Have you ever tried to do some yoga before playing an instrument? Well, I pracise Yoga Ashtanga (the dynamic form of yoga) and I strongly recommnad it. Even the most basic asans, like Greet the Sun make your body relaxed, breath equal and help to focus on whats really important in what you practise. Not saying anything about advantages of doing yoga before the performances!

Mabe somebody knows if Jordan does it as well?

hello franciszek. id have to say i have once considered doing yoga. every morning last year i think, PBS played this program for Yoga put on by this Hawaian or Japanese woman named Wai Lana (http://www.wailana.com/) and it was great. i cant say i actually did the yoga, but the music, her voice and the scenery all mixed together created a very relaxing morning for me. It does look like fun. i think i have read that JR does yoga, like before shows or something. i dunno, but heres a pic with a cup that says "Yoga Tea" (http://www.jordanrudess.com/studiodiary/day4_003.jpg) on it.
