From Ann Pizer, your Guide to Yoga
There's a tendency to think that because yoga is old, it's unchanging. But this couldn't be more wrong. Even things like vinyasa-flow are pretty new in yoga's history, but that trend is now solidly part of the canon. Let's take a look at what's trending now...

Yoga Trends
Yoga styles that take us off the mat, like AcroYoga, SUP yoga, and AntiGravity Yoga are the trend of the moment. Yoga gatherings, like festivals and conferences are also increasingly popular. Read more about all of the above here.

AcroYoga High
AcroYoga came into being shortly after co-founders Jason Nemer and Jenny Sauer-Klein met in 2003. But cinematic evidence (available on YouTube) exists showing yoga guru T. Krishnamacharya demonstrating a similar style with young students, such as this clip, dated 1938. Nemer and Sauer-Klein's style, which has caught on internationally and become a reliable feature at yoga festivals, offers high-flying acrobatics, but also has therapeutic applications.

Trend and Tell
I tried out the hottest yoga trends so you don't have to. Oh, you still want to? Well, tell us about it here.

Pose of the Week - Knee to Ankle
A pose called by many names (knee to ankle, firelog, and double pigeon), all of them apt, agnistambhasana gets right into your hips. If your top knee seems miles from your bottom ankle, a folded blanket makes a nice prop. This allows you to relax the knee and, hopefully, that relaxation will result in a deepening in the hips.
