Yoga flow should feel like a dance, not just a series of poses. Grace is what makes the difference.

I define grace as the combination of strength and ease in movement. In this conversation, we explore the concept of building grace into your practice and classes and I offer some practices to help you and your students find more attuned and pleasurable flow. 

We also talk Flow School and Studio B as spaces to more deeply explore these ideas and practices. Join me there!

The words we choose matter. They can enhance the learning experience or they can distract and leave some people in the dark. 

How can we use language that inspires and connects us with our students and that helps them better connect with and explore their bodies and minds?

Today we talk about some ways to incorporate anatomical terms and movement science into classes in ways that feel accessible and engaging.

Living according to traditional manuals and social rules can bring certain kinds of comfort and stability and it can also limit us. 

To break free from more rote kinds of living is to re-story ourselves, and that takes curiosity and courage. 

Today we explore how to find and embody more of our authenticity and impact as humans, teachers, and leaders.

Finding your audience, your confidence, and your voice as a yoga teacher is a process. It means a whole lot of learning--how to lead a room, how to sequence well, how to trust the practice and ourselves, and so much more. And it means doing a lot of stuff wrong so we can learn to do stuff right. 

Today we're gonna talk about how to begin.

When we talk about what it means to "engage" in yoga class, what do we actually mean? Do our students understand? How do we want them to be moving? 

And is engagement something we should all be teaching? 

Today, we explore the concept of engagement and the nuances of teaching it, including the importance of the language we choose, the assumptions we make, and some of the influences of our personal experiences and learning on our teaching and cueing.

Change is inevitable in life and so is death. Of relationships, loved ones, dreams, versions of ourselves. Today I reflect on some of what I've been navigating the last several months and share some of what I've been learning along the way--about letting go, holding grief and joy together, and the urgency of living.  

As my friend Joy Sullivan writes in one of her poems, "There's only time to leap."
