I will say this about Patrica Walden. If you buy Yoga for beginners, she has a serious case of camel toe in her all in one white leotard. My male flatmate has watched it a lot to make sure.

Quote: catskillz @ July 10 2008, 10:35 AM BSTMy sister used to do it, and it seemed to do her the world of good. It's just not my type of thing. If I was going to get back into the whole exercise thing, I'd probably jsut play 5-a-side footbal.
Very hot flexible lasses do it, 'nuff said. Ashtanga is the one to do - if you're still alive at the end of an hour of it, you feel a real sense of acheivement.

Did you know that if you sneeze with your eyes open they pop out? COUGHGULLIBLECOUGH.

I hope for everyone's sake that she's quite young. I mean - imagine Charley like that! 
Quote: Simon Stratton @ July 10 2008, 9:02 AM BSTAnyone else do Ashtanga yoga? It's mental, like an extreme sport. Love it.
Yoga is for girlies. You are a girlie.
It was invented by blokes - buddist monks - and stolen by the lasses. But as long as they wear skin tight lycra while doing it I'm not really complaining.
To be honest, I don't think I'd ever do the tinkly music, incense and meditation versions, which kinda give it a bad name.
Tinkly music and meditation is funky.

Beginners (especially women) always start off with that. They take it very seriously. They buy straps, cushions, blocks, candles, incense, etc, all brand new. Then change their diets to meet these so called needs of the body and live off chickpeas. Then one day, they let off a massive fart during dog pose and the serious edge is removed.
I think you do yoga for one of two reasons:
a) The spiritual side
b) It's a great way to make every muscle in your bod fit, flexible and vastly improves your ability to play other physical sports.
I'm very much in the b camp, but there's nowt wrong with the 'a' one (hmmm *looks up on internet* you have to cut garlic, onions and spices out of your diet! I love garlic, onions and spices (otherwise known as curry - wasn't yoga invented in asia?))
Just seen this addendum from the American Yogic Association teachers guide:
"Sexual involvement with students is absolutely prohibited"
Only in America would they think it necessary to make this a rule to stop people doing it. "Oh, I'm not supposed to be having sex with my students while teaching them yoga! That's where I'm going wrong!" *makes a note* don't fondle the students
I tried yoga for a bit.
It was fun! And the warm down is awwwwesome.
But, it's a bit of a faff.
I was only doing it for the fitness and stretchiness reasons, and I'd rather go for a bike ride or something
