Male Gaze: An Italian Man Does Yoga With His Chihuahua

We stumbled across a pile of YouTube gold on Jezebel this afternoon: A man, speaking softly and hypnotically in Italian, practices yoga with his adorable Chihuahua. While the talented, endearing dog (named Panchino) doing its best rendition of “down dog,” “child’s pose,” or “cobra pose” is sure to steal your attention the first time around, be sure to replay the clip. Because the male yoga instructor is equally endearing. Not to mention his lulling voice, well-groomed scruff, and what appears to be a tattoo of a wild cat prowling on his forearm. “Respira, respira, respira.” Happy summer Friday!
