio on mornings din kasi.  so most of the classes that i have in my studio is at night lang.  don't be hiya to text.  you can also email if you have any questions.   see you soon!

Hi pooka08, i know one, its along EDSA Greenhills lang. less than 5mns from ortigas. I attended their vinyasa yoga. every wednesday 7:30pm sila =)

[krayzienina]

hehehhe kung hirap ka sa mga poses lalo siguro ako hehe. Ako naman will try to make time sayang kasi I already purchased the vouchers so kailangan gamitin hehe.

@ibong awww ganun.texted you po (kulit ko talaga LOL ) and you said that you still have class tomorrow 8am and 10am.For what branch po ba yun.guada or makati.  hehehhe medyo naguluhan na po ako eh.

[tsokoholik]

i want to try yoga. anyone attending bikramyoga sa makati? it's really near my work. kaso medyo intimidated ako. i do not have the faintest ideas about the poses.

[blushingcheeq]

^ ok lang yan if you don't have any idea about the poses. all yogis and yoginis went through that phase. and very welcoming naman ang bikram yoga staff kaya ok lang yan.. :-) try it, very beneficial sa katawan..

if only may makakasama akong newbie din  anyway i'll give them a call hopefully tomorrow. loaded ulit sa office

FYI sisters, Bliss Yoga Manila will open a studio in Greenhills which will also accommodate the membership that you currently have with their branch in Makati. They have a promo ongoing until July end, buy 4months of monthly unlimited and get 1month free.

Sis Tsokoholik, I practice in Bliss Yoga, actually mas malapit din Bikram Yoga but then again, I enjoy Vinyasa more, so tiyaga akong magtravel to Bliss, but don't worry about being a beginner, lahat tayo naging beginner..teehee..Find a style that you will find suitable for you and focus there..Its addicting!  Now, I'm starting to get addicted to Ashtanga! Thanks to sis Ibong of course!

[pooka08]

nakakababa ba ng BP ang yoga? over 60 lang kasi normal ko. nung nag over 50 ako, i collapsed/felt dizzy while doing it.

[iluvescadasport]

I miss yoga! almost 4 months na ako hindi nagyoyoga. Minsan I just do 30minutes of yoga at home, but mga 2x a week lang ata! Wala kasing maid sa bahay kaya mahirap.

Hopefully ngayon bumalik ulit ako sa yoga since meron ng maid. I just need the discipline to attend...

[amiwicked]

hi mga sis! meron bang nagyoyoga classes sa ortigas area lang? malapit sa pearl drive?

[OD]

is anyone attending classes at Flow Yoga Center in Commonwealth, QC? They currently are offering discount vouchers for a 5-class pass at a third of its usual price(825 lang). I wonder if anyone has already bought and tried using teh voucher. Id appreciate the feedbacks greatly.

[OD]

And would anyone happen to know where I could get thicker mats? Mga 1/4" thick to provide ample support on my feeble knees, the ones ive seen even from sport shops are thin which are similar to those being sold at SM dept store.

I have the addidas yoga mat, makapal ng kaunti than the ones sold in sports shop. Hindi rin sya madulas kaya you can do your poses better

[gray07]

Has anyone tried yoga in fitness first? Ok ba? Or much better pa did on a yoga studio?  I saw d addidas yoga mat, its 1.8k mukang maganda siya and much better kesa nike. I'ma buy it if its still there tom. 

[OD]

^oh thanks for the suggestion, try ko nga inspect yan and good thing that you brought the madulas issue up coz that's another point Id have to look on when getting my next mat. Im not completely comfortable with my current for the same reason, medyo dumudulas nga ako when doing certain asanas.

[krisel_06]

May naka try na ba ditong magyoga sa Ananda Marga (yoga in manila) sa sikatuna village? Balak ko kasing umattend this coming saturday, hingi lang ako ng feedback. Thanks

I tried yoga in fitness first MOA branch. I attended the gentle flow yoga classes. Based on my experience (year 2008-2009), almost all the time late ng 5-10minutes yun instructor.

If you're a beginner, better start sa yoga studio because the instructor in the yoga studio will approach you talaga if you're doing the pose wrongly. Sa fitness kasi, wala. Instructor nasa harap ng class, she'll tell you what's the next pose naman and remind you to do the pose correctly by giving guidelines. But, iba pa rin kapag nilalapitan ka ng instructor to check if you're doing it correctly. Also, yun naaattend ko na yoga class sa fitness, usually 20++ Ang hirap kasi parang you don't have enough space na. I started yoga sa fitness, then when I switched to yoga studio, nalaman ko ang dami ko palang mali nagagawa.

And ang nakakainis sa yoga classes sa fitness, labas pasok mga tao. Diba sa start parang "meditation"? Usually kunti tao, tapos pagnagstart na talaga, tsaka pumapasok mga tao (I'm sure hindi sila late, because I saw those people sa CR pa lang when I arrived in the gym 30minutes earlier for the yoga!). Tapos yun sa end part yun "shivasana" (dunno if tama spelling & term, hindi kasi ako familiar sa terms, basta yun relaxation part in the end), nagaalisan yun mga tao.

Iba pa rin sa yoga studio. Yun nga lang, mahal =)
