In Episode #18 we discuss yoga studio etiquette. How should we behave in the yoga studio space? What drives us crazy and what do we appreciate? Like many behaviors or expectations that involve common courtesy in how we treat one another or how we behave in shared spaces - a lot of this stuff may seem obvious.

Yet, when we get busy or stressed sometimes we forget that this world is a shared space…so, our hope is that by having an open communication about behavioral expectations in the yoga studio environment, we can remove the stress of the unknown and make it easier for us to be considerate. And bonus, it also makes it much more accessible for new students to join us. 

Specifically in this episode we:
  • Share some of our pet peeves of behavior we have encountered in the yoga studio
  • Explore how we can foster communication to help prevent frustration
  • Acknowledge the necessity of self awareness and that occasionally we MIGHT overreact
  • Recount stories of our experiences from both the teacher and student perspective
Tune in for a conversation that gets a little spicy as we spill the tea on what drives us crazy as yoga teachers. 
 
May your peace be long, may your planks be strong, and may your prana root you in each present moment.
