I'm cultivating an at-home yoga practice, with emphasis on vinyasa. I like a more active practice with a few complex (for me) poses thrown in. For example, I like to do lots of sun salutations, but then build toward a "party pose" like camatkarasana ("Wild Thing") or natarajasana ("Lord of the Dance") - haven't tried the latter yet, but it's on tap soon.

But even with vinyasa yoga, I still gotta get my cardio in. So I did 35 minutes of yoga at home, then went to the office gym for 32 minutes on the elliptical.
