Thrash Yoga

Thrash Yoga is not yet on the horizon, much to the comfort of a few people who think breathing can be too loud for neighborhood noise standards. Now, let's all chant together, but quietly, "where's my pony....."

Oh please. This sounds more like an issue with a gentrifying neighborhood than loud yogis. Ashtanga is perhaps a little louder than hatha yoga but it is certainly reasonable. Even a group of the most advanced Ashtanga students couldn't breath any louder than the noise produced by an air conditioner unit or any other small business. (The sound is more like the surf than Darth Vader, soft but certainly audible.) Kundalini, especially kundalini of sound classes, can get quite loud, but it's not mentioned in the article.
