Boomers, more than ever before are taking up Yoga. They realize it is one of the most efficient and cost effective ways to address the body/mind connection. They find that by attending a yoga class, even if only once a week, this complete system of self improvement keeps them flexible, relaxed and with a more positive attitude.

According to the much respected magazine, Yoga Journal, the statistics in the United States reveal that:

...6.9% of U.S. adults, or 15.8 million people, practice some form of yoga

...Of current non-practitioners, nearly 8%, or 18.3 million Americans, say they are very or extremely interested in yoga, triple the number from the 2004 study. And 4.1% of non-practitioners, or about 9.4 million people, say they will definitely try yoga within the next year.
