Yes, it's that time again. The holidays are over—maybe not the poundage though! The Fash Week circuit is upon us—Berlin is next week, darhlinks! And Chic is getting the latest inside scoops for toning up before taking the front row. This one's just in from our friends at the Chic-quinox. Loving those long, lean lines you get from yoga? Stay dedicated because a few classes here or there won't get you anywhere. "I see so many people just pop into yoga classes once in a while but they could never get to the arm balance stage because they don't do the work," says Lashaun Dale, national creative manager of group fitness. "You gotta do the work. People are now starting to become more interested in the esoteric part of yoga and understanding that they can’t get to the higher level without the basics. It’s about commitment. When you commit, you can have that kind of magic on the mat." Need inspiration? Check out 15 year vet and Equinox yoga instructor Briohny Smyth's moves. Cirque worthy and surely chic!
