January Yogi Of The Month

Congratulations to Ian Baxter, our January Yogi of the Month! Here is what he has to say about his yoga journey.

When I signed up for my first class at Milwaukee Power Yoga, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I started my yoga journey 10 years prior, yet oddly enough, I had never taken a single yoga class. I first discovered yoga after curiosity led me to pick up a Rodney Yee DVD on a whim. I was immediately hooked, and yoga became an integral part of my life – helping to keep me mentally and physically fit.

When Milwaukee Power Yoga first opened, I looked it up and I saw that it was a hot yoga studio. I never thought I did well in the heat, so I was hesitant to sign up for a class. But after a few months, I finally gave it a go and I was amazed. Any misconceptions quickly fell away, and when I left class I felt revitalized and ready to take on the day with a fresh perspective. I knew I’d be back for more.

I’d recommend Milwaukee Power Yoga to both beginners and advanced yogis alike. The combination of a challenging practice, the cleansing feeling of sweat inducing heat, the welcoming–and non-competitive–environment, and inspiring teachers truly make this studio a special place. Perhaps the best aspect of practicing regularly is that for at least an hour of each day, your mind is focused and stressful thoughts fade away. All of this while you strengthen and tone your body. That being said, since taking first my first class at Milwaukee Power Yoga, my only regret is that I didn't start sooner!

Thanks Ian for sharing your practice with us. We love the positive energy you bring in to the studio and are so happy to have you as part of our community!
