Summary
Whether you're yoga teacher or a student, you've witnessed:
** The Moaner -- The student who seems to be enjoying class a leetle too much.
** The Rebel -- The student who's just gotta do their own thannnng (and ignore what the rest of the class is doing)
** The Savasana Protester -- So what if everyone's in Savasana? She's kicking into Handstand and no one's gonna stop her.
We talk about all of the behaviors -- and more -- on this week's podcast. Tune in to find out how Jason handles these uncomfortable (yet common!) yoga room behaviors.
