September is Here! Ack!

Summer is my season. When the weather turned over the weekend, and the sting of September was in the air, I admit I felt heartsick. My season was so short, and so weird this year. I didn't quite get enough. Never even made it to the beach!But, September is here and yoga nation is back. My impromptu dog-days hiatus from blogging is over (you can even need a vacation from blogging and from Twitter), and I'm ready for a fall season of yoga news, yoga quirks, and yoga love. Watch for my upcoming piece on YogaCityNYC about celebrity yogis! Up next week. In this space, I'll have news from the American Viniyoga Institute (where I'll be over Labor Day), plus a video of John Friend trying slackline yoga, an interview with the makers of the next yoga film---and more, folks, and more, and coming your way....Namaste!

Yoga Slackers

Yoga slacklining--doing poses on a tight-rope (or, rather, a loose rope)-- must have come from California--where else would anyone have time or inclination to do yoga poses on a loose line--and also invent a whole system for how to do them?

Watch the associated video--cute. They show that it's not about perfection as the guy in the background loses it.
