"IN THE SHADOW OF THE HORNS": CANDLE LIT YOGA

Happy 2014 and #polarvortex! For many of you, it’s happy #seasonaldepression.   I’ve been noticing a lot of cranky and cagey people. It’s been too cold here for too long!   During frigid times like these, there’s a real tendency to stay holed-up in your house. That’s totally ok sometimes, but when the cold just lasts and lasts, then something needs to change.   Before I practiced yoga, I would get tight shoulders and hips, a stiff neck, and low-back pain during such times. I know a lot of people experience similar symptoms.   That’s why I put together a special event: a candlelit yoga and metal night called “In The Shadow Of The Horns” an event titled after one of my favorite tracks on Darkthrone’s “A Blaze In The Northern Sky.” Since Darkthrone are Scandinavian so they obviously know about seasonal depression.    Yes: Candlelit Yoga set to meditative kvlt metal music!   This class will be suitable to people of all levels, even people who have never done yoga (or experienced #trukvltmetal).   It’s on Friday, January 31st at 8:00pm-9:30pm at Turbodog Yoga (327 N. Bell Ave.). There is free parking. This class is free to Turbodog members and it’s the normal class fee for non-members. If you’ve never been to Turbodog then I suggest getting the New Student Offer, which is $20 for 10 days of yoga.   Hope to see you soon and please hit me up if you have any questions.   #kvltmetalyoga   Recent Listening Marissa Nadler “July” (Sacred Bones) Ars Phoenix “Violent Rain” (Etxerecords) Culted “Oblique To All Paths” (Relapse Records) Thee Silver Mt.
