All Mats Taken | A Yoga Teachers Podcast

Could you accidentally be harming or risking harm to your yoga students? If you're using any of these seven common yoga anatomy cues, you might be!

I was as surprised as you might be by some of them because they're widespread and used across the yoga, dance and fitness industries but the science behind them doesn't add up for these anatomy cues to apply to everyone.

In this episode, we'll cover 7 common yoga cues frequently used, figure out where they came from and why they became so highly used, decipher the actual science behind them to reveal why they're myths and shouldn't be used and what to do instead.

The good news is that what you should do instead is usually easier and always safer so removing these 7 cues from your lingo will make teaching even easier!

Most people know Yoga Nidra as a relaxation tool that helps you fall asleep. But according to renowned yoga therapist and author Indu Arora, we've been missing the most important word in the practice... yoga. In this deeply illuminating conversation, Indu unpacks the true philosophy of Yoga Nidra, tracing it from ancient Vedic and Tantric texts all the way to the modern technique we practice today and we discuss why the difference matters more than you think.

In this episode you'll learn:

• Why Yoga Nidra is a state of consciousness, not just a relaxation technique. And what the ancient texts actually say about it
• The real reason we fall asleep during Yoga Nidra (and what to do about it)
• How to prepare your body and nervous system before practice to stay present and aware
• Why reading a script is not the same as true transmission and how your personal practice changes everything
• The many pathways to Yoga Nidra beyond the Pancha Koshas, including through the three bodies, the five pranas, and more
• What "frequency following response" means and why the state you are in shapes the experience of every student in the room
• Why Indu believes we are "settling for fractions" of what Yoga Nidra can truly offer

Whether you're a seasoned practitioner or a yoga teacher looking to deepen your transmission, this episode will completely shift the way you approach Yoga Nidra.

About Indu Arora:

Indu Arora is a Yoga and Ayurveda teacher, mentor, and author, based out of the USA. She considers herself a student for a lifetime. Indu has been sharing about Yoga philosophy, Yoga Therapy, and Ayurveda for the last two decades. Her unique gift is making Yoga and Ayurveda a practice, which is equally useful for a beginner as for a sincere seeker who has made Yoga a lifelong journey. She is inspired by and taught under Kriya Yoga, Himalayan Yoga, Kashmir Shiavism, and Sivananda Yoga lineages. She has studied in a traditional Guru-shishya parampara setting.

Her teaching style is rooted in empowering and inspiring students to awaken the inner Guru. Her core philosophy is 'Yoga is a Work-in and not a Work-out'.

If you're a yoga teacher looking to grow your business without spending hours on social media, podcast guesting might be the marketing strategy you've been missing. In this episode, Sam Brake Guia, co-founder of Pod Written and host of Mics to Millions podcast, shares exactly how yoga teachers can leverage podcast guesting to build authority, attract clients and grow their audience. Sam has spent over four years booking yoga teachers on podcasts and he's bringing all of that expertise to this conversation.

In this episode you'll learn:

• Why podcasting is one of the most intimate and high-converting marketing channels for yoga teachers
• How to identify the right podcasts to pitch (and why getting this wrong wastes your time)
• What makes a compelling pitch and the quality vs. quantity mistake most people make
• How to deliver a great guest interview that builds trust without being overly promotional
• What to do after the episode goes live to maximise every appearance
• How long it realistically takes to see results from a podcast guesting strategy
• Why you don't need your own podcast to make this work for your business

If you're a yoga teacher or studio owner looking to grow your business with the power of podcast guesting this episode will give you a clear and actionable roadmap to start using this strategy in your yoga business marketing plan.

**References to last year in the episode refer to 2025 as this was recorded in 2025. I over-batched interview recording, which I discuss in the episode 😅. At the time of publishing the show is 23 months old, not 14 as mentioned here.**

Meet Sam Brake Guia from Podwritten:

Additionally, he hosts Mics to Millions, a podcast where he shares interviews with top-tier hosts, expert insights, and solo episodes aimed at helping health, fitness, and wellness podcast hosts scale and grow their shows.

I've hit 50 episodes of this podcast around the same time I've reached the one-year milestone of teaching and building an in-person yin yoga class post maternity leave from scratch. So to celebrate I'm sharing my honest take on 5 lessons I've learned from the highs and lows in the yoga business and marketing realm this past year. I've also conjured up some deals for you. See below 👇

I'll be sharing:

• Why consistency beats hustle — and why the pressure to grow fast can actually slow everything down. If you've ever felt like you need your class to work right now, this one's for you.
• Which marketing strategies actually filled seats — Facebook groups, Google My Business, event sites, Instagram. I break down what worked, what didn't and why the answer probably makes more sense than you'd expect once you think about where your students actually spend their time.
• How to honestly audit your own marketing — because there's a big difference between "nothing's working" and "I've been holding back somewhere and I know it."
• The website trap — as a website designer, this was a genuinely hard lesson to sit with. A simpler setup that works beats a beautiful one that costs more than your class earns.

