Yoga has been embraced so thoroughly by Western cultures that it has spawned unusual yoga experiences to better target specific groups and interests. Since Americans especially thrive off of anything remotely original, it comes as no surprise that yogis and bigger studios have put together unique programs to spice up this spiritual practice.
From yoga classes that take place on bodies of water rather than the sturdy ground to sessions that include one's beloved pet and even more modern interpretations that forego traditional music for punk rock, unusual yoga experiences are certainly not far and few in between. Although many people prefer straightforward classes, these unusual yoga experiences speak to those who either prefer something different or are trying to enjoy the practice in a different way.
