Warning: You may be appalled, amused, and/or embarrassed by the following. Or a combination of all three!

These last two superfresh styles of yoga go hand in hand, hand to mouth, and hand in yoga pants. While you won’t see them on official summer yoga festival schedules (Hanuman, Wanderlust, Bhakti Fest), you will witness their gleeful practice in public.

A Whole Foods Rap! Er…sounds lame, right? We had our doubts. But this is hilarious! So fresh n’ so cheeky. Has us jonesin for an organic fair trade soy latte and a vegan gingersnap cookie.
