Hot Yoga<\/p><\/div>\n

Hot Yoga<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>is one third of life size and features a female performing the yoga posture known to yoga practitioners as a variant of the \u201cpigeon pose\u201d.\u00a0 You can\u2019t miss \u00a0the arc that flows as a dominant line through the piece.\u00a0 Yoga postures often create visual interest and serve to provoke the awe-inspired question of \u201chow can she do that<\/em>?\u201d\u00a0 But yoga isn\u2019t just about poses\u2014one of the challenges of sculpting such subject matter is to convey the sense of well-being that the yogi enters into during her practice.<\/p>\n
