Los Angeles: Blogging in L.A.

How psyched were we after learning that Yoga Journal was nominated for a People’s Voice Webby Award for Best Magazine Website? What's so cool about these awards is that you, the online community, chooses the winner. At the risk of shameless self-promotion (and I'm taking the risk), please vote for us.

With that plug out of the way, I thought this would also be a good opportunity to link to my yogi comrades blogging in L.A. Here's my short list so if I've missed anyone, please let me know, pronto.

The Kareem Abdul-Jabbar blog at the Los Angeles Times is authored by the legendary hoops star, who also happens to be a long-time yogi. And believe me, he knows a lot more than just basketball evidenced by his learned musings about politics, African-American history and fitness.

For the girl about town, yoga socialite POV, visit Joni at Accidental Yogist. She seems to be everywhere at once and is happy to share details about her personal life as well as her yogic discoveries. The blog is also a great resource for calendar listings.

Namasteph is Stephanie and this yoga teacher in training posts about everything from Yoga Journal cover models to Christian Yoga. She's someone with strong opinions and as far as I'm concerned, that's a good thing.

Eugene's Digital Asana Project on his Om Shanti blog are sights to behold. Basically the guy is an outstanding acrobatic yogi. Check out the mind-blowing clips as he performs yogic feats like Urdhva Padma Mayurasana.

Last, but not least, Mahamondo has a real knack for discovering original and entertaining music and asana clips. LIke these street yogis:
