Cool interview with a cool lady.

Just read an interview of Sage Roundtree.  I’d not heard of her before, but she’s seems pretty cool and apparently wrote this book.

Had some good advice about stretching while training, etc.

I have a Yoga for Athletes dvd, and I’ve been using it a lot more lately.  It’s like a ‘choose-your-own-yoga-adventure’.  Does anyone else have this dvd?  If so, how do you like it?  And if anyone wants to borrow mine, just let me know.
