Yesterday, I explained how to rush through the whole Ashtanga primary yoga series in just a couple of short pants (as in breaths, not trousers.)
Below is an illustration of Ashtanga yoga done right, with steadiness, cheefulness, balance, and most importantly, an elephant. (Also practicing are a little white dog and a yogini mouse.)
The pose depicted is trichonasana (triangle pose). The animals are really quite good at it, particularly considering all the extra legs.

Unfortunately, the elephant-dog-mouse yoga book, from which this picture is taken, is not yet finished. But, if you like the style, check out 1 Mississippi, by Karin Gustafson at the link above.
