In this episode, Mark explores how Yoga can provide a sense of unity and belonging amidst conflict and division in the world today. He emphasizes that Yoga is not about seeking or trying to get somewhere, but recognizing the wholeness already present. Mark argues that religious seeking and ideas of separation are the root of much conflict, and Yoga helps dissolve this illusion. He shares principles from Krishnamacharya on adapting Yoga to each person's needs, as well as the tantric view of life's inherent unity. The discussion aims to encourage teaching Yoga as an antidote to trauma, tribalism and disconnection. They discuss: - Why Yoga is needed as an antidote to the division and conflict pervading society and the news cycle - Krishnamacharya's emphasis on Yoga as embracing 'what is' rather than seeking some future state - How religious doctrine has been used to create division, but true religion needs Yoga as its practical means - The end of spiritual seeking and ideas of a perfect future state - wholeness is already here - The tantric, non-dual view of life as an interconnected unity - Adapting Yoga to each person's body, age, health and cultural background - Teaching Yoga as a stand against trauma and disconnection in the world Favorite phrases: "The yogas of participation in the given reality." "Your body is in a profound unity with the total cosmos." "Yoga is the practical means by which individuals actualize the great ideals of their culture, of their religion." "Trying to come into union implies the two are separate." "Your body is the extraordinary intelligence that is the cosmos happening as you."

What if you need to pause teaching yoga for a while because of other priorities in your life? Are you still a yoga teacher? I very much think so. Who you are is not a sum of what you do, but a choice in how you see yourself. Tune in today to learn how you can still identify as a yoga teacher, even if you're not actively teaching yoga at the moment.

I'm Cha Wilde, and I want to share an experiment I've been working on. I've been integrating Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy into my yoga teaching. IFS is a psychotherapy model that has evolved into a psycho-spiritual approach. I've found that practicing yoga before doing IFS parts work helps me cultivate self-energy and makes it easier to connect with my inner parts. In my sessions, I aim to teach a short 15-minute yoga class that incorporates IFS principles. This allows students to connect with the present moment and their inner parts through yoga. During the class, I'll tap into my own active parts and speak from or for those parts as a live demonstration for students. It's been a transformative experience, and I'm excited to share it with you. ♥ JOIN MY ONLINE STUDIO for additional content: chawilde.com/studio-membership --------------- PLAY BY PLAY: Introduction: I'm excited to share an experiment with you where I'll be teaching yoga that incorporates Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy. I've been practicing IFS for four years now and am training to become an IFS coach. IFS is a psychotherapy model that has evolved into a psycho-spiritual approach, and I'm eager to blend it with our yoga practice. 00:01:14 -- Integrating IFS with Yoga In my own experience, doing yoga before IFS parts work has been incredibly effective for cultivating self-energy and connecting with my inner parts more easily. My goal is to bring together my background in yoga and art with IFS to offer something meaningful to the world. 00:03:17 Teaching Approach I'll be teaching short, 15-minute yoga classes, designed to help you connect with the present moment and your inner parts within this brief timeframe. While it's a challenge to keep the classes concise yet deep, I believe we can achieve a lot in these sessions. 00:04:57 Live Demonstration During our class, I'll be tapping into my own active parts and speaking from or for those parts as a live demonstration. I invite you to follow along and observe as the experiment unfolds.

