What's the sexiest way to shape your body While I tried to focus my gaze on the wall, my stomach rolls, or just about anything other than the two dudes next to me throughout my first naked yoga class at Naked in Motion , accidentally catching a glimpse of a dangling appendage during Downward Dog was inevitable.
Willow, the instructor, helped calm my nerves. It was obvious that she truly cared for her students and believed in what the class could help certain people accomplish. Oh, and everyone is still completely nude.
You know, super casual. In what might be my bravest act ever, I waltzed up to a group of 10 or so nude men standing in a circle during social time and started chattering nervously.
I quickly learned not to do this. To my surprise, the guys were pretty normal and kept their eyes on mine, or at least the ones I could see in front of me.
Many were first-timers, with all seemingly normal jobs. They also ran the gamut in terms of age, with the oldest in his 80s and the youngest in college.
The only big, glaring discrepancy? There were at least 20 men and five women, including me. I also wondered if this was how the Smurfette felt. A guy approached me after social time mind you, I was still fully nude and he was in gym shorts. I should also mention he was one of the guys who was, er, noticeably excited during tree pose. Begrudgingly, I bumped back breaking that no-touch rule as he proceeded to ask where I lived and other too-personal questions. Mid-sentence, I told him I needed to poop. That was the end of that. Shacottha and I worked out alongside one another for the better part of the first half of class, which delved into a series of burpees , push-ups, and sprints.
After the warm-up, we moved into what could best be described as a grown-up game of capture-the-flag. I was grinning in between heaving breaths; the game was the most fun I had working out in a long time. While most guys were pretty timid to engage in combat with me most sweetly asked if I was OK after class , there was one in particular who seemed to find joy in slamming his foam sword on my back. Maybe I looked like his ex-wife. I stuck around after class to watch the full-on fighters suit-up a near hour-long process and fight with actual swords.
Seiji seemed to be paying more attention to me and my pitiful leg lifts, abs pikes, and glute pulses than anyone else in class who, by the way, were almost all a decade or two older than me. Regardless, these older ladies were absolutely killing it in comparison to me.
A mixture of classic Pilates moves, yoga stretches , plyometrics, and dancing, the class was arguably the most hybrid-style workout I took during my experience. And those two twisty bungee ropes dangling in front of each chair? Despite the challenging series of movements, the ropes made the workout way more fun than a traditional Pilates class. Not unlike naked yoga or sword fighting, the studio had a strong sense of community—I could sense a warm, welcoming atmosphere the second I walked through the door.
No, seriously, it actually exists.
