Remember Pink's high-flying workout? Well, this is like the 101 course. It's a beginner's guide to yoga and acrobatics. So, if you've been pondering joining an anti-gravity class—here's a sneak peek. "The best thing you can possibly do for your body, is to refresh all of the systems of the body," explains founder Christopher Harrison, adding that the workout "allows you to have all the benefits of inversion without any compression on your neck." Take for example the classic yoga pose "downward dog," which gets upgraded to a flying downward dog, allowing for a deeper stretch with much less weight on the hands. There's also a fun tail-wagging component. As...

London, Oct 21: Hanging upside down and moving acrobatically, often in mid-air, with legs wrapped around hammocks made from parachute silk, is the coolest new fitness trend to emerge from the States.
AntiGravity Yoga is the brainchild of American choreographer Christopher Harrison, co-founder of Cirque du Soleil.
"The hammock is so supportive that almost anyone can try more difficult poses, such as turning upside down, without risk," the Daily Mail quoted Gillian.

The undead are coming, rising up from their graves to walk once again among the living. But this time they're not appearing on screens, no.

Making 'Footloose': The Movie's Unsung Stars on the Prom Scene and (Gasp) Kevin Bacon's Dance Double
Filed under: Features, Behind the Scenes
A lot has changed since the 1980s, including how dance movies are made. Back then, you could cast a hot-shot young actor and not worry if he could really dance. Now, the lead role in 'Footloose' -- the upcoming remake starring Kenny Wormald, that is -- requires a bona fide hoofer, but in the 1984 original, they disguised the fact that Kevin Bacon didn't do all his own dancing for his big solo warehouse number with clever cuts and inventive lighting.
Peter Tramm, who played Bacon's double, received a screen credit, but many of the other dancers -- such as the breakdancers in the classic prom scene -- did not, especially since they were brought in for a last-minute reshoot to add some zeitgeisty moves.
Moviefone talked to the original's choreographer, Lynne Taylor-Corbett, as well as uncredited dancer Christopher Harrison and Tramm's late partner,...
