The thing I love about Ashtanga yoga classes is that they are the same every time you go. Same poses, same order, same amount of breaths in each pose, and the class is always an hour and a half. There are no surprises, so you always know what to expect.

If you're checking out classes at an Ashtanga yoga studio, you may come across a class called Mysore.
In a Mysore style yoga class, you lead yourself, following your own breath and a series of memorized poses, either First Series or Second Series. If you are an advanced practitioner, you may even do Third Series.

You know how much I love David Swenson's Ashtanga Yoga First Series DVD, but I love his Second and Third Series DVD even more.
Many Ashtanga yoga teachers have made First Series videos, but it's tough to find a video that explains Second Series.
David Swenson takes you through this ancient and challenging series of yoga poses.

In Ashtanga Yoga, there are a total of seven headstands in Second Series. Some are more challenging than others, but with a little practice, you can master them all. At first, try doing all seven separately, and when you feel stable enough, try moving through all seven without letting your feet touch the ground.

Taylor Lautner took a break from all those smart suits he's been wearing for premieres and TV appearances and benefit screenings, and wore a casual stripy top and jeans for dinner at BLT in New York City last night. I was lucky enough to meet Taylor when he was in London last week for the New Moon press conference and UK fan event and he revealed all about stunts, hobbies and taking on a female role! Check out all of the gossip from Taylor, Robert and Kristen in my series of interviews and read on to find out more from Jacob Black himself.

The New Moon countdown has begun! The second film in the Twilight series comes stateside Friday and the LA premiere sizzled tonight. Kristen opted for a princess-like beaded Oscar de la Renta that complements her sweet side.

Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, and Taylor Lautner may be dominating the promotional circuit right now, but they're not the only cast members with something to say about New Moon. I had the opportunity to chat with costars Kellan Lutz and Ashley Greene, aka Emmett and Alice Cullen, during their recent stopover in SF. They chatted about their characters, the vampire craze, and what it's like to be a "Twilight celebrity."
