is japan the fastest growing yoga nation?

This seems like a nice video...but, I can tell u that the assertion that Japan is the fastest growing yoga nation is based on falsity. I’ve followed this claim to the terminal, as well as interviewed scores of long-standing yoga industry people in Japan. And, while many have said that around 2005 there was a 2nd wave of yoga interest, after the Tokyo subway sarin gas attack in 1995 really put a break on Japan's yoga industry, this factoid that Japan is the fastest growing nation is not true. You can read about how this very claim sparked my curiosity about yoga in Japan here.