The Connected Yoga Teacher Podcast 374: Teaching Yoga to Busy Parents with Naomi Gottlieb-Miller Description: How can busy parents find time for yoga in the midst of all the things they are juggling? How can yoga teachers make yoga more accessible to parents who are facing time scarcity? Naomi Gottlieb-Miller shares how her yoga practice changed when she became a parent and how she now uses this knowledge to share yoga with other parents. Naomi is a mover, a maker, and a mom of 3 kids. She has been teaching yoga and movement since 2005 and is known for classes that are creative, playful, and strong. Naomi specializes in teaching short classes that pack a punch, making sure you can easily squeeze your daily movement into whatever pockets in your day you happen to have. On her website, Naomi offers classes that are 5 to 30 minutes to ensure busy parents (and anyone else short of time) can incorporate movement into their day, no matter what. Naomi opens up about how her yoga practice changed drastically when she became a parent, and how that inspired her to teach much shorter classes online which can be just as good or even better than longer yoga classes! She shares how she has found success in her yoga business offering shorter classes, and highlights the importance of removing barriers that keep people from coming to yoga. Shannon and Naomi also discuss how we don't all have the same amount of time, the high expectations we put on ourselves as parents and as yoga teachers, the double standards society sometimes puts on parents, and more. Whether you are a parent who struggles to find time for your movement practice on top of your hectic schedule or you work with parents who tell you they don't have time for yoga, this is a great episode.

Quotes from this episode: "Whatever I am doing for myself to move is good. It does not have to be 60 minutes or 30 minutes or even 10 minutes. It can be really short. And if that makes my body feel good, that is enough." "Another thing that can be so hard actually, is that if our expectations for our practice are really high, ...we're never going to get anything done." "Why are we putting value judgments on the length of time?" "Your home practice does not need to look like the classes that you teach. Your home practice should look like what you need." "We just need to reframe what we think is necessary for both home practice and what we teach." "Motivation is fickle." "We want to assign so much more power to yoga and to movement because we want things to be miracle fixes." "I don't necessarily think that a 15-minute practice means that you're rushing things."
Before we get to the interview, a message from Anne:‘Hosting this podcast and interviewing all these amazing people has been such an enriching experience, and I had no idea the impact it would have on me and my listeners. With every conversation, I feel changed by my guests' stories. Because it is stories that stay with us, that and how people made us feel.'

It helps make it stand out and will support booking of upcoming guests.'Episode NotesKnown in the yoga world as THE teachers' teacher, Annie Carpenter (@anniecarpentersmartflow) shares her story with Anne, who has been an avid student, first via online platform Glo.com, before attending live Zoom classes and IRL workshops with her in 2022. Annie's journey starts in Virginia, but she tells Anne how she found her path early on with dance, leading her to the Martha Graham company and New York City. From getting a scholarship to working at the junior company and briefly joining the main company, Annie found a calling in what she refers to as authentic self-movement and in teaching at the Martha Graham Center. An introvert, she shares with Anne how yoga became an essential part of her life, thanks to Integral yoga (Swami Satchidananda's school) which felt like a refuge from the competitiveness of the dance world.Annie explains how after a trip to LA and a conversation with her teacher Maty Ezraty, she impulsively relocated to the West Coast and turned to teaching yoga full time, training at Yoga Works under Maty and Lisa Walford. They go on to talk about teaching, about Annie's movement principles and energy, how to create inspiration for students, and why Annie founded her own yoga school, Smart Flow Yoga. Annie also shares why continuing to evolve is essential, as well as learning to let go of preconceived notions. She explains how she has learnt to tap into her students' expectations rather than relying on her own. Now based in Northern California, the teacher, who turned 65 this year, also talks about the stages of life, or ashrams, and she is learning to ‘retire' whatever is not supportive in her practice. Quoting Noam Chomsky, she says: "If you are teaching today what you were teaching five years ago, either your field is dead, or you are.” Annie also reveals her passion for bird-watching, her mindfulness and pranayama practices, and how learning to be still was the doorway to her meditation practice. Finally, she answers the most delicate and profound question of all, one that Annie regularly asks her students: who is Annie? A joyous, profoundly thoughtful and inspiring interview. Enjoy!TakeawaysAnnie Carpenter's journey from dance to yoga and the influence of Martha Graham on her practiceThe importance of finding one's truth and balance in yoga practiceAnnie's development of Smart Flow Yoga and the principles behind itAnnie's role as a teacher's teacher and her experience teaching on Glow Glow Yoga offers a variety of teachers and practices that are both entertaining and beneficial.Teaching yoga via Zoom has its challenges, but it also allows for a more global community.Traveling for yoga teacher trainings can be both rewarding and guilt-inducing due to carbon emissions.Tapping into energy and using inquiry are important aspects of teaching yoga.Somatic movement and meditation can enhance the yoga practice and bring about self-discovery.Yoga philosophy, such as the Yuga Sutras, offers insights into time, space, and the human experience.There is a need for more accessible yoga classes that cater to beginners and focus on functional movement.Birdwatching is a passion of Anne's that connects her with nature and brings her joy.

