When I set out to make this site, I wasn’t sure what info was most valuable to Columbia vinyasa students. Though you come from many different backgrounds, places, and academic disciplines, I thought that your yogic interests would be similar, because we all have this in common: we do yoga in a gym at Columbia and we spend too much time wrapped up in our heads.
I assumed that you’d be most interested in the health aspects of yoga and perhaps the medical research to back it up. While this was true for some, I was charmed by how diverse your interests are, the reasons you do yoga, and the heart you put into your questions and comments.
Instead of using your feedback to decide what to focus on, I want you to take over. A majority want to know more about the many schools of yoga, so I devoted a section of the site to this basic but important information. For the rest, I turn to you and address questions and comments that have come in so that you can peruse what is most helpful, and gain something from your fellow yogis’ questions and comments.
