Yoga with weights? Yeah, it's a thing.

I spent last weekend learning how to teach Yoga Sculpt — a class at CorePower Yoga that involves weights.

I dig weights and yoga, so I was intrigued. However I must admit I was a bit skeptical, as these two practices serve me in very different ways. Combining them? I just wasn't so sure.
