  • Kate Churchill is a filmmaker and a dedicated yoga practitioner who insists that yoga can transform anyone. She decides to prove it. Her plan: select a subject, immerse him in yoga and follow him until he finds a yoga practice that transforms him.

    Intrigued by the opportunity to peek behind the curtain of a 5.7 billion dollar “spiritual” industry, Nick signs on to investigate yoga for 6 months. As Nick searches for concrete facts and discards the lofty spiritual theories of his yoga teachers, he strays further from Kate’s original plan. They circle the globe talking to mystics, gurus, mad men and saints searching for the true meaning of yoga. Ultimately, both Nick and Kate end up in places they never could have imagined. They don’t find the answers to their questions, they find much more.

    Enlighten Up

    I thought the movie was interesting. I am a yoga instructor and yoga is such a part of my life. I was disappointed that the movie did not end the way that I had wanted to. Recognizing that, I accept it for what it is. I did not enter or even recognize the spiritual phase of yoga until almost a year after I started practicing. I think it would be difficult to become enlightened in a short period of time, with a camera taping your every move.
