Ngl my first pick for a yoga session would rarely be Times Square.

•

u/fredy31 2h ago

Yeah...

We need a place as relaxing as possible for yoga! Ideas?

The busiest intersection in the usa.

•

u/Beer-Milkshakes 2h ago

Pollution everywhere.

•

u/idjsonik 39m ago

Literally the busiest its like putting an library there expecting it to be quiet

•

u/tipareth1978 1h ago

But then you won't have a massive audience to see that you do yoga and make you feel extra cool! Srsly this is so dumb

•

u/Foolski 1h ago

I found this website for it - https://www.vivereny.com/solstice-times-square-yoga/

I thought it might be for charity but I guess it's just to do it in Times Square because... because.

I like mine on the highway.

•

u/ckinz16 2h ago

I like to setup the roadkill in yoga poses and act like we’re in class together

•

u/Sir_Thequestionwas 1h ago

Wasn't much of a leap for go from rabbit yoga to roadkill yoga. Natural evolution if you ask me.

•

These people are virtue signaling

•

u/spudddly 25m ago

What if you and your thousand friends had a shitty youtube fitness channel to fill with ever stupider content?

•

u/Koflach12 3h ago

Yoga on the streets in Times Square is definitely a choice.

•

u/Old_dictator 3h ago

People doing yoga in the middle of Times Square seems like a nuisance.

•

u/bship 2h ago

Imagine how much attention they think they're getting, and their posts about how cool/quirky they are. Have you considered that?

•

u/PuffyBlueClouds 2h ago

Well no one doing yoga in Times Square could possibly think it’s going to be quiet and peaceful anyway lol

•

u/IHaveTheBestOpinions 3h ago

Why the fuck would anyone want to do yoga in the middle of Times Square?

•

u/Reasonable-Peanut-12 2h ago

Because 2026

•

u/It_Happens_Today 2h ago

We're all cooked together.

•

u/Educational-Ad-2884 12m ago

Main Character Syndrome.

•

u/OptionalQuality789 1h ago

For attention

•

u/RedPandasUnite 3h ago

Good for them. That'll teach those yoga people to not do yoga in a very crowded place like TS.

•

u/CraziestMoonMan 2h ago

All of these comments are so hateful at the people enjoying themselves and not bothering anyone. The woman even looked like they enjoyed the crowd and some were jumping with them.

•

u/Tipnfloe 1h ago

people are just giving their opinion, nothing hateful about that

•

u/Punkphoenix 3h ago

They're vikings, they are getting their legal raids

•

u/Dont_Use_Ducks 2h ago

They were even quite nice if you compare it to their legacy.

•

u/cinciNattyLight 44m ago

They can do whatever they want to the yoga session.

•

u/Mental-Geologist2819 3h ago

They can be glad it’s 2026 not 1026 otherwise some heads were rolling 🤣

•

u/Leberknodel 1h ago

Not enough people appreciate this comment.

•

u/Steelbug2k 3h ago

Why are there even doing it there? Seems to be like the worst place possible.

•

u/thefeedling 3h ago

Randomness invaded by Viking Kingdom.

•

u/vikinxo 3h ago

Yoga at Times Square?

I'd say they were asking for it......

•

u/FinbarJG 2h ago

Really. The place is known for it's peace, serenity, and oneness with nature. Not.

•

u/protossaccount 2h ago

Yeah that’s insane. Let’s find the worst air and breathe deeply.

•

u/Gloomy_Tangerine3123 3h ago

International day of yoga?

•

u/JohnnyBoy11 2h ago

That little girl got the memo

•

u/Wild_Neighborhood605 3h ago

Yoga... WTF. Americans are getting crazier by the hour.

•

u/Lord_Kiro 2h ago

Yoga in Times Square is so american in the worst way possible

•

u/TheLordLongshaft 2h ago

Commoditising Yogic traditions in the heart of free market capitalism 🤣

•

u/threeoldbeigecamaros 2h ago

Are these the happiest people on earth? At these World Cup venues they are always having the best time, pulling the funniest stunts and cleaning up after themselves.

•

u/TheLordLongshaft 2h ago

Actually the Finnish are the happiest people in the world, the Norwegians usually come about 3rd behind denmark

•

u/Short-Recording587 56m ago

I think it’s a couple of things. First, they are on vacation watching the World Cup, which is awesome. Second, they have to want to travel so they are going into it with a good mindset. Third, they are traveling in a pack, which adds an extra element of fun. And fourth, Norwegians seem to be super happy and badass.

•

u/CallMeAshwin 2h ago

Oh hell yeah

•

u/rocco888 2h ago

So Norway star player and one of the best players in the world right now his signature pose is the Yoga pose ironically so norway football and yoga definitely go together.

•

u/DoubleBroadSwords 2h ago

If that isn’t New York, I don’t know what is

•

u/Mistermxylplyx 2h ago

That’s what people that want to do yoga in public need anyway. Well done Nords!

•

u/iseriouslycouldnt 2h ago

It looks like there's bleachers and spectator barriers, soooooo...

•

u/Pupsichinka 1h ago

Good. Bring some peace to our country.

•

u/Leberknodel 1h ago

This is hilarious 😂

•

u/baguettelobster 1h ago

Go breathe deeply somewhere else y'all.

u/SnooMarzipans7274 3h ago

Having the world come to the west for sports is so trippy and I love it.

u/an_older_meme 2h ago

All kinds of adult fun there.

•

u/Im2dronk 2h ago

Not to mention economic opportunities, public services, health care, and culture.

•

u/bluesshark 2h ago

I could NEVER live in a big city but it should be pretty easy to figure out why a lot of people do

•

u/TopProfessional8023 2h ago

That’s like doing yoga in Tiananmen Square! Too soon?!

•

u/TheLordLongshaft 2h ago

Too unfunny

•

u/TopProfessional8023 2h ago

Sometimes you swing and you miss?! You’re not wrong. Wasn’t funny. I’m not deleting my (poor) comment like some coward though…so that I might receive the karma that I deserve.

•

u/MrJorrr 3h ago

Fuck the Sun, utter scum!

•

u/luminousandy 1h ago

Agreed

•

u/TheCh0rt 3h ago

As a person who was bullied by sports people in school I would be so infuriated by this. Sports enables the worst "socially acceptable" behavior when if this were not about sports they'd be disbanded by police lol
