Santé reader Jacqueline has embraced yoga for a decade. After years of high-intensity body pump and body shape classes, she craved a change. She gave yoga a try…
“That first class wasn’t for me at all. I switched to power yoga for the muscle burn I craved. Years on, I’ve learned yoga isn’t about forcing poses—it’s deeper. With practice, your breath slows, calm washes over you, and you’re hooked. Now I flow five times a week, starting my day with yin yoga. I recommend it to everyone!”

“Headstand is my go-to—it flips the world upside down. I usually skip the bench, but this photo’s from a workshop where it freed my neck and eased spinal stress.”
“During the COVID lockdown, with gyms shut, I practiced yoga daily at home. Now studios are open, and I’m back in class.”
“Yoga delivers mental peace amid chaos; post-session, you feel grounded in body and mind. In uncertain times like the pandemic, it sharpens focus—try it!”
