Should Christians Do Yoga? | Ep 13

Is it OK for Christians to do yoga?  Maybe as a teacher you have been asked this question, or maybe you're wondering this for yourself.  We have a treat for you today! We’re having our very 1st guest on the Jesus Coffee Yoga Podcast, our Master Teacher Trainer, Misty Elliott!  She gets to lead our teachers in training to navigate these conversations and answer these questions for themselves. So we thought, who better to lead us through this discussion?! She has walked alongside the holy spirit in navigating these questions and concerns about facing judgment herself. AND, like many of you, she has faced ridicule and backlash for her practice and for choosing to become a yoga teacher. She reminds us in this episode that yoga is not a religion, but a SPIRITUAL DISCIPLINE. And she also reminds us that our decisions can’t come from someone else’s ideas about what we “should” do, but through our own conversations with the Holy Spirit. If you, too, have been faced with this question, or maybe you've just pondered this question yourself, this episode is for you! Join us while we hear some of Misty’s story and discuss some of the common questions and concerns around Christians practicing Yoga. So grab a cup of coffee, pull up a chair, and let's chat.

8 Tips To Turn Your Yoga Classes Into An EXPERIENCE | Ep 12

Do you want to take your classes to the next level?  There are some very simple things you can do to transform your offerings into an experience that keeps your students coming back for more! I’ve been thinking about some of the things I do to create an experience in order to share them with the teachers in my local studio, and I thought I’d also share them with you!  Maya Angelou said, “I've learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel” This quote has stuck with me for a long time, and I build my classes with this in mind!  In this episode we are going to talk about some things I do in my own classes as a teacher, as well as things I enjoy when I’m a student in someone else’s class that make it an enjoyable experience.   So grab a cup of coffee (or other tasty beverage), pull up a chair, and let's chat.

If I had to start all over from scratch, there are definitely some things I would do differently.  Don’t get me wrong…I love where I am today and am really enjoying what I’ve built. But it hasn’t always been easy, and I’ve made a lot of mistakes along the way that have cost me time, money, peace, and joy.   The other day Nick asked me this question: If you had to start over today, is there anything you’d do differently?  It’s a great question, and I gave it a lot of thought so I could share my answers with you! We all make mistakes, and that’s just part of the learning process. But hopefully you can learn from my experience, fast-forward the process, AND potentially avoid some hurdles and pitfalls along the way.  So whether you're just getting started in your teacher practice or you’re feeling stuck and unsure what to do next, my prayer is that you’ll find something in this episode that will help you on your journey.  So grab a cup of coffee, pull up a chair, and let's chat.
