  Jay's story is a true testament to the value yoga appears to have brought into his life. I am sure that working as a yoga teacher will have given him insight into values which have changed his life. Good luck in your new career Bodhisattva Jay. G.L.

  Huge fan of the guys in ring abilities! All time favorite wrestler. Fascinating to hear he's such a god guy outside the ring as well.
