[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]White people teaching yoga is cultural appropriation. They even cancelled a yoga class for people with disabilities for this reason: https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/university-ottawa-yoga-cultural-sensitivity-1.3330441 https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/morning-mix/wp/2015/11/23/university-yoga-class-canceled-because-of-oppression-cultural-genocide/?utm_term=.ddb32c5a9893[/quote] They weren't upset about the class they were upset about it being called yoga. References to yoga are found throughout Hindu scripture. If rickety squares wanna stretch on the grass fine let em stretch and call it stretching. Be like if a bunch of squares wanted to start a new dawn to sunset diet and called it the [i]Ramadan Weight Loss Technique[/i] No. That's disrespectful. Hey if you wanna starve yourself have at it but call it something else. [/quote]
