Asking Eric: Yoga teacher picks on longtime student
Dear Eric: I've been taking yoga classes for at least eight years from a woman who teaches a small group in her yard. I'm friendly with most of the students in the class, but the instructor apparently doesn't like 'the cut of my jib.'
Example: She singled me out in class one time, saying I looked like 'someone's mom in the '70s doing yoga.' For the record, she is in her 50s, and I'm 10 years older. Another example was that she said I looked like a Lily Pulitzer model. I was wearing bright lipstick (never again) and an ordinary top. I innocently asked who Lily Pulitzer was; turns out she thinks I have a 'retro' appearance, but not in a kind way.
