Brittanie rated 4 out of 5 many names of yoga 06/18/2007 ~ brittanie

Great review of the people behind the yoga movement. I can't believe there are so many involved! I've done Bikram before but now being able to put a face to the name and a name to the position is exciting. I wish there was a family tree that I could refer to to see all the different branches etc. of the yoga family.
