Yoga Competition: Is it an oxymoron?

Magazine Issue: 
February 2010

In the United States, there’s long been controversy over the notion of a yoga competition. Most people see it as an oxymoron, and think that competition is something that the West imposed upon a traditional Eastern practice – but that’s not the case at all.

These competitions have been taking place for centuries in India, and in more than just the physical practice of yoga.

Nora Jeanne Welsh is a certified Bikram Yoga instructor and manager at BYD Austin. Jeff Chen’s competition team is called the Bengal Tigers, in honor of Bikram Choudhury, the Tiger of Bengali. They’ll compete in the international yoga asana championships in February.
