Behind the Scenes of Sirasana with Dharma Mittra

Dharma Mittra is quite the character. After returning from a 10-day immersion with the modern-day guru at Kripalu Center for Health and Yoga, we've picked up a few of his "tricks" - and trust us he has quite a few of them.

It was pretty incredible to be practicing Sirasana with Dharma Mittra - surly every yogi has seen the iconic photo of him practicing the posture in Times Square.

A few little-known facts about DM: He drives a Segway, He has had a total of 26 bicycles stolen in NYC, He has also had his Segway stolen, He rocks an iPad, iPod, iPod Touch and an iPhone. He will not hesitate to check these devices during a class/lecture.

More Dharma Mittra posts to come - there's a lot to catch up on here in Miami Beach after being gone for two weeks. In the meantime, enjoy this behind-the-scenes video of Dharma's secret behind the unsupported Sirasana. Namaste!
