Why are so many people flocking to Colorado yoga studios even during a time of dire economic straits? Financial analysts are not entirely sure, but whatever the reason, Colorado yoga classes seem practically recession-proof these days.
It could be that the holistic mind-body regimen is simply too physically beneficial for eager enthusiasts to pass up. After all, the Yoga Journal recently reported that 18.3 million Americans admit to being interested in trying the regimen.
This figure, which was derived from 2008 survey data, is triple that calculated just four years previously. Obviously, yoga is on the up and up. That is what two Denver-area yoga instructors recently told CNNMoney, anyway.
The duo opened their first studio in 1999. Now, they operate a 40-instructor center, explaining that yoga's popularity has not slackened off lately.
"We just continue to grow. We are seeing a continual expansion," the pair told the news source. "During the recession, we had our best years, and that was really phenomenal."
A recent IBISWorld report estimated that the number of yoga studios in the U.S. will top 25,500 in 2011.
