3. Tantrum Yoga
Does the very thought of trying to be still, centered and serene for an hour-plus fill you with a strange and nameless rage? Then maaaaybe yoga isn’t for you. But maaaaybe Tantrum Yoga is!
Created by LA yoga teacher Hemalayaa (just the one name, like Cher), Tantrum Yoga is all about connecting with your inner three-year-old and letting rip like Mummy just refused to buy you some Haribo Tangfastics. Screaming, yelling, foot-stamping and chest-thumping are all encouraged. (You’re still not getting any Haribo, though.)

“We are emotional beings,” explains Hemalayaa, “and there are times we need to let go of emotion, especially old stuff that’s sitting in there, festering. Otherwise it gets stuck in our bodies and could turn into stress or disease, etc. I’m committed to being in the best state of health I can be in, and if that means I have to scream every now and then to feel great, I do!”
Admit it: you well fancy a go.