If you're a yoga teacher building your own in-person (or online) class, especially if you're doing it independently (not under a studio), this episode this is for you!

Does your yoga marketing plan involve you spending hours every week creating free content and wondering why your classes still aren't filling? In this solo episode, I unpack why the free content model most yoga teachers have been taught has a fundamental flaw in today's algorithm-driven landscape and what marketing strategies I'm leaning towards more in 2026.

We cover:

- Why organic Instagram reach has collapsed for small businesses and what that means for your time

- The real cost of free content marketing (hint: it's not free)

- What the data says about email, word of mouth, and community as marketing channels

- A practical reframe for thinking about paid promotion without selling your soul to Meta

- Three simple things you can do this week that don't require a filming setup

This episode is for yoga teachers who want to optimize or scale their marketing plan in 2026 with clear direction.

Do you find you hit resistance when showing up in your yoga business? In this powerful conversation, photographer Amy Fraser shares how going viral through vulnerability transformed both her business and her relationship with being seen. We explore why showing up authentically isn't just empowering, it's the smartest marketing strategy you can use as a yoga teacher or wellness entrepreneur.

In this episode, we'll explore:

• Why women are conditioned to shrink and how to push back against it
• Amy's story of going viral (1M+ views)
• The confidence paradox: why you must do the scary thing before feeling ready
• How professional photography helps women reclaim parts of themselves
• Practical tips for showing up online when you feel like you have nothing to say
• Setting boundaries while staying vulnerable in your content
• Why your unique story is the one thing no competitor can replicate
• The real difference between a pretty brand photo and an effective one

If you're a yoga teacher, healer, or creative entrepreneur who struggles with visibility, feels resistant to showing up on social media, or wonders if sharing your authentic story is worth the risk. If you've been waiting to feel "ready" before putting yourself out there, this conversation will show you why waiting is costing you connection, clients and confidence.

Meet Amy Fraser:

Amy Fraser is a yoga photographer, web designer and strategist based in the Gold Coast, Australia who helps heart-led business owners create websites that feel as authentic as they are effective. She believes your online presence should be more than just a pretty homepage—it should tell your story, connect with your audience, and naturally guide them to work with you.

Tired of yoga marketing that feels pushy and inauthentic? In this episode, Nyk Danu returns to share her feminine approach to marketing that prioritizes relationships over hustle. If you're a yoga teacher struggling with traditional business tactics that feel "gross" or slimy, this conversation is for you. Nyk reframes common marketing terms from "crushing it" to "overcoming objections" into heart-centered practices that align with your values.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• How to apply feminine energy principles to yoga marketing without sacrificing results
• Why "overcoming objections" is like unwanted advances (and what to do instead)
• The seasonal approach to business that replaces constant hustle with sustainable growth
• How to reframe aggressive marketing "bro" language
• The circular economy mindset that transforms how yoga teachers think about money
• When to use masculine energy in your marketing (and when to lean into the feminine) 

If you're a yoga teacher who wants to grow your business using an anti-hustle marketing approach that feels sustainable and genuine, this episode is for you.

Meet Nyk Danu:

Nyk Danu is a certified Yoga Therapist, Yin Yoga Teacher Trainer, Yoga business mentor, and host of A Yin Yoga podcast. Nyk lives in the magical city of Victoria on the enchanted Vancouver Island off the west coast of Canada she teaches Therapeutic Yoga to MisFits. Gen Xers (and sometimes Y) who don't feel at home in mainstream Yoga circles: the rebels, underdogs, introverts, neurodiverse, geeks, and bookworms.

Nyk has been practicing Yoga since 1998 and teaching since 2004. She has well over 2000 hours of Yoga Teacher Training, including 500 hours with Paul Grilley and an 800-hour  Yoga Therapy certification. Her passion for Yin Yoga sparked a deep resonance and curiosity for Traditional Chinese Medicine. This then drew her to study 2300 hours of Traditional Chinese Medicine at Pacific Rim College.

Nyk has since combined her Yoga Therapy Training, Yin Yoga Training, and Traditional Chinese Medicine knowledge to create a unique Therapeutic Yin Yoga teacher training program that has gotten rave reviews.

Nyk has been helping Yoga teachers flourish in their Yoga Businesses since 2014 both through her one-on-one business mentorship sessions and through her signature group Program: Marketing with Heart
