Meet Sage Rountree (EP.321)

In today’s episode, you’ll meet Sage Rountree, PhD, E-RYT500, former endurance sports coach and the author of 10 books on yoga, training and teaching. In this episode, Sage and I cover a variety of topics in both the areas of teaching yoga as well as the business of yoga. We even cover some things that are often on the minds of yoga teachers but rarely get discussed; how to set your rates, how to charge what you’re worth and how to move past limiting beliefs that might be holding you back from being the best yoga teacher you can be.

Meet Isabel Tew (EP.320)

We breathe without thinking about it and as yoga teachers, we know that there is an entire practice devoted to the study and practice of the breath. In this episode, meet Isabel Tew, yoga teacher and creator of “Breath Cards,” a wonderful resource for yoga teachers and practitioners alike to learn all about the breath and different techniques you can use. If you’re a yoga teacher, you can easily bring these cards into class to enhance the learning process.

How To Create Anatomy Cues (EP.319)

Discover how to create anatomy cues based on what you know, rather than just repeating cues you’ve heard.

Meet Crissy Florio (EP.318)

I put the call out to my mailing list for yoga teachers with inspiring stories and was thrilled Crissy responded. She’s a long time yoga teacher with a wealth of experience and she also went through the challenge of a breast cancer diagnosis in 2020. In this episode, we talk about how surviving cancer has changed her as a person and as a yoga teacher as well as her approach to teaching. She shares her empowering approach to teaching her students and what she does so that she can be her most confident, authentic self when she teaches her classes.

Yoga Book Review (EP.317)

In this episode, I share a journal exercise you can do to be sure you’re teaching in a way that’s consistent with what you value about teaching yoga. I also share excerpts from Mark Singleton’s book, Yoga Body: The Origins of Modern Posture Practice.”

Meet Kat Fowler (EP.316)

I interviewed Kat on the show before and I wanted to have her back on to talk specifically about energy healing and a specific technique called Akashic Records readings. 

She recently did a session with me and I was amazed at how much of what she said resonated. In this episode, we cover some of the basics of energy readings, talk about what it means to hold space for your students and go into detail about what Akashic records readings are and how you can benefit from one.

Bring Yoga Philosophy Into Class (EP.315)

Learn some easy ways to share yoga philosophy in your classes without feeling overwhelmed.

How To Learn Anatomy: The Science Behind It (EP.314)

Most yoga teachers tell me they believe that learning anatomy is hard. What I’ve always known is that when you learn it in a particular way, step by step, with regular testing of what you’ve learned, it’s much easier and you get better results. 

 

In this episode, I review the science of learning and how you can apply it to learning anatomy. The content comes from the teachings of Dr. Andrew Huberman, as he covers the science of learning in one of his podcast episodes.
