Good morning and Happy Monday!<\/p>\n

How is your Spring bod doing? Feeling slim and healthy? Ready to hit the beach during Spring Break? Or just feeling sluggish, chubby, and pale as the South Pole snow? Well, it’s time to get your ass in gear and start to drop that winter weight, whether it’s by using that gym membership you’ve been ignoring for 5 months or ridding your fridge of Celeste pizzas.<\/p>\n

One method of weight loss that I don’t know if we can suggest is naked yoga, but that doesn’t mean a studio in New York isn’t offering it! Co-founders\u00a0Joschi Schwarz and Monika Werner created “Bold and Naked” Yoga which is a practice based on the ”\u00a0being in tune with positive feelings about your body.”<\/p>\n

\u201cPart of yoga is to honour and connect with your body. Practicing yoga naked frees you from negative feelings about your body and allows to to be more accepting and deeper connected with yourself and the world around you.\u201d<\/p>\n

The instructors emphasize that being naked is \u201cabout finding the strength to expose your vulnerability and connect to yourself and others on the deepest level\u201d.<\/p>\n

There is no sexual element to the class.<\/p>\n

The guidelines state that \u201csometimes teachers will incorporate partner work into their classes that involves touching and body contact between members. However, this is not to be \u2018sexual touching\u2019 and should any contact of sexual nature occur, it will not be tolerated and will result in the offending member being asked to leave. Anyone who has been asked to leave will not be allowed back to attend classes in the future.\u201d<\/p>\n

Although normal bodily functions are embraced.<\/p>\n

In the FAQ, the issue of erections arises. \u201cIt rarely happens, but when it does it\u2019s okay and nothing to be embarrassed about. It will pass quickly. Erections happen for a lot of reasons and are not limited to sexual attraction. Yoga moves a lot of energy throughout the body and sometimes erections happen. But once we start moving, there is no way an erection could be sustained, because of the physical nature of Vinyasa Yoga.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

As a yoga fan, the idea of truly “connecting with your body” seems like a great goal. However, being a foot away from a dude’s naked taint in downward facing dog doesn’t just scream “relaxation and connection on the deepest level.” It screams “GET ME OUT OF HERE SWEET JESUS THIS IS A NIGHTMARE.”<\/p>\n

What do you think? Would you do naked yoga? Let us know in the comments!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n\n
