HTF Yoga Show

Most yoga teachers found their practice, then their first teacher training, from a f*****d up place. An addiction. A break-up. An abusive relationship. A broken home. A traumatic injury.

Join San Diego-based Yoga Teacher Tristan Mangindin as he interviews Yoga Teachers from around the country and shows that we're all still people trying to figure ourselves out in this crazy world, just like you.
