As you might know, I’m really into yoga.

I’ve been doing it for over two decades and even taught it briefly.

I’m not into the spiritual side of yoga, but, to me, it’s the ultimate mind/body exercise.

While I love traditional yoga, specifically power yoga (which purists wouldn’t call “traditional”), I like to try new forms.

For the past 90 days, I’ve been doing DDP Yoga.

Wrestling fans will recognize DDP as WWE Hall Of Famer, Diamond Dallas Page. I’ve had the pleasure of speaking on the stage with DDP twice.

DDP, who appeared on Shark Tank, created his own type of yoga that incorporates isometrics (dynamic resistance), punches, body weight exercises, rehabilitation movements, and, of course, yoga.

His tagline is “This ain’t your mama’s yoga.”

Picture a wrestler teaching you yoga, and you’ve got it!

He’s renamed yoga poses to make them his own. For example, “child’s pose” is “safety zone,” “happy baby” is “dead bug,” and “warrior pose” is “road warrior.”

He turned yoga, what might be perceived as a commodity, into his own thing. By doing so he’s made it his own thing and attracts a target market who would never consider doing yoga.

Lots of lessons here, my fine feathered friend.

Kick butt, make mucho DEEnero!
