Welcome to Season 2 of Working In Yoga.

Each year in the beginning I set intentions about what I am thinking about for the year. What I want to explore, discuss, and unpack.

So here it is, where I am going in 2022. If you want to follow along, hit subscribe and let’s hang.

This week is a solo episode, dedicated to all of those brick-and-mortar business owners out there.  

I had the opportunity to respond to a couple of conversations that happened online in the last couple of weeks regarding yoga b&m business owners.  This made me sit down and really think about my experience of running a public-facing business during a global pandemic.  

How much work was it, really?

What did I learn?

Well, this is episode is the answer to those questions, for me.  And maybe for you too.  

This episode comes right in front of the amazing Pamela Brown who is going to talk on the podcast next Monday all about the GYMS act in the US, and how we can advocate for our yoga studios to get some assistance.  

This week on Working In Yoga we are talking to Aly Paws, a long-time yoga teacher who came into yoga from a lifetime of movement.

Aly was ready for our online shift and shares some of her thoughts on what it means to run good online teacher trainings (a thing I am working on now, so I was thrilled to have this conversation), and how what we do has value. We talk about coming back from the bottom-basement pricing of online teacher trainings in 2020, and how we can move forward valuing ourselves, our traditions, and our services.

Aly is also a self-care master and shares with us two tips for caring for ourselves now and into our brave new future.
