John Friend, Anusara Yoga Video From Wanderlust 2010

Before the John Friend scandal, people thought Anusara was going to be the next big yoga teacher lineage. His take on Iyengar is still unparalleled. The Universal Principles of Alignment are still considered some of the smartest improvements to yoga. When I worked at Yoga Journal, many of us used to pay money to hear him speak.  He was a great speaker.

I know that might be controversial to say but John Friend’s teachings have basically shaped me into the yogi I am today.  Everyone that I met through Anusara has always been a very competent yoga teacher. Sometimes people make mistakes in their lives, and most of the time it’s usually according to their belief systems, ideological practice, or flaws as human beings.
