Mysore making people unhappy?

I went to have breakfast with Ayalet and Sayana whom I travelled to Mysore from Kovalam with this morning and as we were discussing the "yoga circus" mostly we agreed that Mysore is not a place we would return to (although this may be a little early to judge, perhaps it will grow on me by the time I leave) but I realise how unhappy some people are becoming with Mysore style.

I was reminded not to have expectations here at all, that the main shala is about squeezing as many curious people as possible into a room where everyone's mats are on top of each others', follow the very fast counts of Sharath in the led class or get injured by Saraswati with her harsh adjustments.

I'm happy that I made the choice not to go to the main shala in Kovalam as Guruji wasn't around anyway and that I wanted to get away from busy, crowded atmospheres.
