Does Yoga Actually Help You Lose Weight?

Описание: As a yoga teacher and a personal trainer, I get this question all the time:
“Can I lose fat by practicing yoga?”

Or I hear things like:
“I want to lose weight, so I’ve started going to yoga classes twice a week.”

Because this comes up so often, I decided to make this video — not to sell yoga as a fat-loss tool, and not to dismiss it either, but to look at it honestly through physiology, movement, and real-life practice.

This video is for anyone who wants to make more informed choices about how — and why — they practice when fat loss is one of their goals.
