Santa Monica based yoga teacher Vytas Baskauskas joins me on the Spiritual Spiral Podcast this week. Vytas is one of the most well known yoga teachers in the country and he was my primary yoga teacher for almost three years. He currently teaches at Yoga Works Main Street, online at Udaya.com and Beachbody and he teaches at Power Yoga East, a donation based yoga studio in Santa Monica. We talk about yoga and why he may be regarded as a polarizing teacher. We also talk about meditation, the teacher/student dynamic, the expectations that come with being a yoga teacher, the impact of social media as well as lessons he's learned being a father. He also shares a personal story about drug addiction and how he wound up in jail over twenty years ago and ultimately how yoga helped turn his life around. Vytas leads yoga retreats around the world as well as teacher trainings for Yoga Works so whether you're brand new to yoga or someone who's an advanced practitioner, I would definitely suggest you try one of his classes. If you have a moment, head on over to iTunes and write a review for the show and as always, thanks so much for listening.
