In our pilot episode, we highlight the differences of yoga in India versus yoga in the US or western world at large. A must listen if you’re an ardent yoga student, a yoga teacher or yoga studio business owner.

Arundhati Baitmangalkar, the show’s host, shares her insight as an Indian immigrant yoga teacher who moved from India and started to teach yoga in the US a few years ago. She highlights the top 5 differences that are immediately noticeable when you walk into an American yoga studio. Highlighting crucial aspects of cultural appropriation but keeping it basic to get the conversation started.

Based on her first article that went viral in 2014, Arundhati draws the parallels of where yoga originated (India) to what has been made of this practice in the western society – this episode is important for modern-day yoga practitioners and yoga teachers alike to start taking notice of the roots of yoga & how far we’ve moved from what yoga really is.
