If you’re ever in Manhattan, try Yoga to the People. It’s a donation-based studio on St. Marks. You can pay whatever you like and the classes are really great. They’re a vinyasa flow style.

I really like Yoga for Energy with Rodney Yee (I think I got the name of it right). It’s got no instruction, just tells you which pose to move into…it’s in 5 sections so you can do any or all when you feel the need.

I really like it, but when I first got it I had to pay attention, and sometimes they’d move from one pose to another faster than I was accustomed to, having only used beginner videos/dvds prior to that.

Here’s a link to it so you can see it and read the description…if you decide to buy, definitely price shop (I’ve found really good deals on Amazon and eBay on DVDs in the past).

Question by Kirby: How to avoid passing out in yoga class?
I’ve almost passed out in the past 3 yoga classes I’ve gone too- my vision gets really dark, and my hearing starts to fade- like a really bad head rush! It’s embarrassing to revert to the child’s pose when everyone else is doing what they’re supposed to. How can I avoid this? My instructor said that it may have to do with low blood pressure– how could I change that? I am breathing normally too- so I don’t think that’s it.

Stay away from yoga class or else eat better foods that provide energy and drink plenty of water before class!
