Find out how you can fix your cueing problems and feel more confident when you teach. In today’s episode, I share a short term fix that’ll help you share clearer cues right away. I then share a really powerful step you can take (if you’re ready) so you can feel confident AND understand the anatomy behind the cues you’re sharing.

Do you think the way you are right now is set in stone and this is the way you’ll be for the rest of your life? This might mean that if you’re shy or you get nervous when you teach your yoga classes, you might think that’s just the way you are and there’s no changing it. This is called a fixed mindset and it’s one of the things that can trip up a yoga teacher if she wants to feel confident when she teaches. In today’s episode, I’ll share some personal stories about how I overcome this mindset and set off to build a more empowering approach to how I think about myself and how I bring more confidence to teaching. I hope that in our discussion, you’ll discover ways to loosen some of the thoughts you have about yourself that hold you back from being the most confident yoga teacher you can be!

Discover the difference between learning anatomy and applying it to you teaching and why it matters.

Did you ever take a yoga class and the teacher just had iT all together? You loved the class, you admired how she taught, she seemed so confident, knowledgable and inspiring? This is someone who has the IT Factor.. that amazing blend of confidence, skill and authenticity that inspires others and builds connection. YOU have this too! It’s just that no one has shown you how to tap into it. Until now. Listen to this episode and I’ll share more about IT and how you can enroll in my 4-week training that’ll show you how to get IT. The training starts on 3/25/24.

In today’s episode, I share with you a few questions that will give you an idea of IF you understand anatomy and if not, what you can do to fix it.

This episode will give you so much that you can use to improve your mindset, learn new strategies and most importantly, help you feel more empowered.
