We’re often asked by people skeptical of yoga, "Can it really help me {lose weight, get fit, heal an injury}?"Of course, we always say yoga can do all that and more. So we decided to put our money where our mouth is and give three novices a yoga makeover. No, we won’t be putting them in the best booty-boosting yoga pants or applying the newest to-die-for vegan mineral makeup. We’re talking about a soul-transforming makeover; one that will introduce the participants to yoga while addressing an issue that’s affecting their quality of life.
After puttingout a call for volunteers, we found three brave souls who fit the bill. They are Leah Castella, a lawyer who wants to lose weight; Edith Chan, a triathlete who wants to prevent injuries and burnout; and Mark Webb, a lawyer with a knee injury.
