The Flow Artists Podcast by Garden of Yoga episodes

  • Karina Smith
    In this episode we catch up with Karina Smith. Karina is a teacher of Yoga (especially Yin Yoga), and meditation, and an educator and mentor to Yoga Teacher Trainees at Australian Yoga Academy (including myself).
    In this podcast we learn about Karina’s path to yoga, from growing up in country Victoria to escaping to the big city. She discusses how her background in dance has affected her approach to yoga. We talk about the soundscapes she creates for her classes.
    Karina has gained a lot of anatomical knowledge over the years, and we talk about how her understanding of the field has changed, especially following her recent studies with Bernie Clark. We also briefly touch on the somewhat esoteric signposts that lead towards her studying and more recently practicing Chinese Medicine.

  • Eugenie Knox Pt 2
    Welcome back for the second and final part of our chat with Eugenie Knox. We find out what happened at the grand opening of Dance of Life Studio on Smith Street in Fitzroy and the sad ending to the chapter of Rainbow the Clown.
    Eugenie tells us about how she learned of Amma, and became a lifelong devotee. We also will hear about Yogafest Retreat, and why you should come along!
    She also talks briefly about the process of writing her memoirs.
    Stay till the end where you get to hear my terrible rendition of the Lokah peace chant, and then finally our picks of the week!

  • Eugenie Knox Pt 1
    This is the first part of a two part discussion with Eugenie Knox. Eugenie was born in Melbourne in 1942 and has always been a dynamic figure, using dance and movement from a very young age.
    She began Dance of Life dance and yoga studio in the late 70s, and has been teaching for longer than I’ve been alive! She has written multiple books on yoga and her own memoirs.
    Eugenie is a dedicated devotee of Amma.
    In this episode we discuss her early life and how tragic circumstances lead to her opening her own dance studio at the incredibly young age of 12!
    We’ll learn what she and the wider Australian community thought about yoga back in the heady days of the 70s and 80s, and we will also learn about the life changing experience that made her decide to fully engage in practicing and teaching yoga.
    Enjoy, and look out for Part 2!

  • I'm a Yoga Teacher, Now What?
    For our first episode, we decided to start out with a chat between Jo and myself. The premise being that I am starting out as a new yoga teacher, and Jo offering advice, given her many years of experience in this profession.
    We discuss issues that might affect new teachers, such as the following:
    Legal Requirements.
    How might I get work?
    How many classes should I teach?
    Should I quit my day job?
    How much should I be getting paid?
    The pros and cons of teaching at different kinds of locations.
    Social media and building a website.
    Should I be running courses?
    How many trainings do I need?
    The importance of being on time.
    We cover a lot of ground in this podcast, and a lot of topics we cover could be episodes in their own right. If you would like us to drill into a particular topic, please let us know!
