Bend it like Beckham

If it’s good enough for Colin Farrell, then it’s good enough for Dave Kenny. He joins a growing number of men and puts the downward facing dog to the test at an ashtanga yoga course.

IT’S 10 o’clock on a Friday morning and I am staring at the floor. My feet are where my head should be, and my wrists are creaking under the weight of my body.

I have found myself in similarly-contorted positions on innumerable times in the past. Generally, there has been a lot of booze consumed the previous night. On this occasion, I am not hungover. This is a voluntary experience.
