Hot Yoga Practitioner. Charlotte, NC.

Benjamin Ligan, also known as Ben Ligan, is a marketing graduate of The Ohio State University Fisher College of Business, currently based in Charlotte, North Carolina.

He is a regular hot yoga practitioner. This blog is where he writes about the practice from the inside — what happens in the room, why the heat matters, how breathwork carries over into running and into staying composed when things get difficult.

Professionally, Benjamin works in financial services in Charlotte, with a background in Sarbanes-Oxley compliance and client service operations. He competed for four years on the Ohio State Men’s Club Volleyball team and is currently training for the Charleston Half Marathon.

He is not an instructor. He does not offer coaching. He practices hot yoga because it works, and he writes about it because paying attention to something makes you better at it.
