Walk into a yoga class where I live and you will see something missing- MEN. Yes, in big cities like New York, San Francisco, LA and Chicago, you may see men in yoga class. But I live in suburban Pittsburgh. You are lucky to find a yoga class, let alone a class that has participants of the male persuasion. I am not sure if it is a Western PA stigma, a remnant of male testosterone fueled ego, that prevents men from taking yoga. They will whine and complain about their injuries to their backs and knees, yet they try to get back to their "lifting" and "running" so they can get back to playing "football" with their aging, ailing friends.

Come on guys! Open your minds just a bit and try yoga. It will heal what ails you, and give you a good workout! Just think what it can do for your love life...