In this episode, Laurel and Sarah discuss what current science, versus outdated advice and conventional wisdom, have to say about the causes and solutions for sacroiliac joint (SIJ) pain. Learn what research says about whether or not the SIJ is an inherently robust or fragile structure, whether things like lots of stretching in yoga or joint laxity during pregnancy contribute to its instability, and what therapists can and cannot reliably know about the causes of SIJ pain.You will learn: The anatomy and biomechanics of the SIJ. How Sarah differentiates between low back pain and SIJ pain with her patients. What joint incongruency is and what therapists can and cannot know about joints through palpation.

In this third episode in our Becoming an Evidence Informed Yin Teacher or Student, I'll be reviewing some actual papers for you that are not directly about Yin Yoga but instead about an important component of our practice, stretching.

In today's episode I share 3 things I wish I knew a decade ago when it came to teaching a beginner (or any student). You know I think every beginner student is extremely important because there are a lot of yoga teacher training programs that do not get this covered because most of them focus on teaching a student who already has some basic yoga knowledge. Because teaching a beginner requires a nuanced approach and can be challenging. But also very rewarding. It comes down to the caliber of the teacher and the student. So in today's episode, I'm going to share with you three things that I wish I knew when I was teaching beginners that took me a decade to figure out. They are things that I have stuck to time and time again and have definitely been game-changers. Take note that none of them are about poses. In fact, they're what I commonly refer to as invisible yoga when it comes to teaching yoga.Episode Highlights:Focus on how they will learn instead of how you will teachTeach the practice more, not just the poseStop queuing, start communicatingI hope you enjoy this episode and I hope to see you on November 7th in the Teaching Yoga to Beginners Course.Teaching Yoga To Beginners CourseJoin our mailing listFind all the resources mentioned in this episodeConnect with us on Instagram
Ready to level up your Yin Yoga teaching or practice? We're back with part two of our enlightening series, and this time, we're demystifying the process of reading research. In this solo episode, I'll guide you to improve your research literacy, ensuring you can critically evaluate studies and make sure that the research you read is relevant to you or your students. We will also explore ways to ensure that the research you are reading is credible. To demonstrate how and why, we will look at an acclaimed study from a few years back that claimed that just 12 minutes of daily Yoga can reverse osteoporosis. The study was bogus but the damage is done. Many teachers and students have fallen into the trap of crappy research. I'll show you how to know if what you are reading is actually reputable!This series is a guided journey to becoming an evidence-informed Yin Yoga teacher or student.

As the owner of Aham Yoga Studio for 10 years, I have honestly been testing, trying, and failing many times and coming up with a blueprint that now we put on repeat that helps us to move the students in a way where they relate to yoga, they feel successful, and they come back to continue investing in themselves and in their journey with yoga. So I have taken these 10 years of my work and have condensed and packed it into a 30-hour online Teaching Yoga To Beginners Course that is built specifically for you.While there are many aspects to teaching beginners—which we'll explore in-depth in the Teaching Yoga to Beginners course—in today's episode, I want to focus on discussing the yoga sequencing principles for beginners. Yoga sequencing principles largely being asana-oriented. I'm giving you three, out of nine, proven yoga sequencing principles that I have used for beginner's asana classes for a decade successfully.Episode Highlights:Sequencing principle #1: Lay the roadmapSequencing principle #2: Start and end positions matterWhat positions to avoidSequencing principle #3: Know your what-if momentsThe training starts on November 7th, 2023, and enrollments open on October 15th, 2023. It's completely online. It is built for yoga teachers who want to get better teaching, especially a beginner. How you learn matters to me so I've done my best to make it as effective as possible.On October 16th, I'm hosting an information session at 8:30 AM Pacific Time to give you a preview of the content and walk you through the content library where you can also ask your questions.I hope to see you on November 7th in the Teaching Yoga to Beginners Course.

