Listen Later

We’re exploring the purpose of props in today’s episode with international yoga teacher, Zain Syed. Zain’s videos on social media have inspired many around the world to explore creative and fun ways to practice yoga poses. With many years of training from senior Iyengar Yoga teachers, as well as studying and learning from his mentor and dear friend, Carrie Owerko, he brings a dynamic blend of power, precision and play into his practice and teaching. Before the pandemic Zain was a traveling teacher and visited over 20+ countries to share practice with diverse communities overseas. 

We explore the role of a prop, how it can assist or hold someone back, vinyasa yoga versus prop based yoga, the role of the yoga student & teacher & more in this conversation. 

At the end of the episode, Zain shares some of his favorite teachers and resources to help yoga teachers elevate their practice & awareness with props.
