What I liked

Mayuri comes ALIVE in her dancing, and the drummer added so much comedy and depth to the performance!

What I didn't like

I loved every second

My overall impression

The Anti-Yogi is a phenomenal piece that makes audience members reconsider the way they engage with yoga and the world at large. Mayuri is completely in her element, able to express her passion and rage across multiple mediums of expression – dancing as well as acting as multiple people and deities. Yoga is more than just a series of poses. To Mayuri it is a spiritual practice, her culture, and a way of life that leaves the world a better place than the way we found it. I walked away learning so much about the world that she comes from and how I can personally hold myself and others accountable amidst capitalism and appropriation. I’m proud to join the Anti-Yogi army, and I can’t wait for you to go see this show for yourself and experience the passion!
