    Stubborn Belly Fat

    Try some kundalini yoga... check out Ravi & Ana's dvds on amazon. They've done wonders for my stress... and my fitness levels.

    Speaking of Kickboxing-DVD Advice

    I recently purchased a kickboxing dvd called "Thrive", which is lots of fun and very high energy. I got it at Borders.

    Yoga Check In Dec. 12

    Wondering what "funky" practice you did to your new age music, Lori! This is funny. My DD had a gymnastics competition today and felt nervous. So I tried to teach her the meditation from kundalini yoga: think Sat when you breathe in, and Nam when you breathe out, closing your eyes, looking...

    Yoga Lovers & Cross Trainers (week of Dec 1)

    Hi all! Last night, I did Ravi Ana's Dance the Chakras... that dvd actually makes me feel so graceful and powerful. I know Lori mentioned that she likes the woo-woo factor... I love the woo-woo factor in the ravi/ana dvds. Today, I had a morning vinyasa class, and she did some new balancing...

    Yoga Lovers & Cross Trainers (week of Dec 1)

    It's a rainy day here in NY... at this time of year, I'd prefer to see a little snow. Anyway, Lori, is Candlelight yoga more of a lunar kind of flow? (just wondering why it's called candlelight). Yesterday I did 40 min premix of Patrick's Hard Work Conditioning (love him!), followed by the...

    Yoga Lovers & Cross Trainers (week of Dec 1)

    Guess what? Today was a rest day for me! Unless you count crazy holiday shopping as working out. I keep checking out the ravi/ana pre-orders on amazon... I"m so tempted to buy them! Is it freezing cold where you are? It was in the teens when I walked my DD, with dogs, to school. I need...

    Yoga Lovers & Cross Trainers (week of Dec 1)

    Waves to Vee, Jerry, Lori, Lori, RapidBreath, Marcy, and Belinda. Marcy, those new Mark Blanchard dvds look pretty awesome. I do so many live classes that I don't do many dvds (other than the ravi/ana ones), but I like the fact that the NFL guy is in one of them! Anway, after my...

    The thing about yoga that drives me nuts!

    Yoga clicks with me too. There are SO MANY varieties... vinyasa, astanga, kundalini, iyengar, kriplu, etc... each with a different intent and meaning. Plus, you have the differences inherent in the teaching styles of each instructor. I highly recommend live classes for anyone starting out...

    Yoga Lovers & Cross Trainers (week of Dec 1)

    Waves shoulder-fried arms to Vee, Jerry, Tami, Lori, Lori, Rapidbreath, and Belinda. I've been in a challenging-myself mood. So yesterday I did the first half of Christie's Step Heaven, followed by Ravi & Ana's Total Stretch. This a.m., I lost my mind and did back-to-back yoga classes: 1...

    Yoga Lovers & Cross Trainers (week of Dec 1)

    Sorry to hear you've been too busy to get in your yoga, Vee. Hopefully this week! Anyway, yesterday I went to my usual Vinyasa class. I usually go on Saturdays, but was so sore from the special Friday class that I took a day off. That class was the most intense yoga class I've ever taken...

    Yoga Lovers & Crosstrainers (Week of Nov 24)

    Well, Lori, I just googled kapalabhati breathing and realized that it IS breath of fire. Have you ever tried the ravi/ana dvds? They incorporate alot of that.

    Yoga Lovers & Crosstrainers (Week of Nov 24)

    Hope everyone enjoyed their Thanksgiving. All I did yesterday was take a long walk with DH and the dogs, as I've got some kind of sinus thing, yuck. There's a special class at the Y today, given by a guy who's supposed to be really awesome, so I'm hoping to go... Lori, I do alot of...

    Yoga Lovers & Crosstrainers (Week of Nov 24)

    Morning everyone! Yesterday was DH's birthday (carvel cake, yum!), but I did manage to squeeze in 40 mins of All Body Cardio (Twombly). I got this one in a trade and really enjoy it! Anyway, today I have my 1 1/2 hour iyengar-based yoga class. The instructor is brilliant, so I'm really...

    Yoga Lovers & Cross-Trainers (week of 18 Nov)

    Well, I had some pretty good DOMS in my back from yesterday's vinyasa class. We had a sub instructor and she led us through quite a vigorous workout! So this a.m. I just did 30 mins of a Christi step... and am hoping to squeeze in a ravi/ana (probably yoga bliss hips) before I wolf down Friday...

    Yoga Lovers & Cross-Trainers (week of 18 Nov)

    Hi fellow yoga lovers! Didn't check in yesterday, but I did 30 mins of strike zone. Was hoping to do a ravi/ana at night, but things got too crazy. Plus, I'm fighting a cold. My 1 1/2 hr iyengar based class was brilliant, as usual. She really focused on the upper spine/shoulder area with...

    Yoga Lovers & Cross-Trainers (week of 18 Nov)

    Hello all! A little bit about my fitness regime now, which has changed alot over the past year. First an early morning walk with my dogs every day (walking my DD to school, then continuing for 45 mins). Relatively short (30 min) cardio/strength circuits about 3X a week. Strength about 1X...

    Calling Yoga Lovers...Check-In related

    I would LOVE a yoga check-in. For the past year, I've been adding in much more yoga: live vinyasa classes, dvds, audio workouts, and recently I'm getting very addicted to the ravi/ana kundalini offerings. Sharing thoughts etc. about different yoga workouts and styles would be great.
