Simple adjustments. All the difference.

Here are a few common yoga postures and effective ways to change your cueing to create a more body-positive yoga class. Not a yoga teacher? Try these versions in your next practice to see if any of them make a difference for you.

Practicing yoga at the wall can provide support, stability, and an opportunity to enhance your practice. Any blank wall can be used to amplify sensations, isolate specific muscles, and take your practice up a notch.

Because no, you can't scream at them to just try the freaking blocks.

I encourage students in every class I teach to explore and take the time to play with props because I know just how transformative they can be for their practice. But it can be tricky to get students past the notion that blocks are unnecessary or hard to use. Or that using them means you’re doing something incorrectly or taking an easy way out.
