Yes Virginia, there is yoga beyond the gym and the yoga studio! Where there's Internet, there are ways to practice yoga. I'm continually amazed at the proliferation of yoga sites that offer free yoga videos, yoga communities, and all kinds of yoga-related information.
If you're in need of a free yoga injection, look no further than your computer. Here's the latest resources for you to check out:
If you've ever been curious about AcroYoga, check out this introduction to the practice. I've seen it practiced in Central Park in NYC and a friend of mine has been having fun with this playful practice as well. Think of it as playground time for yogis!
If sleep eludes you, try this 8-minute yoga practice for better sleep. Personally, I love doing a little yoga before bed. It's a nice relaxation ritual and I tend to sleep like a baby.
If low back pain has you grimacing, you can find a little low back RX here.
There's a lot of content on YouTube and not all of it good. Yoga Online is one of the good ones. Choose from full routines (broken down into segments) for beginners, seniors, as well as a very interesting routine entitled Yoga and the Art of Aging. You can subscribe to the Yoga Online channel on YouTube and/or follow them on Twitter.
If you want to go beyond yoga practices to connecting with other yogis and discovering yoga resources of all types, I suggest joining MyYogaClub.com. Join in on the forum discussions, promote your services, or interact with like-minded yogis.
All this at the tips of your fingers. Pretty cool, eh? Enjoy!
I own an online yoga studio with over 50 workouts that stream right through members' laptops or iPhones. I'd love to have you review http://fit2b.us sometime!

Namaste!
