    Yoga question

    Zozo, Thanks! Crow/crane is one of those poses that looks very impressive but is actually quite easy if you have the right teacher. It just boils down to physics - finding the right position where the weight distribution ensures you dont tip over. A bit about teachnique to engage your core...

    Yoga question

    I am phobic about looking up. I feel the only way I wont crash into my chin is if I am looking at the ground to see what it is up to. My yoga teacher says I am the only person he knows who does crow with my gaze focused on the ground. I love the cue about tipping forward. Once the knee "feels...

    A-Jock's Famous Track Workout for the Unrunner NEW AND IMPROVED!

    A-jock, I could only attempt this if I was with you at the track. I'd need validation that a human being could do this and still be alive. :) Until around when I moved from India, I used to be an intensity junkie. I have the unique distinction of converting a yoga teacher into one. My yoga...

    Yoga question

    I am glad you are enjoying the discovery of yoga! Yoga counts most likely in the list of top ten things I learned to do. Here is a tip by a lady I enjoy watching. This is close to the way I do crow, but not quite the same. I make contact at the inner side of the leg at the knee joint and...

    I must respectfully disagree that steady state doesnt do much for your future fitness. Functional fitness is not just the ability to sprint after a bus (HIIT), but also to walk home after your car breaks down (Steady State). Steady state cardio means working in your fat-burn/aerobic heart...

    I so agree. Kaiev, thanks for the feedback on the book. I have not received my DVD yet. I let Mary at totalfitnessdvds know she can ship a bunch of stuff I ordered together, including ilaria's stuff that has not been released.

    New workouts in Digital Downloads

    I love the convenience and flexibility of downloads. When I think of the resources that will be saved if media becomes obsolete that is a huge saving for the earth's resources. (i am the type that carries my bags to buy groceries and my own mug to the cafe). Freedom from DVDs is a space saving...

    I couldn't help laughing out loud. I don't mean to be snarky at all. You are both strong ladies who are never afraid to speak your minds and I admire you both for this trait. I tend to be the one who thinks it is my job to maintain peace in the world. Morning star, I tried hard to reason...

    Yogis Behaving Badly

    I have read that article before. In India, we use the Sanskrit term yogi or yogini to mean a spiritual seeker who has attained significant progress in his or her pursuit. If you can stand on your head and do sun salutations or even if you are very proficient and can teach people asanas and...

    Found a new yoga source with affordable and good downloads

    For some reason yoga seems to be adopting downloads faster than the rest of fitness. I am a long time yoga today enthusiast where a one hour yoga session download is $4 for non-members and just $3 for members. The production values can compete with professionally done DVDs. There is no music...
