When I saw the Hydroxycut ads in YJ, that did it for me. I do like the Wisdom articles by Sally Kempton and Anatomy articles by Roger Cole, however. Can Yoga Journal be saved?

Hey Jennifer! Thanks so much for the update about YogaFit. It’s good to hear that they’re still in business. Maybe we’ll have to run a yoga magazine ‘update post’ in the near future… In the meantime, thanks again!

Hi–I’m loving your blog. I recently picked up the 5th Anniversary edition of Fit Yoga so it looks like they’re still in business. Keep up the good work Drishti!

Hi Felicia! We think it’s wonderful that LA Yoga is still printing. We love the magazine and are always excited when the new issue is delivered to our store. It’s definitely full of great content and it’s of course nice to hold a physical magazine in one’s hand and recline on the couch to read it, rather than squint at a computer screen all day. In fact, with the large number of printed yoga mags dropping off, this could actually bring more readers to LA Yoga and end up being a positive thing, in a way, for you guys. Maybe…?

Hi Beatrice! I just checked out Fit Yoga’s website and went to their “Current Issue” page and saw that their ‘current issue’ was listed as August 2008. Considering that it’s April 2009 right now, I don’t think that’s a positive sign that they’re keeping up with printing a magazine. Yikes! Maybe they’ll keep content continuing on their website…?

As the editor of LA YOGA Ayurveda and Health, we’re still printing. I like to think of what we do as edgy, pushing the boundaries, hopefully giving new information, bringing the community togehter, creating inspiration, in print, which people can pass from hand to hand and create a discussion around. Don’t get me wrong, I love blogs (especially the Drishti blog) and I also think there’s a place for the presentation of stories in a magazine. Tell me if I’m wrong or old-fashioned and please write to me at the magazine! felicia@layogamagazine.com

Does anyone know if Fit Yoga is still standing? Was looking for it and could not find it. It was the best mag. for me.

My eyeballs don’t like reading everything online! Come back magazines!

YJ needs to give it up, in my opinion. Seeing photos of women in high heels doing some sort of yoga/tango dance thing was it for me! This Drishti newsletter was far more informative and interesting to me than YJ has been lately. Keep up the good work!
