Ep.60 – Posture is neither good nor bad!

Today’s episode is the first in a 4-part series of mini-teaching clinics, where I’ll explore an aspect of yoga teaching.

Today is posture, why there is no such thing as good or bad posture, or ‘correct’ alignment.  How using such terms can actually feed into our students’ stories about their bodies, and their beliefs, and remember our beliefs inform our actions!

What do we mean by posture?  

What is the alignment we are guiding our students to?

It is their own unique posture, their own unique expression of their anatomy!  Now I won’t lie, this isn’t easy, but it is possible, and I use Tadasana as a classic example of how too many verbal cues and instructions actually get in the way of our body’s ability to self-regulate.

A successful yoga business is one where you can teach with confidence and run your business with ease, and with 14-plus years as a yoga teacher, I can help you do both!  Check out all the ways we can work together.
