Strip off and start connecting with your body with naked yoga.
Take your mindfulness next-level.

I'm a big fan of naked yoga - there's something incredibly powerful about stripping off and doing some stretching with some other dudes.
Lately, my naked yoga guide has been Adam from Juicy Yoga for Blokes.
Adam's classes bring together a friendly and tactile group of guys, combining quality yoga with a low-level horny vibe that leans into the sexual energy of a room full of naked men.
Adam is, in every sense of the word, a character. He's got a larger-than-life personality that can be a little full-on one-on-one but in a class like this it's exactly the kind of energy you need to keep everything flowing and upbeat and fun.
Adam isn't new to the world of naked yoga - he used to run regular sessions in Soho but Juicy Yoga is his latest incarnation. It's sex-positive yoga for sex-positive men - boners are celebrated and consensual physical intimacy is encouraged.
The partner-work helps - regularly switching who you're working with means that you get to spend time with everyone in the room. When you're skin to skin with another man, there's really nowhere to hide - you have no choice but to allow yourself to be vulnerable, to be present.
For me, this yoga class is one of those examples of "doing the healing" and not "talking about the healing required".
Therapy is great, but talking about your trauma, your isolation, your alienation, or your loneliness can only take you so far. Once you've been able to identify and articulate what you're feeling, you need to do something about it.
Getting your clothes off, doing some yoga, and connecting with other men is one way in which you can "do the healing" - it's community-building at its most primal.
As well as a weekly class in Vauxhall, Adam is also hosting a fortnightly Juicy Yoga session at my studio in Hoxton.
The first of these sessions was this week and there were four of us on the mats plus Adam guiding us through the poses. It was hot and sweaty and horny - exactly the way that I like my naked yoga sessions.
