Review Quotes: What I most love about Donna Noble is that she walks her talk. This book contains valuable knowledge, shared in a clear way so that you can both see how yoga has excluded different groups and how various groups are now claiming yoga and reaping the benefits. Donna has been instrumental in bringing yoga to many of these groups and it is not only well worth reading her book. I would highly recommend attending one of her classes.--Julia Davis "Co-Author "Circle Holding: A Practical Guide to Facilitating Talking Circles"
