The city is alive and breathing with yoga right now. Here's a smattering of yoga stuff happening around town:

1) Tomorrow night, June 20, the new documentary, "Living Yoga: The Life and Teachings of Swami Satchidananda" will be premiering at Jivamukti. Before the movie, Krishna Das will do a 30-minute kirtan (chanting and jamming). After the film there will be a panel discussion with the two filmmakers, Sharon Gannon, David Life and Integral yoga's Swami Ramananda. The event will benefit the o-kill shelter Integral Yoga or Jivamukti

2) Times Square Yoga on the Solstice
In its second year, this metaphor-made-literal day of FREE yoga classes literally in the middle of Times Square is completely perspective-altering and amazing. And this year, yours truly (me) will be speaking in little 10-minute talks/guided meditations.

Time: Classes throughout Saturday. Check www.timessquarenyc.org for times.
Place: In Times Square, at the intersection of Broadway and 7th Avenue between 43rd and 44th Streets
Cost: Free
To sign up: www.timessquarenyc.org

3) Pure Yoga Opening
The much ballyhooed Pure Yoga--what will be the city's largest studio--will be opening on June 25th. New York magazine has a great page of some of the instructors in their fave postures here (see image at right).

4) Krishna Das Concert. If a little 30-minute warm-up at the Living Yoga event isn't enough, you can see a full-length Krishna Das kirtan to shake your hare ramas at St. Paul's Church on Saturday. Go toKrishnaDas.com for info.

And there's more, but will save some for next week. Know of any cool yoga happenings? Let me know or comment below.
