Yogawoman

Documentary exploring the generation of modern women leading the way in yoga, a practice brough to the west by a lineage of men.

Through personal stories - from the bustle of Manhattan to the dusty slums of Kenya - and interviews with leading experts, Yogawoman relates how, in record numbers, women are discovering yoga. Reclaiming this ancient spiritual path from its traditionally male form, the result is a transformation of modern yoga. Led by a new generation of dynamic female teachers, this 'new' yoga replaces a more rigid style with a distinctly feminine practice that honors intuition, family, flow, connection, community, activism, and the cyclical nature of women’s lives.
