What is Cy-Yo and where does it come from?
Cy-Yo (Cycling-Yoga) is a workout program that begins with a yoga warm up in order to invigorate the muscles and lubricate the joints. After the yoga flow warm up is completed, a 40-45 minute indoor cycling class is next. During the indoor cycling class, particular attention is paid to energy centers in the body, the use of transformational language, and focusing our mind and spirit to enhance our physical results. After the indoor cycling class, there is a yoga flow cool down in order to elongate the muscles and focus the mind, body, and spirit. Classes usually take around an hour to complete. Cy-Yo was developed north of Boston by a fitness instructor who is certified in yoga and indoor cycling. In trying to bridge the chasm between Western style no-pain no-gain philosophy and Eastern style mind, body and spirit as one concepts, Cy-Yo was created. Cy-Yo offers the physical and spiritual benefits of yoga as well as the cardio, fat burning benefits of an indoor cycling class.
