How to get followers on instagram: Winning at Instagram Yoga
The other day on my yoga instagram account, I received a well-meaning comment on the picture above – (which was snapped on holiday in Australia) saying,
“I love your drawings And i think you are very cool and cute and good at yoga. But I have to be honest with you, I really don’t like your drapes that you make a lot of your photos/videos in front. Your photos look much better when you have a background like in this one. Combining these kind of photos with your drawings and your nice comments, I think your feed will be much better. Loose the indoor yoga shots in front of the purple drapes, and you will have many more followers. Just my opinion, anyways…. I wish you all the best and I love following you all the way from Norway
GURRL.
I totally agree!
Unfortunately though, as I don’t live on a beach or in fact anywhere tropical at all, getting beach shots every damn day proves to be rather challenging. And, as I have come to realise through the world of instagram that –
How to get more followers on instagram
So, in a desperate attempt to prove my actual worth as a real yogi and obviously to GROW MY INSTAGRAM ACCOUNT, I decided to contact PartyRama and explain my extreme yoga crisis.
The lovely party-people at PartyRama understood my plight immediately (and by immediately I mean responding to my SOS-email within half an hour of me hitting send! holler, customer service!). They offered to send me some beach so that I can finally be a real yogi! HOORAY!
And they threw in some add-on palm trees – because WHAT is a beach without a palm tree?
It was so quick and easy to build-a-beach that in absolutely NO time, I was doing my yoga things.
DAMN. It feels great to be a real yogi at last!
But sometimes beach yoga is rather taxing and you just have to stop and do a bit of sun-tanning.
I have to agree, yoga on the beach is MUCH better than yoga in front of my regular purple sheet. Although I do keep getting sand blown into my eyes which is a real hack, but it’s totally worth it as long as I get the shot.
Since this is the surest way to build my following (follow me) I have decided to think outside the beach-box and really just insert myself into any and all exotic locations – so that I can hashtag the shit out of myself.

Party Rama have such a wide range of scenes that I think I might take my yoga to the wild-west next, what do you think?

PS – thank you SO much to the guys at Party Rama (and your epic customer service) for helping me validate myself as a real yogi.
I truly could NOT have done it without you.
I LOVE your reaction to an… interesting comment. You make everyone who doesn’t have easy access to a beautiful, sunset beach scene on a daily basis realize that real yoga doesn’t have to be anywhere but where you are. Thanks, Che! <3
hahaha! Yay for bedroom yogis! 🙂
This is brilliant, I love it ❤️
haha <3
Brilliant!! I happen to love your purple background ;). And as someone who (at the moment) has access to beaches galore, I will tell you that it’s not all it’s cracked up to be…….sand gets everywhere, uneven surfaces are terrible for alignment and while most beach shots don’t show it, there are ALWAYS people gawping at you!! I rarely take beach shots these days and you never really see people actually properly practicing yoga on beaches. Just keep on keeping it real! Your authenticity shines with or without fancy locations! Xxx
Hahaha hilarious!! I must say that on the rare instances when I actually have done “REAL” beach yoga I kept thinking – “geez. there is a LOT of sand everywhere. I think I have sand in my eye. NO DUDE, DON’T WALK IN MY SHOT. This sand is particularly sandy. Oh great there is definitely sand in my hair. I wish this wind would stop blowing. Is this bikini top falling off? This is so not easy to balance on.” haha long live the purple sheet! hahaha 🙂
Che, you are HILARIOUS! I giggled seeing you and Warr building your indoor beach on Snapchat. I LOVE your instagram exactly as it is. You’re real and authentic. You always show the most important thing about yoga is doing it – every damn day. Most people practice at home, so that’s reality for a lot of us. Miss you! xx
hahaha! Indoor beach yoga is all the rage!!! I agree the most important thing is the EVERY. DAMN. DAY. I miss you!! How is life!? what is news?! x
LOL Stop – this is why your beach madness has ensued!!! It’s all making sense now!
And geeze to the person who wrote the comment in the first place…..
From one yogi to another yogi, I barely notice your purple drapes, but instead notice your flows and awesome strength + your sense of humor!
So please, bring back the purple sheets and I’ll keep the beach shots coming (since the beach is literally ten minutes from me).
Lots of love babe!
