Yogaland Podcast

There's no doubt that Covid-19 has changed the current landscape of how we practice and teach yoga. On this special episode (recorded live via Zoom with Jason's recent online teacher trainees), Jason and I talk through about the important conversations that will need to happen between studio owners and yoga teachers as things open up. We also talk about how this time of uncertainty calls creates space for creativity. And lastly to my yoga teachers: Please start your own email newsletter. And send it consistently. This is my wish for you. ❤️SHOUT-OUT TO OUR SPONSORSGet your yoga studio in a flow with Acuity Scheduling, the all-in-one scheduling tool for classes and private sessions.

Although they are largely ignored when mainstream media covers yoga, seniors age 65 and older are the fastest growing segment in the United States. Today's guest, Carol Krucoff, has been teaching seniors (and training yoga teachers) for nearly two decades at Duke Integrative Medicine. She's also co-author of the book, Relax into Yoga for Seniors: A Six-Week Program for Strength, Balance, Flexibility, and Pain Relief. I'm a fan of Carol's well-researched yet warm and down-to-earth approach to teaching this population. We talk about how she creates a welcoming, safe environment for seniors, common poses that are contraindicated for conditions like osteoarthritis or heart disease, and what it means to take an integrative approach.⁠⁠PS: Seniors can take FREE classes with Carol right now through Duke University!! The link is on the show notes page. Please pass it on to those who would benefit.⁠Show notes: http://www.jasonyoga.com/podcast/episode194SHOUT-OUT TO OUR SPONSORSStoryworth makes it easy and fun for loved ones to tell their stories.
