Beer Yoga Is New Fitness Program Craze

Who says you cannot combine fitness with pleasure? Definitely not those who have been doing beer yoga.

For those who are not aware of this recent trending fitness program, beer yoga actually started in Berlin through BierYoga. The company that started the practice describes it as a "marriage of two great loves-beer and yoga. Both are centuries-old therapies for mind, body and soul." In an interview with the Ex Berliner, founder and yogi Jhula confessed that she got the idea of combining alcohol and yoga in a party scene in one of the Burning Man Festivals she attended.

According to Mashable, it has already reached Australia and apparently two sessions will be organized in Sydney. It is said that students need not have training or experience and they just have to come with an "open mind and a love of beer." It is expected that those who wil be attending the sessions will be learning traditional yoga poses with a beer yoga twist like "beer salutations" and balancing beer bottles on their head.

This comes as residents of San Francisco also had their own run-in with weird yoga classes. According to Metro UK, yoga practitioner Dee Dussault recently opened slots to her Ganja yoga sessions, where students will be smoking weed a few minutes before starting the exercise. These classes can be availed for $25 and will involve "sun grown organic flower, C02 vape pens or paleo edibles."

The Lawyer Herald will be posting more news on beer yoga, Ganja yoga and their effects to the body in the coming weeks. Will you be trying beer yoga soon?
