"I appreciate your willingness to engage in a conversation around yoga and religion. Any conversation regarding religion has the potential to be uncomfortable and possibly even offensive to some. You did not allow the possible outcomes to deter you from bringing the topic to the forefront and allowing us to give voice to our thoughts on the subject." - Dionne S. Simms
