Star Wars Yoga in WIRED UK

Star Wars Yoga was featured in the most recent issue of WIRED UK, available in fine stores all over the UK.

For all those not in the GREAT BRITAIN

The text reads:

Contemplating the names of yoga poses led Matthew Latkiewicz, a lifelong Star Wars nerd, to create his own Lucasfilm-themed postures. He posted pics of himself performing some of them, including the TIE Fighter, and the Half I Am Your Father, to his blog, framed as missives to Lucas from the marketing dept. "I loved the idea of someone pitching him branded yoga," he says. "There's mysticism to the films -- a lot of Jedi/yogi overlap -- so it sounds plausible. Which makes it even funnier." His yoga is based on the original trilogy but Latkiewicz says he might create some prequel-inspired poses. "I'd call one 'The Disappointed Fanboy'."

The WIRED art department created these aboslutely hilarious illustrations of Luke, Leia, and Han doing some of the poses:

I have more poses in the bag - should post them this weekend.
