From my blog:
While it takes years to achieve many of the poses in Power Yoga, you can learn everything you need to know about Power Trip Yoga in five minutes:
- Always sigh rather than say the word "yoga," and pronounce it in an overly emphatic way. "Yog-ahhhh." This indicates reverence, and possibly that you know Sanskrit and are using the original pronunciation.
- Use the word "practice" a lot, as in "My practice is evolving every day."
- While waiting for the teacher to arrive, do not pick at your toes, but instead adopt full lotus in the exact middle of your mat.

- Throughout the class, keep your “dragon breath” as loud as possible, and maintain a beatific smile. (read on)
