It is great for feeling better after long runs and I think it improved my stride...a gaiam DVD will prolly work, an intro one would be best. will be excited to hear what you think!Edhttp://www.everydaylivingpnw.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592755595247951740.post-22320679826151944812013-01-15T07:50:14.348-05:002013-01-15T07:50:14.348-05:00Check out Dirty Yoga: http://www.dirtyyogaco.com/m...Check out Dirty Yoga: http://www.dirtyyogaco.com/man-yoga.html Ty @tyruns.blogspothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05942912593289802443noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592755595247951740.post-82789677752771092502013-01-14T18:01:50.406-05:002013-01-14T18:01:50.406-05:00I wouldn't let the gender thing scare you off....I wouldn't let the gender thing scare you off. Shop around and maybe even call a few places and ask for suggestions for classes for a male beginner. Mention you are a runner at class and if it a good instructor, s/he will show you some good stretches. I definitely would suggest a class with a good instructor (go to a yoga studio and not just a gym that offers some classes) because they can really help you hone in to the exact position to get the full stretch and not get hurt. After having found some excellent instructors, I find videos and gym yoga classes to be sub-par (and I try hard not to be a snob about such things).Amy Zhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03377968154311447911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592755595247951740.post-35909732591841603692013-01-14T12:19:39.916-05:002013-01-14T12:19:39.916-05:00I took yoga classes and done the DVD's - I thi...I took yoga classes and done the DVD's - I think I would always prefer in studio clases, but for the convenience and cost I like DVD's at home too. My favorites are always Rodney Yee DVD's. He has good intro ones and a dvd that's also specific yoga ocnditioning for athletes.<br /><br />One that I love is just a simple morning wakeup one he has. It's not very long and it's just a quick "wake up your body" routing that I always feel great from doing. <br /><br />And as a woman, unless I caught a guy staring oddly I never view them as creepers - but I undertsand the weird feeling you would get from just being there! :)samuraihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10830092259655372043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592755595247951740.post-39446277117658196322013-01-14T09:39:48.096-05:002013-01-14T09:39:48.096-05:00I've never been, but my wife keeps trying to g...I've never been, but my wife keeps trying to get me to go. I notice plenty of guys leaving, when I sometimes drive her there. I'll eventually give in and try it, but not yet. In the meantime, DirtDawg recommends the Simply Yoga app for iOS. I've been looking for a decent Android app to maybe get myself started.Johnny Bhttp://runrunjohnny.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1592755595247951740.post-22862967554783349712013-01-14T08:35:57.948-05:002013-01-14T08:35:57.948-05:00There are several guys in my yoga classes on Satur...There are several guys in my yoga classes on Saturday mornings...not as many on Monday mornings...so maybe it depends on the time of day...my instructor is a man too, so maybe that helps. <br /><br />Yoga has helped me stay injury free training for races for almost a year now.

You might be surprised at its difficulty, especially if you've been running a long time. There are a lot of different types of yoga, as there are instructors. Your friend is right; you just have to shop around.<br /><br />And sorry to delete the first message.
