Whether you're a fitness buff searching for a new challenge or a yoga enthusiast looking for a way to balance your exercise routine, Beth Shaw's YogaFit® will help you reach your ultimate physical potential!
Yes, physical! That's because YogaFit combines tough aerobic exercise with strength- and flexibility-building yoga to create a total body workout. Sweat—not meditation—is the key. And that's exactly what makes this cutting-edge fitness program different from all the rest.
"YogaFit is about exploring your limits, physically and mentally," says Shaw. "It's the ultimate mind working with muscle challenge. With regular YogaFit workouts, you'll not only experience increased overall health, energy, and vitality, but also a stronger and leaner body, natural weight loss, reduced stress and tension, better posture, improved concentration and a higher level of fitness."
Tens of thousands of fitness buffs have already tried the program, which was created and developed exclusively by Shaw. Now, Shaw shares her secrets with you in her new book.
Featuring more than 50 YogaFit poses, the book teaches you everything you need to know about breathing and warm-up, forward bends and backbends, twists, inversions, and cool-down. To make it as simple as possible, Shaw organizes the poses into well-rounded workout routines that mirror those offered at her signature studio in Hermosa Beach.
Workouts include Power YogaFit, YogaFit Lite, and YogaFit Classic. There's even information about how to create your own personalized routines to meet your own needs and how YogaFit can be used as a training tool for sports.
