That sounds really fun! I'm a vinyasa teacher, but would love to add the other elements in :)

I'd recommend getting a good mat. The difference is quite amazing! I enjoy the natural rubber mats by Jade and Manduka.

I have a Jade mat and a Manduka Eko-mat. I really like them both, and Jade is close to my heart, but the Manduka is 5mm and a little thicker... I'm thinking it's a bit better on the joints. However, both are very sticky and all-around awesome!

Or maybe just the ones choosing to be assholes in internet comments. The vegans I know are awesome people without major anger issues. I'm vegan, have recovered from an ED, and would feel very hurt if someone threatened me during recovery just for trying to get healthy. I think we can agree that that is a shitty thing…

Haha, I'll never forget that! :)

My thoughts are extreme people are extreme and people with ED have ED. Veganism can be a vehicle for both but does not cause either. I'm a vegan who did follow her and respect her choice, even though I sometimes instagram my kale :)

I love that you know this about yourself. Hypermobility, without the strength and mindfulness to back it up, can be a big liability in yoga. I think the peer/teacher pressure + heat of Bikram can really send that over the edge.

Word! His ego is out of control!

Haha.. I also distrust it because it doesn't include downward facing dog. The horror!

I agree. I'm a yoga teacher and believe that while yoga can make you strong, more flexible, and balanced, most of the weight loss stems from students becoming more mindful of what they put in their bodies. It's an indirect result of the yoga practice.

Swooooon!

I'm dying laughing at your description, yet somehow I still think he's super fine!

Must be nice!

Haha, no, but consenting adults can decide to mouth kiss whenever they want.

O-Positive here. Mosquito Magnet. Huge welts. Do. Not. Like.

I can see that. Acroyoga can be a good way to build intimacy with your partner, and I know not everyone is comfortable with PDA. I'm a yoga teacher and am married to a man 20 years my senior, so I often have a lot of empathy toward the Baldwins when people judge them for those particular attributes. Not saying you…

They are consenting adults.

It's Acro Yoga, not sex.

It was at the Tivoli oh so very briefly :(
