Brandy Ledford Wants to See Channing Tatum ‘in Downward Dog’

Brandy Ledford has big plans for 2025 and one of them involves seeing Channing Tatum in a compromising yoga pose.

The Baywatch: Hawaii alum has taken up yoga as a way of staying present and has even begun teaching the craft. She told Us Weekly that one of her goals is to start a celebrity yoga retreat.

Her friends are first on the invite list, but after that, it’s Magic Mike himself.

“I want my really good friend, Denise Richards. I think we’d have a blast. My friend is Cindy Crawford‘s trainer. I think she would be amazing to come,” Ledford, 55, told Us at the Los Angeles Mission’s annual Christmas celebration. “Channing Tatum, because I want to see him in Downward Dog. That would be great. I want to see him in all kinds of Downward Dog.”

For the uninitiated, Downward Dog is one of the most famous yoga poses. It involves placing one’s head on the floor with arms stretched forward, legs straight with feet planted on the floor and hips high in the air.

On a more serious note, Ledford’s interest in promoting yoga in the new year comes from an effort to stay sober.

“I think that would be really fun. Be fun and just stay sober,” she added. “Continue to stay sober. And I’m looking into doing some brand partnerships, so I think that’d be really fun, just being, like, an over 50-year-old celebrity influencer.”

She expanded on the importance of yoga in her life in an Instagram video in June.

“Today and every day, I celebrate the transformative power of yoga,” she wrote in the caption to a video showing her leading a group through a yoga exercise. “As a yoga teacher, I’m humbled to share this ancient discipline and witness its profound impact. Yoga is more than just exercise — it’s a harmonious blend of clarity, vitality, and spirituality. It’s where music meets movement, creating a sanctuary for my soul.”

She continued, “Yoga is a crucial part of my sobriety journey, helping me cultivate inner peace, balance, and connection. I’m grateful for its role in my life and honored to be part of a global community that recognizes its benefits.”

While Ledford’s spiritual life focuses on her own sobriety and mindfulness, she added that it was “absolutely essential” to give back to the community.

“I often love to give financial donations, and I don’t often get an opportunity to actually serve,” she said of her time at the LA Mission. “So to be able to do both feels really meaningful. I also love the idea of promoting it to hope that more people will donate if they see us here.”
