PRINCE GEORGE—If you’re new years resolution is to be physically healthy and mentally fit then why not kill two birds with one stone and join a yoga class. Sunset Studio will be hosting a four-week male yoga series starting on January 23. Instructor Andrew White, hopes that by having the classes be male-only more people who have never done yoga before will give it a try.

“As a middle aged man, I’ve seen the benefits that I’ve obtained from attending yoga. But a lot of men have some hesitation about attending a yoga class because there’s this perception that it’s just for young women,” says Andrew White, the Yoga Instructor.

Yoga has many great benefits from building strength, improving flexibility, maintaining balance and mindfulness. Some also say that Yoga has improved their anxiety.

The four-week series will run from 7:15 – 8:15 p.m. The classes are open to complete beginners but those more experienced will also benefit. Last class will be on February 13. If you would like to join you can visit sunset studio’s website via a link here.
