Top 100 Sports Trends in October

From Immersive Yoga Studios to All-Terrain Electric Bicycles

— October 12, 2015 — Lifestyle
These October 2015 sports trends range from immersive yoga studios to all-terrain electric bicycles that feature sleek aesthetics without sacrificing performance. Following in the footsteps of last month's canine and feline-focused exercise programs, these October 2015 sports trends include Jana Webb 'Joga' yoga sessions -- targeting professional athletes -- as well as Earth's Power's 'Yogascape' classes that blend stretching moves with virtual technology.

When looking at the month's performance gear launches, a focus on style and comfort is key with October sneaker releases. In addition to aesthetics and performance, the month's athletic uniforms and accessories are also embracing sustainable material choices while promoting socially conscious manufacturing practices.

Furthermore, niche examples like app-connected basketballs and football-inspired breakfast menus illustrate the magnitude of society's sport obsession and prove that it is a lifestyle for most rather than just a part-time hobby.