So many of us suffer with hip flexors that feel stiff, tight, sore or even painful. it's not uncommon for me to encounter clients and students that are even plagued with a reduced range of motion and trouble fully extending the hip. So it makes sense to just stretch right? Though it seems plausable that lenghening what feels tight is the best course of action, the hip, the self are far to complicated to reduce this experience to just the state of our biological tissues. So in this practice we will observe the biopsycosocial-spiritual nature of self. Rather than some stretches for the sensitive area, we will activate to release. In your practice, you will engage in myofascial release techniques, mobility drills and yes, yin yoga poses, to embed a profound sense of safety into the hips as well as a new confidence.

In this week's episode, Michael and Paul sit down to discuss two very well known opposites: yin and yang. Not only do they move through qualities and elements that represent yin and yang, but more specifically they dive into yin and yang as it applies to teaching yoga and how you approach your classes. They discuss the Yang as structure, the left brain, the logic or anatomy, controlling the room, respect, among much more. Paul shares examples of requiring students to turn their phones off at the start of class or reprimanding someone who isn't creating a safe environment for them and their neighbors as ways to hold the space with yang energy. Whether or not it is.a yang style practice (power, vinyasa, rocket, etc) there is an importance of using yang qualities to create a sense of respect and safety. On the opposite side, they talk about Yin as holding space, creativity, vulnerability, and sharing authentically from the heart. People need to feel safe in a yin class in order to heal. People need to relax in order to feel vulnerable. Softening the body to allow emotions and feelings to come through. So the way we support students in doing this is by opening our own hearts and sharing from a place of softness and love. Paul shares an anecdote of a student on a recent meditation teacher training who really won over the hearts of her classmates by allowing the class to really see her while guiding. Among many other topics, Michael and Paul also discuss finding advanced trainings that balance out what you need to nurture within you. If your trainings used to be very structured, find one that's very flowy and soft. Study with different types of teachers. They dive into the art of receiving feedback, the importance of taking risks, and what balance really means. 00:00 Introduction 02:16 The Yang of Teaching 04:22 Masculine and Yang Styles 09:00 Structure and Discipline in Class 14:00 The Yin of Teaching 18:35 Your Personal Touch/Uniqueness 20:33 Receiving Feedback 25:00 Being Relaxed and Being Seen 28:00 Taking Risks 29:55 Continued Learning to Nurture New Sides of You 33:20 Balancing Yin and Yang 36:40 Doing Your Own Work --- About Going Pro Yoga: At Going Pro Yoga, we help yoga teachers become even better by teaching them new skills and giving them the tools they need to make their yoga classes safe, fun, and special for everyone. **Right now you can try Going Pro Yoga FREE for 7-days and sample: All Tools Needed to Master Cueing, Sequencing, and Alignment Video Library of over 75 fully Sequenced Classes, Sequence Chunks, and Flows FIRST EVER Yoga Cueing System with Over 160 poses and Hundreds of Variations Wisdom Talks from over 20,000 Hours of Teaching Experience Anatomy and Injury Prevention as it relates to Yoga.

"Once we've worked on and developed that awareness, we then have the capacity to start to regulate what we need to regulate or re-regulate what we need to regulate." "What the evidence shows us is that education alone is actually really helpful." "There's a lot we can do with self management and a lot we can teach people for self management as well."
