Today's question comes via email from Ludmila

hi! Melissa i have a new question for you.can you tell me if yoga helps to create muscles in my body thank you melissa!

Yes, yoga definitely creates strength in your body. A lot of the standing postures like the Warriors and Goddess Victory Squat. The chaturanga is great for strengthening your upper body. We have two Namaste Yoga classes that focus specifically on building strength.
