Episode 03: Is yoga losing its roots? Cultural appreciation & teaching yoga in modern times - with Sunita Devi

What is it like heading a yoga teacher training program? What is important to remember & honour in your teachings as a Western yoga teacher these days? We invited Sunita to chat with us about these topics and to give us some guidance on avoiding cultural appropriation, and instead showing appreciation for a sacred practice with its roots from Indian culture. Is it ok to change yoga so much to sell out an event for profit and still call it yoga? Think puppy yoga and beer yoga… Is Sanskrit something that yoga teachers need to understand and use in class? We discuss where we think yoga is headed as a multi billion dollar industry and how to apply ancient philosophical practices to your everyday life.
