Daily Diversion: Heavy-metal yoga

Metal might not be the first genre that comes to mind when you imagine a yoga-class soundtrack, but it’s standard fare for Saskia Thode, HellaWella reports.

Thode has created Metal Yoga Bones, a Brooklyn-based class that accompanies heavy-metal music from bands like Cannibal Corpse, Carcass and Helloween with metal-inspired yoga practice.

“Death metal, grindcore, some fast black metal, and pretty much anything that is heavy and fast, is great to stand up to, to move to, and to be fierce to,” she told HellaWella.
