Do You go to a Yoga Class or a Yoga Lesson?

Yeah, yeah...what's the diff.

Tom-ar-toe...tom-ay-toe.

Funnily enough. There's no difference between a yoga class and a yoga lesson. The event could be billed as both. It could be run as billed, and yet it still could be either a class or a lesson.

Students turn up to class all the time, and still people grow up ignorant.

....<deep pause>...for profound effect.

OK, so, where were we before that random pearl of wisdom... oh yeah, whether it's a class or a lesson depends on whether the student' intends the practice to be a class or a lesson,

...and whether they are receptive to new ideas or not.

Can a class be a lesson, if the student is unreceptive? Yes if something they see, experience or hear resonates and they take notice, and it's a part of a growing body of knowledge, that results in practice later..

Is the practice always a lesson, if the student intends to be receptive during the practice? No, if they are unwilling to make sacrifices.

Remember, yoga is (99%) practice, 1% theory, not the other way around.

This is where we get superficial yogis. Hey, it happens. They talk the talk, thinking that's the way it's supposed to be done. Check out 'response bias'. It's a form of that.

The sad thing, is that it's ok to use yoga for fitness. No personality change required.

But, yeah, short answer; whether it's a class or lesson, is up to the student. Not the teacher. And sometimes it's not even up to the student.
