FYI: This YouTube video uses the f-word once in the last few seconds of the video

I couldn't see the New York Times article, because it said I need to login to see it.

I watched the video. It's funny. What are goji berries?

This is one of the reasons why I avoid such places. This is good vairagya for me.

I know right?!?

I thought twice about posting this, but then decided to because I thought the video was silly and entertaining, and because it seems to be an serious issue in some studios. I was having similar problems with another student, a man in my case, in my original teacher training. I felt alone and angry about his unwanted attention during that year. Trying to ignore him only made it worse. I found out later that I was not the only woman who was having issues with this man; 3 other young women shared their similar stories with me after the program ended. I regret not protecting myself during that time, but I was young and unsure of what to do. I was also shocked that this was happening in a Yoga school.
