The Weekly Roundup

Welcome to Spill the Booch—the Studio Cult TV show where we spill tea (and sometimes kombucha) on the funniest, weirdest, and most WTF moments from the yoga and wellness world.

In this episode:

A yoga teacher handled a “butt-staring” complaint with compassion — and somehow still became the villain. Suddenly, everyone’s debating who’s out of line: the student, the teacher, or the boss who banned a man from sitting in the back row.

The Booch crew pulls no punches as they unpack weird behavior in wellness spaces, what “safety” really means, and why everyone suddenly has a hot take on nipples. It’s one part Reddit rabbit hole, one part business therapy, and all parts unfiltered honesty.

Come for the drama, stay for the perspective — and maybe a laugh-snort or two. Press play to spill the booch with us.

Spill the Booch - Ep. 17: Policy or Power Trip? Where clarity ends and ego begins.

Welcome to Spill the Booch—the Studio Cult TV show where we spill tea (and sometimes kombucha) on the funniest, weirdest, and most WTF moments from the yoga and wellness world.

In this episode:

When a student shows up on time but still gets roasted in front of the whole class, the Booch Crew asks the real questions: Where’s the line between “studio policy” and straight-up power trip?

Mara and the booch crew unpack this viral Reddit story about a teacher who locked the door, chewed out a student, and then doubled down on the shame — twice.

From punctuality paranoia to Bikram flashbacks, the crew dives into the culture of yoga discipline, public shaming, and why some teachers act like they’re guarding the gates of enlightenment.

And of course, things get unhinged with a round of Yoga Mad Libs, featuring Buddha statues, shining hearts, and a little too much toe talk.

If you’ve ever sprinted to class with your mat in hand or been publicly scolded mid–Down Dog, this one’s for you.

Welcome to the YC Weekly Roundup - a show hosted by The Yogapreneur Collective coaches.

Today's episode is the Josh and Terri Show — and they’re coming in hot with a deep dive on one of the most misunderstood topics in the yoga and wellness industry: what actually makes a good teacher. From dissecting “teacher’s teachers” and the illusion of rockstar instructors to using hard data (like retention rates and class fill percentages) to reveal the truth, they pull no punches. Expect spicy takes on ego, performance teaching, inclusivity vs. intensity, and why “teaching scared” might be killing your studio’s growth. Whether you’re an owner, a teacher, or somewhere in between — this episode will change the way you think about your product.

Welcome to Spill the Booch—the Studio Cult TV show where we spill tea (and sometimes kombucha) on the funniest, weirdest, and most WTF moments from the yoga and wellness world.

In this episode:

This week on Spill the Booch, we’re getting hot — not from the yoga, but from the rage of people who “didn’t read the fine print.”

When one new mom tried to cancel her membership the day before her billing date and got hit with a $160 fee, Reddit didn’t coddle her — they roasted her harder than a Bikram class in July.

Mara, Terri, and Carol sip the booch and unpack why 30-day cancellation policies aren’t scams, they’re… adulting. From “I didn’t know it auto-renewed!” to “Can you just make an exception for me?” — the crew dives into the eternal studio struggle of boundaries vs. customer meltdowns.

Expect chaotic honesty, business-owner real talk, and enough passive-aggressive policy talk to make your front desk saintly.

Then, we cool it off with a rapid-fire game testing everyone’s tolerance for shady student behavior — because nothing says “zen” like a little petty revenge fantasy.

It’s studio drama, fine-print karma, and just the right dose of “you signed it, sweetie.”

Welcome to the YC Weekly Roundup - a show hosted by The Yogapreneur Collective coaches.

Black Friday is right around the corner—and every studio owner is asking the same thing: should we do a sale? In this week’s Weekly Roundup, Josh, Bridget, Terri, and Carol dive deep into the strategy (and psychology) behind Black Friday and holiday promotions. From why some studios skip sales entirely to how others pull six-figure results without tanking their memberships, this conversation will make you rethink how you sell. They unpack smart segmentation, “Easter egg” offers, and why “if you win on price, you’ll lose on price” should be your new business mantra. Whether you love a deal or hate the hype, this episode will help you sell smarter—not cheaper.

Welcome to the YC Weekly Roundup - a show hosted by The Yogapreneur Collective coaches.

It’s the rookie takeover! Bridget and Marija—the newest YC coaches and current studio owners—go solo for the first time in this refreshingly honest conversation about what it really means to do hard things. They unpack the difference between hard and difficult, how instant gratification is sabotaging studio growth, and why consistency (not comfort) creates results. From the yoga mat to your business strategy, this episode is all about discipline, coaching, and the magic that happens when you just keep showing up.

Welcome to Spill the Booch—the Studio Cult TV show where we spill tea (and sometimes kombucha) on the funniest, weirdest, and most WTF moments from the yoga and wellness world.

In this episode:

When one mid-class sip in a 105° hot yoga room set TikTok ablaze and a teacher lost her job, we asked the bigger question: where’s the line between tradition and control? Mara and the Booch crew dive into the NYT story, then go way beyond it—into studio culture, teacher communication, and why “party time” rules without context blow up into PR nightmares.

We wrap things up on a lighter note with a fun game and a few spicy hypotheticals to test your studio’s vibe. It’s equal parts sweaty, smart, and unhinged—in true Spill the Booch fashion. Grab your booch and get ready to laugh, gasp, and rethink everything you thought you knew about hot yoga.

Welcome to the YC Weekly Roundup - a show hosted by The Yogapreneur Collective coaches.

In this week’s Roundup, Bridget, Josh, and Carol take a ride from Teslas to Tadasana to unpack how cultural shifts ripple through the yoga and wellness world. From the decline of 90-minute Bikram and traditional Mysore practices to the surge of hot Pilates, the crew explores the eternal studio-owner dilemma: what people want versus what you believe they need. Along the way, they dig into schedule design, pricing logic, and how to know when it’s time to adapt—or risk becoming obsolete. It’s part strategy session, part reality check, and part spaceship joyride.

Welcome to Spill the Booch—the Studio Cult TV show where we spill tea (and sometimes kombucha) on the funniest, weirdest, and most WTF moments from the yoga and wellness world.

In this episode:

What’s scarier than holding chair pose? Apparently, yoga itself—at least according to one therapist who warned her client about “opening demonic doors.” We’re not making this up.

This episode, the Booch crew takes on the myth that stretching summons Satan, unpacks why boundaries in therapy (and studios) actually matter, and plays a dangerously hilarious game of Preacher or Pranayama. Sermon or savasana? You decide.

It’s witty, weird, and a little too real—exactly how we like it.
