Just another day in the life. Equinox teacher Briohny Smyth demonstrates, in this hot new marketing ploy, bedroom handstanding skills in her skivvies while her lover (hubby? lucky friend?) snoozes on. Is it sexual? Uh, yeah! That’s not even a question.
Oh yes, yes! The semi-popular semi-taboo yoga and sex talk comes swinging around the block once again with its saucy seducing scent of tea tree oil and Sex Panther. This time it’s the ‘Oh’ word: yOgasm. We didn’t make it up. So, is this yogasm for real? Like the “ecstatic birth” trend, are orgasms “yoga’s [...]
Yoga, meet Fame. Yoga Fame, meet your new student Ben Dover! Newsweek has an article entitled “Bow Down To the Yoga Teacher” about prostrating not to the divine, or self, but to the magical all-powerful guru leading the class, on a pedestal, real or metaphorical. These stories of bowing down to a revered, or inspiring, [...]

This is the marketing message of Tara Stiles’ new book Slim, Calm, Sexy, three little words that unlock a whole smorgasbord of emotions, connotations and a motherload of self-consciousness, maybe even worse than camel toe. [...]
Have you heard all the ruckus about sexy naked yoga ads? It’s a fracas of bodily proportions! The debate’s been raging for a week, so if you’re sick and tired of it by now we understand. Who wants to talk about body image, sexuality and yoga? Ptew! What started as a murmur was brought to [...]

We love this HuffPo post. Jason Wachob, of mindbodygreen.com, did a stellar job! Or uh, we mean a hardy, burly, beefy, red-blooded, dude-like job. J-dub, an ex-b-baller, ex-Wall-Streeter, ex-frat-boy (though does that ever wear off?), used to spend hours at the gym lifting heavy things and using mechanical apparati to keep up his muscley physique.
