I can definitely testify to the power of yoga - I wasn't a believer at first, but I went down to the gym for a free session and fell in love with it. It's definitely harder than it looks - I didn't think it would be both a stress reliever AND a calorie burner - whew! Great lens! Posted June 10, 2008 |
