Fun Yoga classes in Sydney

From humble beginnings in India over 5,000 years ago, yoga has grown into one of the world’s most popular exercise activities! Much like many eastern art forms such as calligraphy and origami, it took yoga a little while to spread across the globe. Once it did, however, its enlightening health benefits took the world by storm. Now, over 300 million people practice it daily and are profiting from the way it aids in circulation and pain relief.

With its focus on enlightenment through the physical form, the practice of yoga combines mindful movement meditation with ancient philosophies that promote inner peace, mental clarity, and pain relief. One of the many fun things to do in Sydney, ClassBento’s yoga classes are a perfect place for beginners to start learning the art form.

Our yoga classes place a strong emphasis on creating an inclusive and welcoming atmosphere. As many people are new to yoga, our experienced teachers are aware that not everyone is at the same level of flexibility and self-awareness and cater the sessions accordingly. Our yoga classes in Sydney are perfect for individuals of all shapes and sizes who are looking at improving their physical and mental health.

ClassBento offers a variety of yoga classes in Sydney for you to choose from. Learning traditional Indian yoga styles such as Patanjali and Ashtanga yoga is perfect for beginners looking to take the modernity out of yoga and go back to traditional basics. These classes focus on Indian teachings of spiritual connectedness to one’s self and the world around you, so it’s an ideal choice if you’re looking at taking the more traditional route. We offer a variety of styles and workshops, including yoga classes with a stronger emphasis on meditation and massage. 

Health benefits of Yoga

Yoga reduces stress and anxiety, and much like Tai Chi, is a form of “mindful movement meditation” where the focus on each individual movement and stretch aids in clearing the mind. People who practice yoga regularly celebrate it for its ability to mentally rejuvenate, and help them detox after stressful periods in life. 

Mental health benefits aside, yoga aids in your physical health in a variety of ways. One of the more obvious ways is flexibility, but the exercises also aid in developing muscle strength, often providing good a good core workout to leave you feeling stronger. With such emphasis on movement and flexibility, yoga also improves joint and cartilage health, aiding in the prevention of arthritis and joint paint. This extends to your back, and alleviating back pain is one of the many reasons older individuals start practising yoga. As you contract and stretch your muscles, your body drains lymph - a viscous liquid that contains high amounts of immune cells - aiding your lymphatic system in fighting off infection, cancerous cells and naturally occurring toxic waste in the body.
