Whilst I enjoy reading your excellent magazine I am sad to note that we males get only a paucity of coverage. In some yoga studios there are classes where men are encouraged and welcomed. My studio — the Yoga Loft in Hinckley — has a good few men taking part in many classes. For example, on Monday night there were nine men in a class of 24 participants; it is extremely rare that I find myself the sole male in a class. The head of the studio also employs at least three male teachers. So, come on, let's have a bit more encouragement for the male species. Yoga is not just for ladies, although at times it may seem so.
