Take your practice off the page in our Fall Book Club featuring Yoga as Embodied Resistance by Anjali Rao, led by Aditi Sharma!
About Aditi:
Aditi is a public health researcher, lifelong student of yoga, and book lover who is endlessly curious about the intersections of yoga, identity, culture, and justice. She also runs a Nepali diaspora women’s book club in the SF Bay Area and loves creating spaces where people can connect, debate, laugh, and passionately disagree over fictional characters. When she isn’t working or practicing yoga, Aditi can usually be found cuddling her dog with a book in hand—or convincing someone else to read whatever she’s currently obsessed with. She is delighted to bring two of her favorite things, yoga and books, together for this conversation.

Praise for the book:
“This book has stayed with me in how it invites a deeper reflection on yoga through the lenses of caste, gender, and resistance, and how these histories continue to shape the way we practice and teach today..“
About the Author:
Anjali Rao is a yoga educator-practitioner, her work deconstructs the dynamics of power in yoga with a multi disciplinary approach integrating philosophy, art and history. She offers insight into the stories that have been obscured by heteropatriarchy, orthodoxy and colonization.
