My primary reason for joining Man Flow Yoga was a desire to get in better shape, to keep up with my kids, who were, at that time, six and nine. But it was also to make sure that I was doing my best that I could to help take care of my own body. I was having stupid injuries. You bend down to pick up a box at IKEA or something, and you’re twisting, and all of a sudden, your back is just sore, thrown out.
I first found Man Flow Yoga through the Strength Foundations Challenge ad in January, I think, of 2024 on Facebook. And by the end of the six weeks of that program, I felt better. I noticed that my body was moving better. My joints were less achy. I had more energy, and I was sold. I said, “I’ve got to join this. I’ve got to keep on.” In traveling with my family on long road trips, it used to be I’d get somewhere, and I’d just be totally exhausted, depleted, and sore for days.
Now, I’m able to go on these trips. I’m able to walk the 20,000 steps when we go to an amusement park. I’m able to really be present in ways that I wasn’t able to be before. My message to friends and family about Man Flow Yoga is give it a shot. Commit to the change, be consistent, and interact with the community. So control your breath, control your body, and hit the mat.
