Everybody knows my religion, right? Another day, another workout….that’s weekends too!
So if you’re anywhere near DTLA this Saturday or Sunday, come take a Tola Yoga Fundamentals class (great for beginners) at 8:30am, or the more challenging Tola Yoga Prime class at 10am.
And if you’re looking for something to do afterward, expand your ink culture horizons with Tattoo: An Exhibition at the Natural History Museum (a few miles south near USC). Peace – R
Time to fulfill the first part of our theme from last class, Launch & Let Go, by offering Tola Yoga classes in Downtown Los Angeles (that’s DTLA of course!).
Yoga Fundamentals is perfect for beginners or any level student looking to advance their practice by learning principle yoga poses.
Yoga Prime is perfect for intermediate to advanced students – plus courageous beginners – desiring a challenging yoga workout. Note: you will break a sweat.
Come take a class this Saturday or Sunday, or treat yourself to both classes if you really want to transform your practice.
Reserve in advance with PayPal or Venmo: [email protected]

In our Tola Yoga finale of 2017, we could have been laser-focused on sending out boatloads of Love & Light. But I wanted to praise the mighty powers of two other L words that can really change your life. Launch & Let Go.
As we began our challenging yoga workout, I told my amazing students to focus their energies on launching, i.e., beginning, three new things in the first three months of 2018. It doesn’t matter what they are, as long as they serve you well. Like a daily fitness program or a volunteer opportunity. Plus, everybody knows that good things come in three’s, right?
And more importantly, let go, i.e., take out the machete and whack it off, that one thing that REALLY doesn’t serve you well. Like a shitty boyfriend or a dead-end job.
So kudos to all the courageous souls who L&L in the New Year and change their lives for the better. You deserve it.
Have a safe and Happy New Year everyone! Peace – R
Good things come in threes, so this week Tola Talks is all about celebrating three very special 10 year anniversaries.
The first, a decade of friendship with my lovely co-host, Actress/Producer Troy Titus-Adams. Second, it’s our 10th show since returning to LA Talk Radio – the second time around. And third, it’s my 10 year anniversary of sobriety. That’s right, an amazing decade of hangover-free mornings…not to mention more than $50,000 worth of savings!
There’s also some sober talk about going the mile, i.e., adding an extra 10% to your exercise regime, allowing transgender individuals in the military, plus one of my favorite leadership books by best selling author Dr. John C. Maxwell, Talent is Never Enough.
Have an awesome week everyone, and remember to get your workout in!

Hope you can make tonight’s pre-holiday Tola Yoga class at The Reef (11th Fl). It’s gonna be a killer, plus it’s gonna be my last class at that day/time in 2017. It’s been a blast, with special thanks to everyone at Maker City LA for all their support and for providing such a beautiful space to practice yoga. And to all my students who braved the DTLA city streets at rush hour ♥ See you tonight at 6:15p. Peace – R

Come for the awesome Tola Yoga workout and stay for the amazing beers!
Because it’s Octoberfest in Pershing Square starting at Noon this Sunday, October 22nd, why not get your sweat on then replenish with a little protein and carbs from amazing craft beers from around the world.
Hey, you only live once. Peace – R
No doubt, Tola Yoga is that. For less than your pumpkin spice latte at Starbucks, come treat yourself to the best. Peace – R
See you tomorrow for another great Tola Yoga workout! Peace – R
In honor of National Yoga Month, I have decided to extend my half-price Tola Yoga private lessons through September 30th.
That means anyone from beginner-to-advanced students can transform their practice with some private instruction from yours truly for only $60 per lesson. And only $90 for all corporate or group lessons.
And if you never tried yoga and have questions regarding your ability to practice or just want some insight on how to begin the process, email me and we’ll get you ready: [email protected]
Remember, the journey of a thousand miles starts with just one step.
And no worries if you’re not flexible, because yoga makes you flexible. No doubt. When I took my first class more than a dozen years ago I couldn’t even touch my toes. Within a few months I was touching the ground with my fingertips…and now I can touch both palms to the ground.
Amazing what a little yoga can do for you, not to mention the workout you get with Tola Yoga.
