Aquaman: "Good morning, everyone, namaste! I'm Aquaman and I'll be teaching class this morning, we'll be learning Virabhadrasana, the Warrior pose. Would you please come to standing, Mr. Ninja?" Storm Shadow: "Sir, my name is Storm Shadow, sir!" Aquaman: "I see. I also see that standing may be a challenge for you. How'd you lose your foot, soldier?" Storm Shadow: "A bulldog puppy chewed it

I meant to post this brilliant and inspiring image months ago, it's a handmade birthday card I received from the perilously inevitable Antonia, and if you find the caption at all mysterious, a certain amount of enlightenment may be obtained here. The other thing is, I went on a yoga retreat this weekend, and at one point we were all sitting around a swimming hole drawing cards from the Voyager

Karai: "Good morning. I'm Karai, and I'll be teaching your class. I am the highest-ranking member of the Foot Clan, archrivals of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Also, these are my weapons and that's my extra head." Naruto: "Awesome! I'm Naruto Uzumaki.

Spiderman: "I thought we'd have class outside today on this rustic wood plank. Any objections?" Mr. Freeze: "As soon as I can think of a diabolical response to that question, I will impart it to you, web-slinging do-gooder." Flash: "Dude, is this floor made out of an old fence or something?" Woody: "Don't fence me in! Ha, ha!" Green Lantern: "Oh my god, I think I'm in the wrong class."

Hello Kitty Yoga Bag. I'm speechless. Speechless at how cute this is! I'm totally going to stop binding my mat with a bungee cord now that branded yoga accessories are finally here. Also, I'm a wee bit jealous that I didn't thiink of it first. I'm totally going to make a bootleg Hulk mat bag now. [via Ashtanga News: Ashtanga Role Models for the Future: Live from Tokyo]

We're taking a short break from the hilarity that accompanies learning yoga from plastic action figures to show you a bag from not-our sponsor, McDonald's: (We are not going to tell you how we came into possession of this bag except to warn you that you may be disappointed in our not-completely-vegetarian lifestyle. But you must understand that the dietary needs of plastic superheros are

Frozone: "Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana?! What the hell does that mean? Pokey: "Utthita means 'extended,' hasta means 'hand,' padangustha is 'big toe,' and asana is 'pose' or 'posture.'" Frozone: "Goddamnit, you're a horse! How do you know that!" Pokey: "I had spent many years working in public television when Gumby introduced me to Lilias Folan. She changed my life." Frozone: "Oh.

Barbie: "Hi! I'm Cheerleader Barbie! I'm taking my first yoga class today. I'm a little nervous about it. I talk a lot when I'm nervous! Did you know that some people think that yoga clears your mind, but if your mind is clear, that means Jesus is gone, too, and Satan can slip in and take over your soul?" Spiderman: "Well, uh, I've never seen it happen, but I guess that doesn't mean it hasn't.

After a little unexpected time off for summer flu, everyone here at yogabeans! is very excited to be breathing through our noses again and ready to welcome the Fantastic Four to the shala for a little Prasarita Padottanasana, superhero style. Elastigirl: "From left to right, we have the Thing." Thing: "Howsit goin', Elastigirl." Elastigirl: "Great, how are you feeling this morning, Thing?"

Elastigirl: "Well, it looks like Duke managed to haul all the G.I. Joe Sigma 6 operatives out of their weapons cases and into the shala today. Good work, Duke!" Duke: "Thanks, Elastigirl." From left to right: Storm Shadow, Kamakura, Snake Eyes, Heavy Duty, Duke, and Spirit Iron-Knife. Elastigirl: "I also see you changed into your skintight underwater ops uniform."

Well! Classes are getting more popular here at yogabeans! Word must be spreading. I guess if you jam a bunch of superheroes into the same toy drawer every night they will talk. Today's guest teacher is Bendy Marge Simpson. Marge is one of our most advanced teachers. Her yogic knowledge is so deep that her daily practice consists of mixing cake batter in a Tupperware bowl while doing advanced

Today we are pleased to have a small class come together to demonstrate these two companion poses, padangusthasana and padahasthasana. From left to right we have: our guest teacher, Rodney Copperbottom; the mysterious mutant, Nightcrawler; and the monstrously bulked-up but still super-hot superhero, Batman, who appears to have come to class today straight from the Bat Boat. We know how hard it

Today's model is GI Joe 8 Inch Commando Duke. Duke is an ass-kicking G.I. Joe of recent vintage, belonging to the Sigma 6 series of covert operatives along with his frighteningly detailed buddies Storm Shadow, Heavy Duty, Snake Eyes, Spirit Iron Knife, and Tunnel Rat. Duke is the only one with the balls to do yoga, though, and we are pleased to have him demonstrate this sun salutation series for

Today's model is Sir Rascus of the Lego Knights' Kingdom. Rascus is associated with the monkey and all that is rascally. He stands out among his fellow knights for being a daring acrobat, and we are pleased to have him demonstrating this sun salutation sequence for us. Samasthiti! Rascus has his visor up, all four corners of his big, flat feet grounded into the floor, and he seems pretty
