actually it takes courage to ask this out

loud.<br>Preamble.... is that i heard so much recently of g devereux

here plus it is a moviestar name so memorable....so

invariably it was with an "aha" that i picked up a yogabook

in the local barnesand noble recently that had his

name on the cover, curious to find out more about the

man everyone so admires.<br><br>good book good

pictures yeah yeah yeah which brings me to my question of

why... would he wear shorts in these pictures that if

one would wear short on a gay porno website this is

what they'd look like.?.<br><br>In tadasana from the

sideview EVERYything hangs out the back.... which makes it

scary to take in the front. It kind of flaps open in

the front in other seated poses but thank god - only

darkness.<br><br>What is with that and why would a great man

.....<br><br>This is the kind of shorts that a girl model would

wear in teen magazine that glamorize and sexualize

young girl/women. If our male teacher would ever walk

into class like that we'd all shriek and keel over

with laughter.... i hope....

As a major fan of Godfrey's I feel like maybe I

should reply. <br><br>First of all, I'm not sure what

you mean by "it takes courage to ask this", but

personally, I would hesitate to criticize anyone "out loud"

for what they choose to wear. I might wonder how that

would relate to the first limbs of the eight-limbed

Ashtanga path.<br><br>A friend of mine who is more into

the world of athletics informs me that those are

known as "full-split" runners shorts. They are a

standard item which can be bought at sporting goods

stores. I would assume that the design has to do with

allowing unrestricted movement. I would also assume that

some type of undergarment is normally worn

underneath.<br><br>If we chose to, I'm sure we could be endlessly

amused by checking out the attire of the students and

teachers in any yoga class, even in Mysore. What do you

wear? Care to post a picture? I have occasionally shown

various yoga videos to non-yogi friends and have noted

that they usually get a chuckle out the outfits. Not

being the fashion king, this was an issue that made me

hesitate to attend my first class. I always just wore a

swimsuit and found it to be appropriate. I usually think

that laughing at or criticizing people for what they

wear (or other aspects of their appearance) is not

such a nice thing. <br><br>I wonder if you chose to

read any part of this book and if you found it as

humorous?<br><br>Dynamic Yoga is one of the more important books that a

serious student of Ashtanga yoga could acquire. 15-Minute

Yoga, despite the title, is full of wisdom. Hatha Yoga,

Breath by Breath also excellent. Elements of Yoga is one

of the best general overviews of the vast subject of

yoga.<br><br>Anyway, hopefully you meant no offense and will take none

at my reply.

"A friend of mine who is more into the world of

athletics informs me that<br> those are known as

"full-split" runners shorts."<br><br>Is it customary for

runners to wear shorts that shows the creases of the

buttocks from behind? If so I can see how runners can get

away with that - running has two basic poses- right

arm left foot forward, ok now switch. And then they

turn the corner and are gone.<br><br> Maybe it only

happened because he reached up with both hands- and when

he saw his derriere when he proofed the book, it was

awww...the photographer is already gone and ...i AM in

shape.<br><br> I don't think my comments came from a fashion

faux-pax point of view but if you must know i for very

long stuck to the black legging black top classical

safety - it really didn't take much to figure a simple

yoga outfit like that.<br><br>As for the bathing suit

- no comment.

<I might wonder how that would relate to the

spmeone to explain it to you or are you trying to tell

tshamoya that you don't think she is being 'yoga like'?

You might wonder because you obviously already know.

Drop the passive aggressive yoga crap and be straight.

I know you usually are.<br><br>FBL

Devereux has had training in the Iyengar method

as well as Ashtanga. In Iyengar yoga they like the

teachers to have very short pants on so that the students

can see what they are doing with their leg muscles.

If you take a look at some pictures of Iyengar you

will notice that he also likes this style of dress

too.<br>I think that this is your answer.

thanx.(Yes, I know the iyengar shorts and they

are very practical.) It may be an explanation for the

shorts in question - i am assuming you know what these

particular ones look like (more revealing than the iyengar

shorts -in fact probably yoga inappropriate unless

you're daring). FEW girls would dare wear these around

sri KPJ unless you want your tonsils adjusted.
