Dark Side of the Mat Podcast

Always insightful, sometimes sarcastic, never shaming. Hosts @katrebar and @mindbodyfandom rant about the #creeps, #cults, and #crimes in the #yoga world.

You did it! Bikram's event has been "rescheduled!" But please don't let your guard down, as this doesn't mean that the event is cancelled. We need to stay alert for where/when Bikram might next try to profit from his crimes.

[Dark Side of the Mat Podcast @matdarkside]

Bikram is coming to Canada!...or is he? In this very special episode, Colin Hall tells Justine and Producer Kyle about his efforts to thwart Bikram's plans in operation "F that guy!" Tune in and then join the fight! (links to how you can get involved in the show notes)

Guess who's back, back again? Dark Side's back, tell a friend! After a lengthy hiatus, Dark Side of the Mat is back. In this Season 2 intro producer Kyle asks Justine and Kat for their insights about spiritual abuse, and somehow learns about Justine's lost dream of owning a pony.
