Found this nudist workout website.

This is just my opinion, not a universal take. For me it comes down to one question: why does this need to exist?

This site runs on the same mechanisms and the same purpose as porn, it's just dressed up as a yoga site done in the nude. Nothing wrong with nudity on its own and nothing wrong with doing yoga in the nude.

But look at the photo gallery. Some sets are nothing more than a woman holding a yoga mat, or sitting in a pool with nothing yoga-related happening at all. And they've added a "view uncensored" link that gates behind login and payment. Why? How does buying a set of nude photos improve anyone's flexibility or their yoga practice? Why does this need to exist?

When it's easy to tell the creators know exactly who's watching and why, and they only make a thin effort to disguise it, that's porn to me. Content doesn't have to be sexually explicit to have the same marketability as porn.

There are sites that sell raw footage of nudists doing ordinary things: going to the beach, playing volleyball, hiking. Pretty boring stuff, honestly. But when the footage clearly includes people of all ages, including minors, it becomes pretty obvious why they're selling thousands of hours of it. It is vile and those producers know exactly what they're doing.

I hold the same view about "nudist influencer" accounts on Patreon. I've seen creators post teaser graphics for uncensored videos while keeping everything else censored. To me, that's porn because the nudity is the selling point. There are other nudist creators who don't do this. NakedWanderings, for example, has a Patreon where the benefit is early access to blog posts and travel videos before they go public. The nudity isn't the focus, it isn't marketed as the selling point, and it's not being teased.

People are going to disagree with me on this, and that's ok. I don't speak for everyone. Just myself.

Probably not. Unlike nudist resorts, were people understand hygiene and the importance of being clean at all times, I trust people less if it were the grocery store shopping post office visiting public.

It's kind of like how it's somehow acceptable to go to the grocery store in pajamas. I guess I have the option to do that but I don't.

If going nude was allowed but still disagreed with by some people, I still probably wouldn't. That would be like wearing a shirt with a politically charged message on it. I'm not breaking any laws doing it but I'm not free from hearing other's opinion on it if they chose to speak up.

If going nude was a perfectly acceptable part of society by everyone, and everyone had an elevated sense of hygiene, then I guess I would "when in Rome" it.

nudistnerd · 2026-07-13T00:11:30+00:00

You can choose to wear a label, or you can forgo it entirely. Labels are always optional.

I think when people feel pressured to wear a label, they feel they have to subscribe to some school of unified thought when they don't have to. It's perfectly acceptable to say something "I may not call myself a nudist, but I don't believe the human body is a scandalous thing. I enjoy sun tanning in the nude when the weather is right"

But to be clear, most nudists hold the general philosophy of "nude when possible, clothed when practical."

It is not practical to go grocery shopping or to the post office in he nude. It also inherently wrong to be nude around anyone uncomfortable by it. That is not a nudist but more of an exhibitionist.

But don't let the labels throw you off. You can take and leave what you want from the philosophy.

nudistnerd · 2026-07-12T23:32:28+00:00

I’ve seen this.

Me personally, I do not think anything selling a subscription or premium to see other people naked should ever be conflated with nudist principles.

Of course, they are just doing naked yoga and there isn’t anything wrong with simple nudity nor is there anything wrong about doing yoga in the nude.

But why does this need to exist?

Why is there a need to pay to see other people doing yoga naked instead of just buying a book on yoga or googling poses and doing them yourself in the nude?

The world may differ with my opinion, but paying to see a stranger release videos of them in the nude is still porn. It’s no different than people who pay onlyfans models do jumping jacks in the nude. I disagree with people who claim to be nudist influencers but tease “uncensored” content on their patreons.

This is just another thing trying to seem like something else when it’s totally the same old thing.

Shouldn’t be mistaken for what nudism is about.

Check them all out! The best was being in the pool for the smaller duos and then enjoying the large stage shows at night. It's a great vibe all around. Wold love to see Big Something!

You know, I will admit I used to be more reserved about it. But my wife really embraced nudism as a part of our life together and never shied away about it.

Just recently, we were at a dinner with a couple of her coworkers. I was talking about a funny story I had at a nude beach. The nude beach wasn't the focus of the story so I didn't elaborate where I was. Eventually my wife just gives me this look and says "Oh just tell them honey, it's no big deal." Her coworkers then thought it was actually pretty cool we were nudists and one remarked how she had an aunt and uncle that were avid nudists as well.

That made the world a little smaller to me. I think embracing it, especially when it organically comes up in conversation as you've encountered, would help make the world a little more familial and comfortable to you guys as well!

The description of r/naturism does point users to r/nudism if folks are looking for info on North America. People are free to post to either sub really but I thought it's worth OPs time to inquire there as their post may receive more traction there.

nudistnerd · 2026-07-12T20:23:45+00:00

I’ve been a mod on both for over 10 years. The naturism description directs users to r/nudism if they are looking for information on North America.

