The Inequality of Yoga in America

Is yoga too exclusive in America?  Is a regular yoga practice at a studio a privilege for only the affluent?  Our show’s number one fan, Fadia Bascom, will discuss these questions and more about what yoga means today in America.  Loyal listeners know Fadia as a passionate yogini who is an advocate for the underserved.  She is joined by Malik Wilson, a certified Vinyasa yoga teacher at Dhyana in his hometown of Philadelphia.  Together, they'll examine the ironies of a practice which was founded on the traditions of unity and connection but has become more of a self-serving practice for only the haves.  Whether you wear lululemon or Target yoga pants, don't miss this important conversation about the two economies of yoga in America.
