Not enough good things can be said about this show. If you want to learn, feel, laugh, be amazed, and did I mention *learn,* this is your show. Personal, universal, emotional, and expertly crafted and performed. Mayuri is a phenomenal performer and her writing strikes you in the heart and mind. Top of the Fringe....

Clever, thorough, funny, and smart. The way this performance comes together and touches on how yoga has been taken apart for profit is incredible. The storytelling and message is clear, and it will make you re-thing what you know yoga to be....

This show embodies what an one women showcase can achieve. I came out of this show learning and appreciating Yoga as a cultural practice. The interplay between different characters ( I loved Daniela !!) and beautiful use of multimedia made it really entertaining to watch. Hats off to Mayuri.
Its a must watch...

It was a powerhouse performance by Mayuri who is a dazzling dancer and wonderful storyteller. She is mesmerizing. The specificity in her character/voice work was wonderful. I loved the use of multi-media and live percussion. It's a fabulous must-see show with an important message. ...

The Anti Yogi was one of the best one-person shows I have ever seen. Mayuri Bhandari portrays several diverse characters from a vacuous Valley-girl Yoga teacher to the Buddha without skipping a beat. She also wrote the show which tells the story of her lifetime commitment to the practice of Yoga and how this has shaped and defined her world view. The show is funny, thought provoking and uplifting. Oh, and did I mention she's also a beautiful dancer? The live percussionist is also a plus. Run, do not walk, to see this show!...
