While I’ve found a great local studio for Pilates, finding a similar place for yoga hasn’t been that easy. That’s why I was excited to see that Gaiam has introduced , the first streaming video subscription offering designed to reach those interested in practicing yoga at home.
With over 2,000 titles, Gaiam TV has hundreds of hours of online yoga, Pilates and cardio classes. Plus, you can practice with top instructors like Jillian Michaels, Mari Winsor, Kathryn Budig, and Mandy Ingber. It’s not all one size fits all either. You can customize workouts for weight loss, total body sculpting, or relaxation, and pick instruction based on level, style, instructor and amount of available time, and make playlists and preview selections.
One of the biggest challenges I face is scheduling an exercise class. Sometimes class is canceled due to lack of attendance or my instructor got sick. I especially didn’t like taking off a couple of weeks during the holidays when I needed to work off those holiday treats.
That’s not an issue with Gaiam TV! Unlike your local yoga studio that only offers classes on certain days and times, Gaiam TV’s entire video library is available 24/7. Since you can stream the video to your laptop, iPad or smartphones, it’s also like having a yoga studio in your purse or backpack. You can take Gaiam TV with you when you travel or are stuck home due to winter weather.
Gaiam TV is perfect for stay at home parents who have to fit in exercise around naptime and carpool schedules. It’s also great if your local yoga studio seems ultra-competitive and packed with tight bodies and 20-somethings with no body fat. You don’t have to worry about others seeing you in your beat up yoga pants or stretched out sweats.
Interested in checking it out? Gaiam TV offers a free 10-day trial to prospective subscribers.
Plus, it’s super affordable at $9.95 per month with access to unlimited content. There’s no contract or commitment, and you can cancel at anytime. Bet you can’t say that about your gym!
Also, don’t forget to stay in touch with Gaiam on Twitter @GaiamTV .
