Kathy Dodd | Challenging ageism in yoga culture


Listen Later

In this episode, Nikki chats with yoga teacher Kathy Dodd about how ageism shows up in the yoga space and what teachers and students can do to change the narrative.

They discuss:

  • Why we shouldn't assume that gentle is always better as we get older
  • How representation of more diverse ages in teachers and students practicing yoga on social media can make the practice more accessible
  • Some of the hidden benefits of getting older as a woman
  • How to straddle the line between acceptance of the aging process and vanity
  • How to push back against the feeling of invisibility as we age
