Do you want to get fit, but worry about being vulnerable to close-quarters melee attack during your exercises? Then sword yoga is for you! The New York Post reports that performing yoga routines while holding swords is becoming a popular activity in some studios in The City. It's a synthesis of vinyasa yoga, tai chi, and kung fu.
Sabrina Stoberg founded WeaponUp, a sword yoga fitness firm. Her background in Shaolin kung fu provided her with a foundation for this vigorous yoga practice that demands strength, balance, and flexibility. It also encourages women who participate to feel strong and develop what Stoberg calls "main character energy."
