My biggest reason for joining Man Flow Yoga, well, lots of pain. I was diagnosed with degenerative disc disease. I have arthritis in my knees from years of sports and just being a guy and being a fool and tearing myself up. And I was looking for a mindset change. At 62, just lifting and doing cardio, just beating myself up, wasn’t getting it anymore. I knew of yoga, never wanted to try it. I always thought it wasn’t a manly thing to do.
So I started looking at yoga things, and I found Dean and Man Flow Yoga, and I loved it. I liked the fact that it was a guy teaching me as a guy with real guy problems. We’re not as flexible. And I feel like all the training is geared towards strengthening your mind, your muscles, less the wear and tear on the joints, and that’s what I needed.
