as if the modern american "yoga" has anything to do with what Patanjali was talking about.. these idiots are fooling themselves if they think bending your body straight back means you are "spiritual"... asanas are physically beneficial, but so is running a few miles - the real purpose of asana is to engage various bhandas for the prana to circulate in specific ways

if these people were real yogis, a fucking cellphone would not bother them in the slightest... nor would anything else, thats the point of it

space captain is the most chill, most spiritual person on the Internet.

space captain doing yoga makes me think of Tooms from XFiles

She's an employee of Facebook... If they don't want her being "stern" then she shouldn't be. Maybe they thought they were hiring a happy-go-lucky yoga teacher and not a stickler.

Actually she says it herself:

"The culture of these places is to let them do whatever they want," she said. "And I'm just not really OK with anarchy."

Oh well then, looks like you aren't a good fit.

Yeah, Ouya won't do much to disrupt anything. It is a good idea but it needed more beefy hardware behind the idea to really make a difference.

I agree that Ouya is a stupid idea, but it is not really a scam in the sense.

She wasn't an employee of Facebook. She was an employee with Plus One Health Management, a company that contracted with places like Facebook and Cisco.

I don't blame her. It's disruptive to the entire class. Since I take power yoga, most people don't have the energy to do anything else, so it's rare in my class for anyone to be on their phone, but the few times it's happened, they always stand out like someone talking on their phone in the movie theater.

It's okay to leave the world behind for one hour.

In its termination notice, the company suggested the Facebook incident was part of a pattern of strict behavior on Van Ness' part; she had previously asked a Cisco employee not to take photographs of the class while it was in session.

Really? That is a pattern of strict behavior? Asking somebody not to take pictures during a Yago class. As a fellow student, I would be annoyed if some random person was taking pictures of me in an awkward position.


Everything about that comment is just stupid!
