Yoga Weight Loss Program

 

We are constantly asked by our students if Yoga can make you lose weight and while we say yes, many still seem sceptical. This is because we are so used to associating weight loss with extreme workouts, diets and medication. Whereas Yoga appears to be a gentle and slow form of exercise that just doesn’t fit with the conventional methods of losing weight. 

That was when we decided we were going to set the record straight. Once and for all, have some documented evidence that Yoga can make you lose weight. So in September last year, we started a 120 Day Weight Loss Challenge in an effort to prove Yoga’s effectiveness for weight loss. We had 3 overweight ladies take on the challenge for 120 days and their progress was extensively recorded and updated regularly on our blog, Facebook page, Twitter and You Tube. 

The challenge concluded on the 18th of February 2011 where we organised a Finale to announce the amazing results. All three ladies not only lost weight and body fat, they also transformed into confident, happy, positive, flexible and strong women. The results can be viewed here: The Finale.

Due to the success of the challenge, we are proud to officially launch our Weight Loss Program in Melbourne. Please find information in the program below: 

Break the Mental Barrier 

Losing weight is as easy as this mantra – Burn More Energy Than You Consume. There is a 99% chance that you are now asking yourself this question; “Why can’t I lose weight if it is that easy?” Simple. Losing weight requires discipline. It is a mental game. Until you address this fact, you will not be able to lose weight and maintain weight loss.

That is why our weight loss program does what almost no other program does; we help you become mentally prepared. We help you acquire the discipline. The key to why you have been finding it difficult to lose weight.

Harness Your Inner Prana or Energy to Burn Fat

A cornerstone of our weight loss program is a yogic technique that harnesses your own energy to burn fat. We call this Energy Fat Loss.This amazing technique will give you an unfair advantage in your quest to lose weight.

A Serious Program. No Gimmicks. Not a Fad.

Forget all the lose weight gimmicks and diet fads. They are never permanent and only bore large holes in your pocket. The weight loss industry generates billions of dollars in revenue and feeds on your lack of knowledge. All reputable health organizations and doctor’s will recommend daily activity for weight management and optimum health.

The U.S Center for Disease Control (CDC) reports on its website that 150 minutes of vigorous-intensity aerobic activity and 2 days of muscle-strengthening activity is essential for optimum health benefits. The same website also recognizes Yoga as a muscle strengthening activity.

Our program is designed to give you this prescribed weekly activity level that is also recommended by the U.S Department of Health and Human Services for Adults.

Yoga is Said to be the Best Method for Weight Management Because It Has No Side Effects On Your Body

Our program is a very practical and holistic approach that is 100% natural, practical and does not require you to starve yourself. The only side effect you will experience is a huge improvement in your overall health!

A 16-Week Course That Will Whip You Into Shape and Keep You There Permanently

Our weight management program will run over 16-weeks where you will be taught:

• Energy Fat Loss sessions 
• A combination of Hatha and Flow Yoga to burn fat, tone and strengthen your body back into shape
• Meditation and relaxation techniques to help you build the mindset and discipline required on your journey to your ideal body weight

This alone, helped one of our clients lose 4 pant sizes in 3 weeks! But to ensure your success, you will also be given:

• Weigh-Ins to monitor your fat loss
• A food diary to keep track of your food intake. (Don’t worry, our program does not require you to starve yourself or deprive yourself).

What If I Have An Existing Medical Condition or Cannot Keep Up?
