...Patricia Walden took her first yoga class 30 years ago for reasons that were less physical than metaphysical. "My interest was enlightenment," she recalls. "I was reading Aldous Huxley at the time." But she was well grounded in psychology and physiology and devoted herself to the most anatomically precise style of yoga: Iyengar. After 26 years of teaching, Walden has become one of the leading proponents of yoga as a form of holistic therapy. At the Somerville, Mass., B.K.S. Iyengar Yoga Center she co-founded in 1985, she teaches a class for students with "specific needs." She has developed customized...
...fitting clothes--and since you perform barefoot, no fancy footwear. Yet Nike and J.Crew have developed exercise apparel, as has Turlington. For those who prefer stay-at-home yoga, the video-store racks groan with hot, moving tapes. The Living Yoga series of instructional videos taught by Yee and Patricia Walden occupies five of the top eight slots on Amazon's VHS best-seller list.

...Madonna found it first, and I'm following in the footsteps of the stars," groans Minneapolis attorney Patricia Bloodgood. "But I don't think you should reject something just because it's trendy." Bloodgood had the bright idea to commandeer part of the lobby in the office building where she works for a Monday-evening yoga class. Yoginis can spend a weekend at (or devote their lives to) such retreats as Kripalu, where each year 20,000 visitors take part in programs ranging from "The Science of Pranayama and Bandha" to African-drum workshops and singles weekends. In L.A. they...
