Small Bites – Episode 64

Tweet LIVE on Sunday, October 1st at 635pm Small Bites with Glenn Gross and Derek Timm of Bluejeanfood.com on Wildfire Radio has a great lineup. So you think yoga is relaxing and stress-free? Well you don’t know the half of it. We are thrilled to welcome Sophie Aaronson Jaffe who is a certified raw food chef, accomplished yoga teacher and health and wellness expert with a successful superfood company Philosophie. Sophie Jaffe is also a mom, juggling an increasingly hectic schedule with two young boys, a busy husband and an ever-growing business. She also has partnerships with brands like SHAPE and Free People and a number of celebrity clients who she has cooked for and helped create wellness programs for such as George Clooney, Stacy Keibler and Gerard Butler. She is also one of the top yoga instructors in the fiercely competitive and bustling yoga scene on the Westside of Los Angeles. Sophie is part of a new show where the competitive yoga scene has spawned a new Z Living original series called “Yoga Girls” and these Yoga Girls put the “Om” in “OMG,” as this new ensemble docu-soap follows an elite group of yoga instructors on the “Westside” – LA’s hottest new yoga scene – as they compete to build their client rosters, and leverage their increasing fame and popularity. At the epicenter of the beautiful, the fit, and the fiercely competitive exists a polarizing divide between yoga “traditionalists” and a new generation of social media-driven brand-builders. Yoga Girls reveals a never-before-seen side of yoga in a cutthroat city where the practice can sometimes lead to kicking some serious “asana.” Produced by Charlie Ebersol’s The Company, Yoga Girls premiered Sunday, September 24th at 8 p.m. ET on Z Living so be sure to tune in and catch the other Yoga Girls Caley Joyner, Elise Joan of Elise Joan Fitness.com, Jackie Smyth of Sisterhood of the Traveling Mats.com, Koya Webb with her patented “Get Loved Up” program, Calvin Corzine Yoga, Jesse Schein a senior teacher at Santa Monica’s famed YogaWorks, Vytas Baskauskas, and Sadie Nardini with groundbreaking app “Sadie Nardini’s Ultimate Yoga”. First episode of Yoga Girls can be found here: zliving.com/special-pages/watch-the-first-episode-of-yoga-girls-right-here All that competition has triggered our sweet tooth, and this week in studio Small Bites Radio is sweeter than ever.
