The bendiest photos from International Yoga Day in Tel Aviv
The asanas are out of this world.


What happens when hundreds of yogis and yoginis converge in one town square on a warm, sunny day in Tel Aviv, Israel?
A whole lot of bending, sweating and chakra-awakening, that's what.
International Yoga Day was yesterday, so to mark the occasion, Israel's most devoted yoga practitioners spread out their mats and stretched out their bodies together in Rabin Square in the center of town.

The scene, essentially, was just a bunch of different yoga classes being held in one place. But between the vibrant patterned leggings and the brilliantly colored mats arranged in circles, we prefer to call it ... a rainbow of relaxation.
