12 Thursday, January 21, 1999 Yoga: Alternative Exercise Yoga has become a popular way to relieve daily stress and maintain both physical and mental health. By Lindsay Mather Staff Writer The light sounds of Enya fill the room. Men and women of all ages lunge forward, their arms stretched toward the ceiling. Each movement is slow and smooth, their breath leaving their lungs with a whisper. It’s a Tuesday night, and yoga class is in session. Every Tuesday and Thursday evening from 8:30 p.m. to 10 p.m. yoga classes are offered in the Student Recreation Center. Tracy Bogart, the co-director of Triangle Yoga in Chapel Hill and founder of the yoga program at the SRC, said she received positive feed back from student participants. “Yoga improves your daily life. It is therapeu tic and is practiced in a non-competi tive atmosphere,” Bogart said. Yoga began in India about 5000 years ago as a way to “loosen up” before meditating, Bogart said. Although known for its physical components, yoga also incorporates the mental and spiritual sides of partic ipants, said Gina Febbraro, a yoga instructor at the SRC. “Yoga is about listening to your body and balancing energy,” she said. Considered an exceptional means of relaxation, yoga relieves muscle stress and strain, Bogart said. “It touches everything, yet overde velops nothing,” she said. “Yoga leaves you long, lean, supple and elastic.” Yoga is also attributed with increas ing flexibility and blood flow, toning muscles and enhancing the immune system, said Bob Brame. Brame has been practicing yoga since 1990 and is the Thursday yoga instructor at the SRC.

Since the mid 19605, yoga has gained popularity in the western world as a means of maintaining physical and mental health, Febbraro said. “Yoga has gotten really trendy,” she said. “There’s a spiritual side to it that attracts a lot of people.” Celebrities such as Sting, Raquel Welch and Dennis Rodman practice forms of yoga and meditation, said Jo- Anna Spector, the owner of the Hatha House in Durham, where she has taught yoga for 18 years. Despite its heightened popularity, many people continue to misunder stand yoga, Spector said. “Yoga is not a cult, and you don’t have to be able to tie yourself up like a STATEWIDE CLASSIFIEDS sss For a variety of long-term income streams J G Wentworth, mortgage buyer 1-888-231-5375 $$ WE BUY $$ ’Seller Financed Notes 'lnsurance Settlements ‘Land Note Portfokos Colonial Financial 1-800-969-1200, ext 53 HOMEOWNERS - Good or bad credit!

There are over 840,000 different poses in yoga, although only a few are practiced during a class. Breathing is extremely important while performing yoga, Febbraro said. “For every movement, there is a breath. In yogaic philosophy, breath equals energy,” Febbraro said. Many students interested in starting the semester on the right foot fill her Tuesday night class, Febbraro said. Daniel Ingram, a second year grad uate student in the School of Public Health, likes the euphoric feeling he experiences after Febbraro’s yoga class. “It’s like you’re walking on air!” he said.
