Yogalebrity Alert in Amagansett
Erika Halweil of Mandala Yoga in Amagansett teaches a popular yoga class that has started shutting people out because they run out of space -- now that it's peak bikini season. (Get there early or suffer mat rage). It's really just the first half of the Ashtanga primary series, but the fashionable ladies of the East End can't get enough. Last weekend, students included Joni of Joni's, of Montauk healthy wrap fame, and yogalebrity Christy Turlington, sweating, but still looking better than anyone else will ever look in their life. Erika adjusted Christy a few extra times, but wouldn't you?

Shayne Worships at Jillian Michaels' Tiny Muscular Feet
Every day, we give you a snapshot of one fellow striver in fitness. We ask personal questions, he or she boldly answers. Today's snapshot: Shayne, aka shaynet.
- What's your number one workout spot? When it's nice out, outside! My favorite thing to do is explore a city by running it. I don't think I'll ever give up my gym membership though, because I also really appreciate a good treadmill run, and I'm into gym culture. I'm moving back to New York in May and need an awesome gym, so send your suggestions my way!
- What's the healthiest thing you eat? I'm vegan, but that definitely doesn't mean everything I eat is healthy. I do start every day off with a huge bowl of oats with almond butter, though, and lately my snacks have been mostly raw nuts and prunes. (I swear I'm not 70.)

Vinyasa Krama, Meditation, and 12 Rounds
Two months ago, I would be that girl who could knock out the group classes challenge in three days. However today, I'm struggling to find indoor group classes that I'm genuinely interested in. It's 70 and sunny everyday. I object to indoor group classes in Los Angeles.

Oh Yoga...How I Missed Thee...
Religiously going to yoga for weeks, I was enamored; but something changed. I forgot how important it is to do something rejuvenating and good for the spirit and traded in yoga for something more "hardcore."
After weeks of yoga withdrawal, I went back to my regular Friday evening class and the entire class my body was saying "thank you."

Revolved Half Moon
I wanted to run BEFORE Yoga. But that did not happen.
