“Komic Genius: Enlighten up with Yogi G”
Sag Harbor Express

Looking for a little inner peace? Hoping for some enlightenment along the way? Or maybe you’re just curious about exploring a past life or two. If so, then Yogi G is your man. Yogi G is the creation of Sag Harbor playwright and actor Geoffrey Paul Gordon, a longtime aficionado and practitioner of Kripalu yoga. who explains that he first began “channeling” Yogi G at the end of 2007.
“He’s silly, saucy, shameless, witty and completely dedicated to making people laugh.” Gordon admits he was surprised at first by the number of audience members who follow Yogi G’s lead by taking on the poses he strikes in the course of the performance. Given the quick success he’s experienced, Gordon must have his chakras all in a row. He now performs Komic Yoga in his hometown New York City and all over. For Gordon, taking Yogi G to the next level required that he reincarnate his younger days when he studied acting at the Neighborhood Playhouse.
“I get to be the whole show, total immersion. It’s all about the healing power of laughter, that’s the bottom line. But Yogi G also throws in the meaning of life,” whispers Gordon, “so Komic Yoga is a really good value.”
