  • One of a kind podcast

    Bradshaw and Giana do an amazing job of blending real-world practice tips with humor. They’re knowledgeable, sensitive, and insightful. At the same time, they’re hilarious. I like that there are episodes with interviews of teachers and entrepreneurs and episodes of just Bradshaw and Giana talking honestly about very relevant topics. Great show!

Q&A: Ideal Retreat Size, Recording Class & Getting Over Nerves
Q: How did you overcome your nerves when teaching your first yoga class?
Nerves are normal, and the only way to get past them is through experience and repetition. Confidence builds over time, and it's common to start off feeling unsure in front of a class.
Q&A: Ideal Retreat Size, Recording Class & Getting Over Nerves
Q: Is it fair not to be compensated for a recorded class at a studio?
While it would be nice to be compensated, it's considered part of the agreement in some studios. Asking for details about the recording's usage is advisable, but it might not lead to additional compensation.
Q&A: Ideal Retreat Size, Recording Class & Getting Over Nerves
Q: What is the ideal number of students to bring on a retreat?
If you are running a retreat alone, the ideal maximum is 15, but with a partner, it can be up to 25. However, the best experience may come from keeping the group smaller to facilitate connections.
Q&A: Specific Sequencing Requirements & What To Do About Moaners
Q: What should a teacher do if a student is moaning loudly during class?
The hosts suggest having a private conversation with the student if it becomes a persistent issue while acknowledging that it's important to maintain a comfortable environment for everyone.
Q&A: Specific Sequencing Requirements & What To Do About Moaners
Q: Is the requirement of 12 vinyasas in a 60-minute class helpful or limiting?
The hosts discuss that while 12 vinyasas may seem arbitrary, it can be average for some classes, emphasizing the importance of accessibility and variety for different students.
