Namaste, Muggles: Harry Potter YOGA is now a thing

There’s loving something, and then there’s total and utter commitment to the cause – and Isabel Beltran is clearly a die-hard Harry Potter fan.

She only went and taught a Harry Potter-themed yoga class last weekend, complete with wands and a sorting hat.

Isabel teaches weekly classes at Circle Brewing Co., in her native Austin, and she decided to do something extra special to mark Halloween and the anniversary of James and Lily Potter’s deaths.

Aided by her sister, Ximena Larkin, Isabel organised a special Harry Potter-themed class for her regular clients.

The class used ‘wands’ throughout, and even pulled poses inspired by the hit book franchise – while ‘the tree’ was replaced by ‘The Whomping Willow’, participants were encouraged to summon their inner Patronus.

 

Beyond honored and blessed for all the recognition we've been getting for our recent magical, Harry Potter yoga class.

Isabel closed the class with a dramatic reading from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, but the magic didn’t end there.

The class also got to pose with their very own Prisoner of Azkaban selfie frame and check out the Potions Station.

While the session was intended to be a once-off, it proved so popular that Isabel is going to run with the idea – and slots at her Pints & Poses classes have been completely booked up.

One word: epic.
