As a yoga teacher, I often get a variety of body types in my classes, especially because I offer a program called Big Yoga, which surprisingly, attracts many people of normal weight who appreciate the meditative approach to yoga. As an Integral Yoga trained teacher (for over 30 years!) I appreciate the basic IY Hatha 1 class, because it can be adapted for so many different physical challenges. My original Big Yoga DVD is an adaptation of the Integral Yoga Hatha One class, and can be a transformative practice for yogis at any level, because of its focus on the inner body, rather than the outer body. My new book, Big Yoga: A Simple Guide for Bigger Bodies, is coming out soon, and I'm sorry it didn't get a nod in the article. Great post.
