, NC - Seven multi-colored hammocks hang from the ceiling of the Karma Yoga Pilates fitness center in Burlington. The hammocks
are used as an aid to assist in the balance and posture of each participant. Hammock yoga is relatively new to the exercise
scene and the triad studio is the only one on the southeast to have this type of exercise apparatus.
Master yoga and pilates trainer Arleen Garrett brought the idea to her studio in April of 2008. Garrett who competed for ten years as
a professionals body builder, and was also a trainer for the 2005 winter Olympics understands the importance of fitness. Her
clientele span the generational gap from those in their twenties to those in their eighties.
The classes run two times a day Monday through Friday. She caters to groups as well as individuals. For more information, visit her website at www.coacharleen.com
