Description

On this episode of UNGENTRIFIED, I am joined by yogi Alix Montes (@alixmontes) to talk about yoga for black men.

We discuss celebrity yoga enthusiasts like Lebron & Ace Hood, why black men view yoga as a "white woman thing," and why Alix thinks the yoga studio is like the barber shop for white people. Listen and give us your opinion!
