Lady Gaga At Yoga Studio Before Performance

Lady Gaga Spent Time At A Cleveland Yoga Studio Before Her Sold-Out Performance

American cultural icon Lady Gaga reportedly had a private yoga session in Cleveland (Ohio, USA) before she performed at a sold-out Quicken Loans Arena recently.

She reportedly had this session barefoot in an area studio of “Om Yoga”, which is described as a practice of flowing yoga asanas informed by precise attention to alignment and supported by the relaxed wakefulness.

Yoga teacher, who lead this session, reportedly remarked later about Lady Gaga: she’s a yogi at heart. In her recent Tweet, Lady Gaga talked about “rocknroll power yoga”.

Hindu statesman Rajan Zed, in a statement in Nevada (USA) today, urged Lady Gaga to explore the spiritual dimension of yoga also besides its physical benefits. Yoga, referred as “a living fossil”, was a mental and physical discipline by means of which the human-soul (jivatman) united with universal-soul (parmatman).

Zed, who is President of Universal Society of Hinduism, quoted Patanjali, author of the basic text Yoga Sutra, according to whom yoga was a methodical effort to attain perfection, through the control of the different elements of human nature, physical and psychical. Yoga was one of the six systems of orthodox Hindu philosophy, take a look at the rest of the five schools also, Rajan Zed suggested Lady Gaga.

American recording artist Lady Gaga, 24, has been listed in Time and Forbes lists of 100 most influential people in the world this year. Her single "Poker Face" reportedly topped nearly all the charts worldwide and won her a Grammy. She has reportedly received about 82 awards in all.
