The pastor of James River Church in Ozark, Missouri, has
warned his congregation against practicing yoga, which he says has demonic
roots. The Assembly of God church has about 10,000 members, some of whom are actually yoga instructors.
Since the sermon, yoga teachers in the area have experienced a
severe drop in class attendance, and it’s hurting their businesses.
However, a fitness center owned by the church offers a “body
flow” class. According to some yoga teachers, one pose it teaches is identical
to the Downward Facing Dog of yoga.
So—is yoga only demonic if you’re paying a non-church-owned
gym to teach it?
