The difference in between Yoga Works and the guru-based model of Iyengar Yoga, and about the horizontal vs the vertical model of apprenticeship.

Kinesiopathologizing, in contrast to Movement Optimism, from the lens of Dr. Greg Lehman.

The mistake that movement specialists make in terms of trying to fix posture, vs exposing people to a variety of movement.
