Well, that was certainly a Super Bowl. Spoiler alert: congrats to the winning team, the Denver Broncos! As usual we were on the lookout for the yoga (between Puppy and Kitten Bowl action) and we found it, sometimes in the oddest of places — the ads. All in all, it’s no Om-ing Jeff Bridges but a [...]
Yoga in advertising
The moment we know you’ve all been waiting for…Super Bowl ads are here!

There may already be a duck pose in yoga, but that won’t stop a major insurance company from co-opting it for their latest ad campaign. It’s Aflac’s new “Duck Does Yoga” commercial, and debuted its little duckie tail feathers on the yoga mat, and television screen, just recently on August 5th. Apparently, the duck is still [...]
What’s the rule again? Everyone say it together now: No cell phones in yoga class! You’ve seen this one, right? Boy that little pink yoga pig is really tapping on our last nadi.

“Can our flexible waistband survive the upward facing bottom pose?” is the question every yoga pants company in the world should be asking.
