When I was doing Yoga, I definitely noticed a difference in my body. I really enjoyed it a lot.

It took a couple of months before I noticed a difference. But it definitely tones your body. Some of the poses require a lot of strength and as you progress you hold them longer which helps tone your body.

I didn't stay with it, but I went to classes with two different instructors. One of them had us doing very flowy movements and it was lame. The other had us doing tough poses and really holding them. When I was done I was TIRED. I wish I'd stayed with it because I think it would have made a difference. You really 'feel' your muscles, if that makes any sense- some you didn't even know you had!

I always love when the instructor says relax your jaw...I did not even know I was flexing it, but I always am, then the jaw release feels so good

My instructor says that it doesn't just tone your muscles - it lengthens them, so they get leaner and longer, which makes you look thinner.

In order to see slimming and toning effects, you need to do a type of yoga that focuses on strength. I would look into a class that says power yoga or Astanga.

I was going to Yoga for Life on Belle Mead road..off of 347. I love their classes and noticed a total change in stength and toning. I had to give it up b/c it was too expensive. $16 a class or ten pack for 130. In order to see real reuslts you should go at least twice a week.
But I love them there..it's Ashtanga a fast paced yoga that burns and tones.
