Yoga Yoga Yoga Styles Beginners Poses & Workouts From Ann Pizer, your Guide to Yoga You take a summer vacation to get away from it all, so I find it telling that yoga is *not* one of the things you are trying to get away from. Quite the opposite, in fact. Many yoga students I talk to hope to do even more yoga than usual when their schedules open up. Here are some ways to up your yoga consumption on your holiday. How to Take Yoga on Vacation With a little forethought, you can find local yoga studios at your destination or plan to do a "home" practice on the road. Airplane Yoga Spreading yoga through the friendly skies makes airplane travel a little more bearable. Pack Apps The advent of yoga apps and audio downloads make it a lot easier to plan a yoga session on the go. All you need is your iphone or ipod with a few good apps or favorite audio classes. Pose of the Week - Compass Pose - Parivrtta Surya Yantrasana If there's any "trick" to compass pose beyond having super open hamstrings, it's to get your leg as high up over your shoulder as possible when setting up for the pose. If there's a "tip," it is: don't force your lifted leg to straighten. There is no benefit to be gained by muscling your way into this (or any) pose. If your body is not ready for this one, just enjoy the view for now.
