Yoga is a craze in European Country, Almosteveryone seems to do it. Yoga is practiced back home, but it is available far more easily and commercially available here. The west has successfully commercialized yoga and there’s an amazing range and variety. Back home, people practice yoga as a way for spiritual growth and pursue other practices like going to the gym or aerobics for health reasons. When I looked at class schedules here, I was often surprised and shocked at the variety that was offered. I knew of different styles and lineages, but the idea of chocolate yoga, yoga to live music, rock-and-roll yoga, less cloth yoga, love yoga, etc. would shock the daylights out of me. Coming from a traditional yoga background, I often found myself annoyed and upset, but soon learned to ignore the eccentric ideas that have borrowed the name of yoga read less
