　　This is the latest yoga class at the moment. The yoga teacher said that yoga originated in India more than 5,000 years ago. It has always been practiced by men, and it was passed down from generation to generation by masters and apprentices. Later, more and more women began to practice yoga. Female practitioners often ask the master (usually male ) Some questions, such as: “Can I practice yoga during menstruation? ”The master had no way to answer these questions, because all yoga movements were arranged based on male body characteristics and physiological structure. The master could only say vaguely: "You cannot practice some inverted postures, but you can practice some simple ones. ”

　　Five years ago, an American yoga master felt that the relationship between yoga and the female body was not that simple, so he began to research. In 2009, he created a new yoga course called "Female Regenerative Yoga". It is completely different from previous courses such as female physical therapy yoga and female health yoga. All postures are based on the female body structure. Through some hip movement exercises and breathing, the purpose of maintaining the female body is achieved.

Power yoga emphasizes the combination of strength and flexibility and requires deep breathing exercises.
