Celebrity name-dropping New York yoga teacher [Annelise Hagen](http://www.yogaface.net) of the prerequisitely snobby New York Health & Racquet Club is promoting Face Yoga.

According the Hagen, the bizarre facial exercises prevent aging and wrinkles and is practiced by stars like Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Aniston. [Face Yoga](http://www.yogaface.net) is the latest way to combine yoga, fear of aging/plastic surgery and desperation into a strange and somewhat humorous, though ultimately useless, activity.

Hagen says doing it daily will give skin "more elastic, less saggy and deliver a more glowing, youthful complexion". Can't make it to her classes? She's also launched a book called [Yoga Face: Eliminate Wrinkles With The Ultimate Natural Facelift](http://www.amazon.com/Yoga-Face-Eliminate-Wrinkles-Ultimate/dp/1583332774) which can be bought on [Amazon](http://www.amazon.com/Yoga-Face-Eliminate-Wrinkles-Ultimate/dp/1583332774).
