KQED Report-#MeToo Unmasks Sexual Abuse in Yoga

by | Sep 9, 2018 | General | 0 comments

Miranda Leitsinger of KQED has just published her report on sexual abuse in yoga. The link is below. This is a comprehensive article that discusses this problem from many perspectives. It is essential reading for all members of the yoga community. We need to take a hard look at our conduct. We need to understand  the extent of the problem.  We need to make substantive changes to the way that we train our teachers, run our studios and conduct our classes. Students must  learn what is acceptable behavior from their teachers and what is not. Miranda interviewed me for the article, and I am quoted several times. Most of my observations came from my article Lets Clean Up Yoga Now: Take a Stand. Stop the Crap! It is on my blog so be sure and give it a read.
