When you think of yoga in the U.S., do you think of plumbers and mechanics? Not likely. We still have Yoga Journal covers to contend with. Nevertheless, the image of Western yoga has been stealthily evolving to include people of all sizes, colors, ages, creeds and apparently, professions. There’s a special yoga class catering to [...]
Meditations on Mutations
We sometimes believe presenting without comment is a bit irresponsible since there’s so much fabricated bs out there (“fake news!”…ugh) and it’s hard to know if anyone knows their asana from their elbow. In sharing this, well, we could add our own witty footnotes but really it just speaks for itself. All we’ll say is [...]
We can not escape Goat Yoga. We shall never escape GOAT YOGA! Here’s Carrie Underwood and Brad Paisley enjoying the trendiest yoga style ever known to the mat. The duo hosted the Country Music Awards for the 10th time on Wednesday night and answered a viewer’s question about how they get ready for their duties. [...]
The zen-est thing to happen to fast food since Subway’s yoga mat bread. It’s so ridiculous it could be true. Chicken Nugget Yoga has taken wing! That’s a terrible pun. We’re very sorry. But not as sorry as we are about this new yoga blend. Chicken Nugget Yoga* is, of course, a joke (we think!) created [...]
When many new health trends help you detox this one encourages the opposite. We can’t even blame America for this. Well, not entirely. More on that in a minute. BeerYoga, or rather BierYoga, is not the yoga in a brewery craze you’ve seen frothing up everywhere. Nope. It’s yoga with beer. And if you haven’t [...]
Yep. Add it to the growing list of themed-yoga classes, Harry Potter is just another distraction. Students show up at a brewery (another hot trend) decked out in HP gear, are treated to a reading of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows and are given a magic wand. Like we said, just anoth….WAIT…a MAGIC WAND?? [...]
Old McYogi had a farm…om-ee-om-ee-ooom. There’s yoga with cats, yoga with dogs, even yoga with bunnies and now there’s yoga with goats! It’s actually a bit sweeter than it sounds (though we imagine a little bit smellier, too). For Lainey Morse, owner of a No Regrets Farm in Oregon, pairing yoga and goats makes perfect [...]
A DJ, a hip-hop star and a yogi walk into a nightclub. Welcome to the era of Namasdrake a yoga Drake-themed yoga class where “Hotline Bling” is just another name for the dopest new yoga pose on instagram. We have to say, these themed yoga classes always crack us up. From raging to emojis to [...]
As oxymoronic as it sounds, we keep hearing more about rage yoga, and every time we do, this is what we picture: The Power Of The Mind! So. OK. We’ll bite. A very rage-less bite. Tell us, what is Rage Yoga? [reyj yoh-guh] noun: a practice involving stretching, positional exercises and bad humor, with the [...]
