Today I’m joined by Deb Flashenberg, Founder and Director of the Prenatal Yoga Teacher in NYC. As you could imagine from someone with 20 years experience in the business, Deb has a lot of wisdom to share and our conversation ranges wonderfully from why every serious Yoga teacher should own a pelvis (in addition to the one that comes with most bodies), why we need to stick to high quality training, how things have changed in New York City (and beyond) over the years and more.