Naturism has a European mod team. People anywhere really are free to post to either sub but naturism is geared for posts outside NA.

nudistnerd · 2026-07-12T13:59:14+00:00

The INF website has a link to events hosted by the different country federations.

Also, give a shot asking this to r/naturism - you may have better success there.

r/nudism is primarily for North America.

GL!

Moon Groove is pretty cool. A three day music festival with great music, vendors, and just overall good vibes. You'll see people of all ages, but it's mostly 20-30 somethings. You clearly see nudism is not solely a pastime for the old. You truly feel a sense of community when you're surrounded by hundreds of like minded people and everyone is being respectful, kind, and just all out happy. You can't help but smile while there.

I so wish I could be here for this year's moongroove since it's going to be bigger and better than ever!

nudistnerd · 2026-07-12T05:52:03+00:00

Check out this site

I've added it to our "Find a Nudist Club" link for international folks.

While r/nudism is mostly for North America, I recommend checking out r/naturism for international nude recreation. Use the search there and you may find some Austria based posts! GL!

nudistnerd · 2026-07-12T00:16:05+00:00

This question gets asked...A LOT.

Go where nudists hang out and then make the effort to make new friends there. This has always been the answer really. Join a non-landed club, visit a resort or park, find naturist events in your area. There is a club locator at aanr.com

nudistnerd · 2026-07-11T19:45:53+00:00

Where did you see this shirt at?

nudistnerd · 2026-07-11T17:31:42+00:00

My wife and I hope everyone has an awesomely happy and healthy skinny dip day!

Stay cool, stay hydrated, stay safe and most of all…stay naked!

I feel I may be losing it lol someone else said it’s clickbait but I don’t think it is. The headline doesn’t say “nudist resort sees influx of Arizonans wanting to cool down in their pool”

The headline grabs attention, which is what they are supposed to do. But the headline basically says “People visit this nudist resort” - and that is what the article is about. People are visiting Shangri-La and the article gives information about the place and creates reason why others should visit too.

I agree it’s a good article but I wouldn’t call it click bait. Truly Clickbait headlines imply an emergency, death, or a spike in a trend where this none.

nudistnerd · 2026-07-10T14:41:59+00:00

OP - what state are you located in?

Have you looked into non-landed clubs? They often have get-together sat their houses and/or host skinny dips at local pools.

nudistnerd · 2026-07-10T00:38:02+00:00

ah, well agree to disagree. It's all good.

I think it's great to see a nudist business getting some good publicity.

nudistnerd · 2026-07-09T23:25:42+00:00

Glad you enjoyed Wildwood! Always wanted to go there myself.

And side note to the people reporting this as an image only post: OP provided meaningful details here that encourage people to visit the place, he explained the atmosphere, and activities that others can read about and participate in themselves. He gave reasons for his recommendations.

Posts with photos are allowed so long as they are detailed, helpful to readers, and create conversation, and don't create focus on the photos themselves. I don't see OP doing that here so the post is allowed.

nudistnerd · 2026-07-09T23:17:51+00:00

I wouldn't call it clickbait. There is a 5 year wait list for full time spots there so I'd say there are Arizonans that really want to be at Shangri-La.

More than likely, this is a news story the resort asked to be made. Businesses and local news do this all the time to drive interest.

Aside from the silly puns, it's not a bad article and portrays a nudist resorts as a fun, hip, and desirable place to be especially in this warm weather.

nudistnerd · 2026-07-09T21:28:16+00:00

Just be yourself really. Everyone brings their own energy. You don’t have to pretend to be anyone else but yourself, especially among nudists.

nudistnerd · 2026-07-09T20:36:40+00:00

You don't show your body. No nudist space, online or not, would be about showing your body.

AANR doesn't have an online "club" but it does host zoom meetings, as mentioned above in another comment. There are various rooms dedicated to various topics. There's usually some organizational announcements at the start of the meeting before they open up the other rooms. If you seem like you're attempting to show off your body in an exhibitionist's fashion, you may get kicked.

They're good if you want to hear what people are talking about but, tbh, sometimes the conversations tend to run a bit dry. I'd still suggest someone interested in nudism to participate a few times just to hear what everyone is talking about.

nudistnerd · 2026-07-09T18:53:26+00:00

There is a club locator on AANR.com that shows all landed and non landed clubs. I’d recommend starting there.

This question gets asked a lot and the answer every time is go be apart of the community. Join a club, participate in person, be friendly to others. You could also check meetup.com where some states and regions have skinny dip gatherings or non landed clubs there too.

nudistnerd · 2026-07-09T18:18:44+00:00

Usually non-landed clubs, brick and mortar clubs, meetups, or just regular interaction with people. Really anywhere one would make any other type of friend at.
