Legacy of physical and sexual abuse in yoga and how or if to address it as a teacher.
Hi
Today is Pattabhi Jois' anniversary. This morning I saw a post from my main yoga teacher eulogizing his teaching without any reference to his tainted legacy.
When I was doing my first teacher training we briefly discussed this legacy but without any depth beyond the practice.
I'm wondering how do people treat the tainted legacy of yoga ( including all the culty aspects) and how to reconcile these with your own practice and teaching?
Namaste peeps!
