Who owns yoga?

On the next Your Call, we'll talk about the practice and the business of yoga in the West. The Hindu American Foundation has launched a campaign to take back yoga, which they say has been stripped of its Hindu roots. But does something like yoga belong to anyone at all? How do we decide if culture belongs to a particular nationality or religion? Join us live at 10 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. Who should determine who has access to yoga? Or who can profit from it? It's Your Call, with Sandip Roy and you.

Guests:
Katchie Ananda, yoga teacher and co-founder of Yoga Sangha

Richard Rosen, yoga teacher and co-founder of Piedmont Yoga Studio

Suhag Shukla, co-founder and managing director for the Hindu American Foundation
