Yogawoman – the movie
Yoga is an interesting sport. Ever since I became a faithful fan of Sex and the City some many years ago, I’ve been convinced that there is something about yoga that is quite special, giving people – and especially women – who practise it, a certain power. Girls who’ve subscribed to it often talk about how it made them stronger, fitter and more relaxed to face their every day life.
I cannot say I do it 3 times a week, but I do enjoy the odd yoga class in my life, whenever I get around to it. I certainly always attend a few yoga classes whenever I visit India, Yoga’s birth country. What has started out to a sport for men, in the recent years has undergone a revolution where more females than ever are practising yoga, along with a growing number of female teachers.
Written and directed by Kate Clere Mcintyre, YOGAWOMAN – the movie follows some of the leading female yoga teachers around the world – from New York City over Italy all the way to Kenya, always looking to show how yoga effects the lives of women of all nationailities, ages and backgrounds. A lot of interesting subjects are being touched on such as body image, eating disorders or depression, all of which may be affected in a positive way through yoga.
