Personal Best KarateÂ’s unveils Hatha Yoga Program -
A Low Impact Contrast to Kickboxing
DATELINE: NORTON, EASTON AND FOXBORO, MA, ISSUED JUNE 22, 2001Â
Personal Best Karate, with locations in Norton, Foxboro and South Easton, has recently unveiled their latest adult program, Hatha Yoga, which emphasizes body posture and breathing techniques. Personal Best Karate, serving the Southeastern Massachusetts area since 1991, encourages the participation of women, men, children, parents, and grandparents because all can benefit from the study of Martial Arts.
Reduce Stress and More
As a low impact contrast to Personal Best KarateÂ’s Te Geri Kickboxing program for adults, Hatha Yoga consists of stretching, breathing, yoga poses and guided meditation. Not only can Hatha Yoga reduce stress through these relaxation techniques, in Western medicine it has been touted as an effective way to reduce blood pressure, lower cholesterol and increase circulation. But thatÂ’s not all. Hatha Yoga also builds strength and endurance while increasing muscle tone.
Novices Welcome
Personal Best Karate offers the Hatha Yoga Program on Fridays, from 9:30 a. m. to 10:30 a. m. and walk-ins are welcome. The cost is $11 per class. Participants also have the option of registering for upcoming sessions at a reduced rate. Beginners Yoga is now running through June 22nd. An Aerobic Yoga session will begin July 6th and run through July 27th. Participants should bring a blanket, towel and sticky mat (available for purchase at Personal Best Karate).
Certified yoga instructor (and Reiki Master Teacher) Mary Whelton, who has studied yoga for greater than 20 years, will be leading the classes at Personal Best Karate. WheltonÂ’s primary Hatha Yoga approach is to bring awareness of spinal alignment to participants while relaxing the mind and body through conscious breathing.
Revitalize Your Health and Spirit
Previously captivating an entire generation of youngsters with the “Karate Kid” movie, martial arts have come full circle and back to parents, grandparents and other grown-ups looking to revitalize their health and spirit. Personal Best Karate’s fun and challenging adult programs such as Karate, Tae Kwon Do and Te Geri Kickboxing have experienced an unparalleled surge in participation.
Personal Best KarateÂ’s martial arts, Exec-U-Fit programs and Running Club are geared toward anyone looking to gain the fitness for life with high energy, good health and increased stamina as well as weight loss and increased muscle tone.
For further information about Exec-U-Fit or other Personal Best Karate programs, please visit the website at www. personalbestkarate. com or contact Personal Best Karate at (508) 285-5425.
Harmony of Community and Martial Arts
From the “Turkey Brigade” which helps feed over 500 families each Thanksgiving to raising over $7,500 for Chuck Norris’ “Kick Drugs out of America” to providing nearly 1,000 toys annually for “Toys for Tots”, Personal Best Karate has made it an integral part of its mission to make a positive impact on the community. Personal Best Karate embraces this philosophy and several charitable events are planned at the locations in the near future.
Control, Confidence and Strength
Personal Best Karate encourages the participation of women, men, children, parents, and grandparents because all can benefit from the study of martial arts.
