Episode Details

Rob’s 400th CorePower Yoga class begins in corpse pose. Considering what comes next, that feels appropriate.

In this Halloween edition of Hot Yoga Problems, Rob celebrates a personal milestone with Frankenstein rises, suspiciously seasonal yoga poses, and a playlist that opens with Beethoven instead of “Thriller.”

Between the sweat and the spooky soundtrack, he revisits the work trip that introduced him to CorePower, confesses that his favorite class is usually whichever one fits his schedule, and explains why comparing a yoga studio to McDonald’s is his way of expressing affection.

It’s a celebration of showing up—and of the people who make you want to come back. Naturally, there’s also a detour through childhood zombie costumes and the candy cigarettes he’s handing out with unsolicited advice from a non-parent.

ON THIS EPISODE:

• From an invitation in Minneapolis to 400 CorePower classes.
