In this weeks episode we're talking about the moment when you've been group hanging with our students for a time and then comes the question, "shall we grab a coffee?" We talk about the giant compliment it is when students move from one type of relationship across to a new type; friend! We also talk about boundaries, not having enough time, feeling the pressure to return the friendliness and the weirdness of para-social relationships.

Sounds brutal, but as much as you might love teaching yoga, it comes with costs that lie outside of the financial. In this episode we talk about the energetic, social, critical and sometimes physical costs of becoming a teacher. Shout out to Calli Popham and J Browns Yoga Talks who we mention in this episode.

This week it's just the two of us, a lot of laughter, and zero agenda. We catch up on our recent day retreat, confess our biggest yoga teacher icks, and call out our own verbal tics and habit words (you know the ones) amongst of course plenty of other rambles. If you've ever caught yourself saying "and just notice" for the tenth time in one class, you'll feel very seen. Grab a cuppa and come hang out. What's taking you to the edge in your Yoga practice ?

Softness isn't the easy option, it might be the bold one. This week we talk about what it really means to teach gentle, slow, restorative and low to the earth yoga in a culture that often equates intensity with value, and why we think softness deserves just as much respect on the mat. We unpick some personal cornerstones of teaching soft and we tie ourselves in knots figuring out, what "soft" yoga even is. What's taking you to the edge in your Yoga practice ?
