Glo, formerly called YogaGlo, brings together world-class instructors who are spurred by the vision of everyone living to their fullest potential. Their method to achieve this: deliver instant access, empowering Pilates, meditation, and yoga videos to your home. As much as you might love an in-person class at a yoga studio, a yoga class online with Glo offers numerous advantages that make the service definitely worth considering whether you’re a bright-eyed newbie or a long-time yogi.
A yoga class online costs are significantly less than one at the gym.
The monthly subscription to Glo (Yogaglo) costs $18 per month. Compare this to the $10 to $20 average for a single drop-in class at a studio. Even unlimited studio memberships cost more than the online subscription: usually between $100 and $150 per month, according to Yoga Baron.
You aren’t limited to what a gym offers for class variety.
Glo began in 2009, and as of April 2019 boasted over 2,000 yoga videos, filmed in their physical studio in California. While at a gym you have to choose from what the instructors are teaching that day, Glo has plenty of styles to diversify your practice, offering challenging Pilates classes, two meditation styles, and twelve yoga styles.
You can customize your classes.
Do you want to follow a class from a particular instructor? Is today’s focus more on core strength than flexibility? Can you only fit a twenty-minute sequence? The filter on Glo helps you find just the right class for how you’re feeling. If you don’t know what you want to do, you can play with the Discover option.
You learn from dozens of certified, expert teachers on Glo
From Guerilli Yoga founder Marc Holzman and 90 Monkeys co-founder Amy Ippoliti to worldwide dancer Mark Osmundsen and elite level climber Olivia Hsu, you can find a pantheon of respected instructors of all ages and sizes in Glo’s yoga classes. Online accessibility puts these world-class instructors right in your living room.
The convenience is unbeatable.
February resolution slump be gone! Yoga classes online, as opposed to yoga classes at a physical studio, allow you to practice consistently, freed from the excuses of geography or time. Rather than having to practice only when the gym has a class, you can break out your mat and refine your chaturangas anytime.
You can work at your level, not worrying about what others are doing.
In a yoga studio, we tend to compare ourselves to our classmates and sometimes stress that we’re not striking the pose as well as they are. When you follow a yoga class online, that pressure lifts off you, so you can focus 100% on you and how your body is moving. If you fall, laugh and shake it off!
You can take your practice with you when you travel.
Fitness tends to fall by the wayside during the holidays or vacations, partly because finding the right place and motivation can be a pain. Having your yoga class online removes that stress and allows you to keep to your yoga routine.
You can make your practice your own.
With online yoga, you really own your yoga practice, from choosing the class your body is feeling to personalizing your home yoga space. This, in turn, motivates you to further improve your strength and flexibility through the classes.
Lots of Love
