Quote:
In Nairobi, we have 42 teachers. Each teacher has picked their own center that they teach yoga at. At each center, there are ten to 50 to a hundred children, or adults. They teach at the gamut of places, from homeless shelters to clinics for HIV positive women, to primary schools, to pieces of grass that look like good places for yoga.
