Songdo yoga studio in Incheon: my first headstand at Yogacoola

I've been doing home yoga for a long time. It's great to do in the morning, and I could practice anytime as long as I rolled out a mat — that's why it became something I did consistently. This time, I got the chance to try Yogacoola in Songdo, so I went and checked it out. 😊

Where is Yogacoola in Songdo, Incheon?

Yogacoola withvancity is on the 5th floor of Seowoon Plaza, 114 Haedoji-ro, Yeonsu-gu, Incheon. Check the details and class schedule below ⬇️

Locker room and shower room at Yogacoola

I sweat a lot, so I was worried about whether I'd be able to wash up afterward, but Yogacoola's locker room and shower room turned out to be really clean!

How a Songdo studio class differed from home yoga

When I practiced alone at home, it felt more like stretching, but moving together with everyone following the teacher's guidance made me focus much more on each individual pose.

My backbends have always been stiff, but matching the teacher's breathing let me hold the pose longer and go deeper. At moments where I would have stopped if I were alone, practicing together made me push through one more time!

Syncing my breath with others in the same space turned out to be a much bigger boost than I expected, and it felt like a deeper practice than doing it alone at home.

Two teachers, two classes: ALIGMENT FLOW and ENERGY FLOW

I tried both the ALIGMENT FLOW class and the ENERGY FLOW class at Yogacoola. Even though it's the same yoga, each teacher had a different vibe and flow, so each class had its own charm.

I also found out this place offers flying yoga. There aren't many places that offer it, but they had all the equipment set up. Flying yoga, done hanging from a hammock in the air — I want to try that next time.

Honestly, I was confident going in, since I've kept up yoga steadily, just skipping the hard poses. I figured that after doing it at home for so long, I'd be able to keep up at least somewhat... but once I actually tried it, there were so many poses I couldn't do, and it caught me off guard. 😂

And this time, I successfully did a headstand for the first time!! It's a pose I was too scared to even attempt before, but thanks to the instructor and the fellow practitioners doing yoga alongside me, I was able to pull it off ^^

Why yoga at Yogacoola made me sweat this much

What I really noticed during this experience was that I sweated so much more than I do at home! Maybe because everyone was focused together, the intensity felt much higher, and before I knew it, my body would heat up and sweat would pour down as I held each pose. I felt like my body would definitely improve if I kept this up.

It felt like I used way more energy than when I practice alone at home! It really felt like a proper workout. If you're looking for yoga for weight loss in Songdo, I think you should definitely experience this level of exertion 💪
