I'd expect most of the people who practice yoga wouldn't like whales being cooped up in an aquarium. It's like hosting a wine tasting for cowboys.

Looks like they're putting whales in the yoga so the yoga-watching whales can watch the whale-watching whales watch whales while they yoga.

I used to be in a barbershop quartet yoga class in Skokie, Illinois. The baritone background was this guy named Kip Diskin, big fat guy, I mean, like, orca fat.

I was hoping it would be yoga classes IN the aquarium. Underwater yoga would be ultimately the complete relaxation. And then whale food.

If I were doing the yoga properly, I wouldn't notice the whales.

If I were doing the yoga improperly, I'd only be noticing the attractive women in the yoga class.

I'm not making a fat joke on "whales". I just really like attractive half-naked limber women. I'm like that. I think I was born this way. I once joined a mime class because there was only one other guy in the class (a friend of mine who joined for the same reason), and there were about twenty attractive women. I did not learn much mime, but it was still a good experience.

What were we talking about? Whales? Yeah, whatever.

This simile didn't make much sense. Do cowboys not like wine bottles to be cooped up as well?

After doing yoga for only a few months now, I have to say the attractive female ratio is very nice...

Be that as it may, why is there invariably someone in the class who has seriously explosive flatulence? I mean, come on now, I can understand letting one slip by when your super relaxed, but we shouldn't be able to measure it on the richter scale!

theorellior: Isn't it hard to hide a boner during the various poses you need to assume?

A true gentleman can hide even the largest erection. Well, his own, anyway. I don't know much about gay gentlemen. Things have changed since the 19th Century. Although, in some ways, they haven't changed at all. Still, we didn't have yoga classes with whale fishtanks back then.

A true gentleman can also seem to not be ogling even while ogling. And, of course, a true gentleman can split infinitives. Even in Latin.

I've never done yoga, myself, but aren't there poses where your insides are, shall we say, under tension?

Careful - this might make the whales think we're worshiping them as gods. That can only lead to trouble.

Fat people don't get a whole lot out of yoga. Its calorie burn ranges from around a quarter to a half of that of the average cardio workout. Obese people aren't going perform well in quite a large variety of poses, and instead of the mentally and physically relaxing workout are likely putting stress on joints and their back all while getting this inferior weight loss.

When I used to do yoga it was the freaking perfume that got to me. A little gas would have improved the place.

mtsofthemoon The twisting poses tend to move things around in the guts, then the supine poses (laying on your back) relaxes you and sometimes farts happen. In the hundreds of classes I've taught its not all that common to have a noisy student. I would worry about the student's diet if it was that common.

Maybe they do, maybe they don't. I'm just assuming it's something that they wouldn't enjoy, so you can take it at that level.

Could those whales put any more frickin ARM into those Cobra poses? That place should be shut down, people are going to get hurt.
