Im on a mission to give yoga a image makeover.. Sure in LA guys doing yoga gets a free ride but try having a discussion with middle america or even worse your family back in "philly" about how you've mastered downward facing dog. There's a 98% chance the response would include the word "vagina." Yoga it seems has the masculine equivalent of quilting to much of America and thats a problem.. Why is it a problem? well for me its kinda changed my life.. not on some type of grand scale like my wife or child have but in a "finding peace" way.. Unfortunately thats where you lose people.. Finding peace sounds like a huge pain in the ass to a lot of people and its damn sure uncomfortable to talk about over a beer.. You'd be much better off talking about how much you can bench. Ive been there too. Ive spent a decent amount of my life downing protein shakes, in fact I was in the 1500 lb club in high school which is astonishing considering I was either high or drunk EVERY SINGLE SECOND of my life back then... I had zero interest in peace in those days.. Back to the point, yoga needs a new PR guy and I'm up for the job... Until I get the call I'll just be happy that i live in LA where I can ride my "mountain" bike to class...
