The Funny Thing About Yoga

Warrior 1, Reimagined: Our Yoga Journal Debut


Listen Later

In this episode, Giana and Bradshaw are thrilled to announce their brand-new Patreon channel- your backstage pass to classes, deeper dives into postural alignment, behind-the-scenes retreat content and podcast videos, and plenty of random personal tidbits.

They also share some exciting news: they’re officially creating for Yoga Journal! Their debut piece, “Frustrated by Warrior 1? These Are the Cues You Can—and Should—Ignore,” features a video breakdown by Bradshaw and a step-by-step companion article by Giana.

In this episode, they unpack everything about Warrior 1 - alignment of the feet, positioning of the tailbone and spine, what’s happening with the shoulders, where to gaze, and they offer both the traditional cues and modern alternatives for more comfort and ease. With a nuanced approach that honors different body types, they invite you to explore what truly works for you.

And of course, they wrap things up with a laugh: Bradshaw confesses he’s already forgotten a key part of his new job, and Giana recounts a very “Marin” experience at the hottest yoga studio in town, complete with a style wildly different from anything she’s ever seen before.

Thanks for listening, and don’t forget to leave a 5-star review.
