Something exciting happened at the end of last month. I had an email from a wonderful lady at OM Yoga Magazine asking if I would like to review their monthly magazine. I said yes immediately: it's already one of my favourites.
I downloaded my first digital copy earlier this month (I love the ease of having it on my phone all of the time) and have been taking time to indulge. It's a great source of information and covers loads of things including healthy recipes, mindfulness, yoga retreats and tutorials for those at both beginner and advanced practice levels. One thing I really like about it too is how accessible it makes yoga, for example, its articles this month on Yoga for Cyclists and Yoga for Fibromyalgia.
One article that caught my attention in partcularly this month, however, was Log In, Bliss Out, a comprehensive guide to Online Yoga Studios - something that I am really enjoying at the moment. I love practicing yoga at home and having the flexibility of so many different classes offered by online yoga has really appealed to me, mainly due to the fact that I get bored easily and they offer so much choice.
On these sites you can choose from so many different teachers - often world renowed such as Kathryn Budig and Seane Corn - and loads of different types of yoga from Astanga, Kundalini to Vinyasa. This choice makes then a great resource for folk like me that don't live in a big city and have access to a plethora of specific classes and because sessions range from 15mins to over an hour you can fit in a session at any time of day.

Obviously, online yoga will never be a replacement for my local yoga class as I love the social side of it, but if you are looking for a way to focus your home practice, online yoga studios could be just the thing. They are good value for money (with a monthly cost of around one traditional studio class) and many of them offer free trials, discounts and offers to let you try them without any commitment.
The OM YOGA article reviews about ten online studios and its really worth a read if you are considering signing up to one. The current issue is available to download now at OM Yoga Magazine
for only £1-99 (a bargain if ever there was one) or subscription packages are available. You can find out more at http://www.ommagazine.com/
