At @stillnessandmovementstudio, we teach with primarily verbal cues. ⁠
⁠
We believe we can offer the most help to our students if we can actually see them, so this means we teach with primarily verbal cues, and we do very little physical demonstration. ⁠
⁠
We believe this way of teaching helps students drop deeper into presence, and is another way our teaching reflects our values. ⁠
⁠
With limited physical demonstration, the focus moves away from the aesthetics of a shape and towards the experience of the practice. In our view, this is much more important. ⁠
⁠
We are also able to adjust our own cueing, language, and sequencing when we can clearly see how it is landing with our students. We adjust ourselves so we can meet our students where they are and give them what they need.⁠

If you have questions about our teaching or feedback, please comment below!⁠

In teaching yoga and asana we end up working with

In teaching yoga and asana we end up working with bodies quite a lot. Many, if not most, of our students will likely be dealing with some kind of discomfort, whether it be the aches and pains of modern living, or full-blown, diagnosed injuries. ⁠
⁠
As yoga teachers, it is entirely out of our scope to diagnose or treat pain or injuries. Full stop. I do, however, think we should be educated and thoughtful about working with bodies in a way that allows our students’ yoga practice to be supportive, sometimes even in highly specific, physical ways.⁠
⁠
I have studied massive amounts about anatomy, biomechanics, injuries and therapeutics, and have also worked through many very serious injuries in my own body. Because of this history, I love helping fellow yoga teachers brainstorm ways to best support their students who have pain or injuries and this episode is dedicated entirely to your questions! ⁠
⁠
In this episode, you’ll hear questions and discussions about:⁠
•adductor and pelvic pain⁠
•SI joint pain⁠
•nerve pain in the glutes⁠
•elbow pain⁠
•discomfort in the QL⁠
•burning hip discomfort in hip flexion⁠
•shoulder pain in overhead flexion⁠
•imposter syndrome when talking to healthcare providers⁠
⁠
Give it a listen and let me know what injury or anatomy questions I could answer for you on an upcoming episode!⁠
