Photographing Your Yoga Practice
Instagram yoga celebrity (yes, that’s a real thing) Laura Kasperzak, or her handle @laurasykora says in a recent well+good interview that there’s far more than internet fame to be gained by photographing her yoga practice. Like, the adorable-ness of her mother daughter yoga photos, but more importantly to check alignment and track progress.
I’m an incredibly sweaty mess during my yoga practice, but the pictures of Laura Sykora look so gorgeous I might have to reconsider my position. It would have to be non-hot yoga for sure, though, and maybe if I straightened my hair first. Plus, my favourite local yoga studio, Power Yoga Canada, has a pose of the month challenge, where their favourite photo wins a 5-class pass, so I guess I’ll have to download the TimerCam app and get click happy. Maybe I’ll end up joining one of the many Instagram yoga challenges going around too, #ACROVINYASA looks amazing, or I could try out Laura Sykora’s own challenge, #BalanceBasics.
MAYBE I’ll end up being a yoga Instagram celebrity myself! (Probably not, although I can imagine a video of me wiping out multiple times in crow pose might go viral)
