As I write this blog, I’m watching the Oscar Awards red carpet… There are glamorous movie stars in fabulous sparkly dresses and neat tuxes, many of whom are living out their dreams before our eyes. It’s the stuff that dreams are made of.
I can make a yoga metaphor out of anything, but this one is almost too easy–all the hard work, the failed auditions, beaming confidence, and all the many people it takes to create the actors (not to mention the films themselves!). Choose your own metaphor…. Tonight, I’m more interested in the glitz and glamor.
Yoga students are glamorous in our own right. There are a few poses that make me feel kind of like an Oscar nominee, myself. Here are my choices for most glamorous yoga poses. What are yours?

Teeg, I agree! But I kind of have a thing for backbends… as you can see from this post! 🙂

I'm there with one-legged king pigeon too, but I feel it's inversions such as headstand that make me feel glamorous, especially headstand with a twist (Parsva sirsasana).

I'm digging the dancer pose (I'm a ballerina at heart) and the sand and sunset in the background wins for best art direction and cinematography!

Trikonasana for sure, it makes me feel like the radiating sun!

Camel is so elegant, and Half-moon is great, too. Pigeon is stunning and regal….
