People don’t wake up one day and decide to become a nudist. It generally takes a catalyst to spark the idea. You might read an article on the subject and become curious. You might decide to air-dry after a shower and walk into the kitchen naked to make a pot of coffee. The air conditioner goes out before the housework is finished and you take your clothes off in an attempt to stay cool. Or a friend might invite you to go to a nude beach and you decide to give it a try... morePeople don’t wake up one day and decide to become a nudist. It generally takes a catalyst to spark the idea. You might read an article on the subject and become curious. You might decide to air-dry after a shower and walk into the kitchen naked to make a pot of coffee. The air conditioner goes out before the housework is finished and you take your clothes off in an attempt to stay cool. Or a friend might invite you to go to a nude beach and you decide to give it a try. Then, during the course of any of these events, something happens. While you’re making the coffee you realize how refreshing your nudity feels. After the housework is finished you realize how good it feels to be free of your clothes. Or before your day at the nude beach comes to an end, you are asking yourself why anyone wants to wear a swimsuit to go swimming. The next thing you know is you are wearing clothes only when you have to. For Tiffany Morgan it happened one day at the river, when she and her younger brother were fishing together. After catching a few catfish, she suggested they go swimming. Without swimsuits, they dove in wearing their underwear, which triggered Tiffany’s imagination. Stepping out of the river, much to her brother’s astonishment, she takes her underwear off. A while later, she successfully taunts him into following suit. Thus begins a new perspective, a new kind of freedom, a way to make life more fun for two teenagers. The question in Tiffany’s mind becomes: can she encourage her mother to get out of her clothes so they can become a family of nudists? less

Yoga is her escape from her harried life in New York. It keeps her in top form for her challenging work as a stockbroker at a busy Wall Street firm.

When her best friend tells her about a nude yoga class she has tried, Natalie’s life will soon never be the same. She has heard about these nude yoga classes, and always assumed they are for voyeurs and exhibitionists, people looking for hookups and one-night-stands. But since her friend had described something entirely different, and plans to go back, Natalie can’t resist considering it for herself. Without the sexual drama she had imagined, she is intrigued by the notion of doing her favorite poses in the nude. The only roadblock is it is a coed class. But her friend convinces her to try it. The ninety minute class becomes a revelation in her life. Then, after getting dressed, when she is approached by the eccentric male instructor and offered private lessons, she believes he is simply trying to score. What she doesn’t know is what passed through the instructor’s mind the minute he saw her, and again as he witnessed her reluctance to take her clothes off, and again as the class proceeded and he watched her do the poses. What she doesn’t know is her destiny is is like a deck of cards being shuffled before the next hand is dealt. less
