The Eight Limbs of Yoga Teacher Stereotypes.
by Jimmy Gleacher on Apr 13, 2012
Yogi + Bro = Brogi A year has passed since I wrote, “Broga…Yoga for Bros,” and the trend of regular guys doing yoga has yet to surrender. Yoga studios are sweatier and smellier than ever, and UFO (Unidentified Floppy Objects) sightings have soared due to loose fitting shorts. Legit and beloved male yogis like Chris [...]

College Tuition or $12 for a Dozen Organic Eggs? ~ Rob Thomas

But through the entire day I was literally nauseated and stressed out. Deep in my being I knew I was lying to myself. I did not want to be Yamantaka. I did not want a yidam (sounds sexy but..). All these prayers and throwing rice and flowers was very quaint, but no one will ever describe me as quaint. It’s just not me.

Yoga Fashion Police.
by Brooke Kochel on Mar 6, 2012
Don’t wear your favorite yoga pants without a nice, cozy thong underneath it. Just remember, every time you wear them and you do a nice hip opener, those threads are getting loose alongside your thighs. And let’s assume you’re washing them after every use (let’s just go ahead and pray you’re washing them). As your body frees from its limitations, so do yo’ pants girlfrien’. It’s the urban legend you’ve heard about. The naked at school nightmare you dream about. It’s taking “playing doctor” to new cosmic heights. It’s happened to me, it could happen to you.

I get to see what in-through-the-nose, out-through-the-nose can teach me. And I get to work against my natural inclination, which is to get personal and competitive and think things like “Your Standing Bow’s a wobbly joke” and “If you think that Full Locust looks good, wait’ll you see mine, punk.” It’s best that I overcome such hateful things, and you—you generous sonofabitch, you—you give me that opportunity.
