The Bite:
imageDid Mom's snickerdoodles fuel you through the last part of ’08? Way to go. Now leave the holiday pudge in the dust: Home Simply Yoga's cozy, light-filled studio has new teachers (offering lots of one-on-one instruction) and a new class schedule that includes a 12-step Yoga and Recovery class, donation-based flow classes, and a Beginner's Ashtanga course - HSY's specialty style. Sweat out lingering toxins (ahem, champagne) on its reclaimed dark mahogany wood floors warmed by radiant heat (perfect for those chilly, hello-snooze-button January morns) and breathe easy in a VOC-free space scrubbed with nontoxic cleaners. And while you're there, snag a new PVC-free mat, then recycle your old one. Done.
Wanna Try: 
Home Simply Yoga, 1547 Sixth Street, Garden Ste. #102, Santa Monica. Map It (310-899-1930). Single class, $20.

Cocktail Fact

If you’re taking Aaron Star’s Hot Nude Yoga class (NY, Boston, and LA), leave the g-string at home: Nudity is mandatory.

Small Changes Add Up

If 10,000 LA Biters buy an eco-friendly mat instead of a PVC one, we'll avert the weight of almost 170 yoga instructors in nonrecyclable plastics.
