And here we were thinking only Yoga Don Bikram lived the extravagant life of Rolls Royces and Rolexes. Beth June Shaw, marketing guru and captain of the YogaFit ship, must’ve had $1.349 million burning a hole in the hidden pocket of her Lululemon pants, because that’s what she paid on Jan. 22 for a three-bedroom, two-bath at 736 Calle De Arboles Dr. in Torrance, from the very regal sounding Herbert and Kathryn Goodrich. Since the housing market is so in the gutter right now maybe this was a great deal*, though for that much she could’ve bought up all of Detroit. Or purchased her own island which is probably what old Herb and Kat are up to as we speak, after pawning their jewels and buying up as many gold bars as would fit in their suitcases.
As you can see from Google Maps street view above, the new crib is either a lovely split level home or a vacant dirt pile. We’re hoping for $1.3 mil it’s the former.
*probably not though - according to Blockshopper the Median Sale Price for the last 12 mos. in Torrance is $585,000.

cranking out all those “yoga teachers” who learn all about how to teach in one weekend seems very lucrative!
am going to borrow this for the Yoga Journey, giving you credit, of course…..
hi linda, absolutely! be my guest
thanks for making us feel all warm and fuzzy inside
Ok look. Beth Shaw does great things for the world. Her teacher training program requires community service from all of its trainees. Shaw is on the board for the National Humane Society and is also on the board of the American Civil Liberties Union. She and her company donate a ton to charity and provide FREE teacher training to individuals working with at-risk communities (ie: social workers, special education teachers, etc.) Do some homework before you criticize.
And in response to Linda, YogaFit does not “crank out” teachers in one weekend. It’s a Registered Yoga School with the National Yoga Alliance at the 200hour and 500hour level.
