Yoga with Blythe

Last spring, I shot this video as a fun side project with help from my friends Blythe and Staci. Along with shooting all the footage, I designed all of the audio (except of course the music). I turned it in for my Fundamentals of Audio final and received an "A".

My Yogi Friend

     My friend, Blythe, is what you would call a "yogi". She teaches Vinyasa, or Flow Yoga. This type of yoga focuses on the synchronization of breathing and movement. This synchronization is often called "flow" because it is very smooth and dance-like. Also, she works for a company that sells yoga clothing. I admire her because she has taken her hobby and turned it into her career, something I hope to one day accomplish. I have been helping her to establish and market her yoga business. I designed this logo. We intend to print it on business cards, flyers, posters, t-shirts, and potentially other forms of advertising.

     Yesterday, Blythe and I headed to Roxborough State Park early in the morning. The weather was unseasonably warm and sunny. It was wonderful.We couldn't resist sitting in a field for awhile just to bask in the sun. Other than basking, we did a little hiking, and I took several pictures of her doing many of her favorite asanas, or poses. She is submitting her favorite into a Yoga-Photo Contest. Also, we will be using some of the photos for marketing purposes, as well.

Yoga in the City

A few weeks ago, I went to City Park bright and early with my yogi friend, Blythe, and a few others. In Washington D.C., they had a group yoga event which exceeded 1000 people. The goal of Yoga in the City organizers was to get 2000 people. While, I don't think they reached their goal, they still did a great job. It lasted for 2 hours and was pretty technical. I struggled to keep up with the experts, but that's the beauty of yoga, it's all just practice.
