Yoga is a big part of my exercise routine (the only part I've been able to keep going actually) and I'm hoping to regain a lot of my flexibility through yoga. I'm blogging about it as I go and I'd love to hear your tips and opinions! http://www.theexgymnastbody.wordpress.com. Thanks!

Lindy Gulanes Namaste, fellow yogis!
