Everyone's doing it: celebrities, business moguls, even your co-workers. It's sprouting up in gyms, offices, airports, and shopping malls. We speak, of course, of "yoga."
"Yoga positions" (+284%) and "yoga classes" (+23%) are stretching upward. Searchers are also seeking enlightenment on "free yoga exercises online," "yoga teachers," "yoga journal," and the answer to the inevitable question: "what is yoga."
Yoga equipment and accessories are a huge industry, with people looking for mats, clothing, DVDs, music, and jewelry. Somehow, we have a feeling that folks dialing up "nude yoga" and "naked yoga" are more interested in watching it than participating. But hey, what do we know?
Who's looking for yoga? A healthy 24% of searchers come from the 35-44 age range. Coastal states New Jersey, New York, Florida, and California are most interested in checking out online yoga offerings. And what kind is everyone looking for? Meditate on the top 10 searched-on yoga styles…

I think that this article makes a really good point but it does not provide a good yoga resource. For those of you out there interested in yoga, I suggest picking up a few yoga magazines and signing up for a local class, but also check out this website:

I has MS and since I have been doing yoga, my body feels great along with my mind and soul. I will be turning 60 next month and I wish I would have gotten into it years ago.
Way to go Yahoo. Awareness is needed in all states....
Namaste'

Hey! I'm Natalia. I teach SwáSthya, the ancient Yôga.Is a very strong method, full of strenght and energy. I live Yôga. For me, is really a lifestyle. My body feels wonderful and my emotions too.
Here in Argentina often the young people are looking for Yôga as a phylosophy.
Check out www.yogabuenosaires.com if you want to know more about SwáSthya.
