Today I'm joined by Tiffany Dawn Chambers-Goldberg, an erotic embodiment practitioner and the creator of Dance Brave, a somatic movement practice for women who want to love their body, feel more confident, and erase pain.
In this fascinating conversation, we explore the intricate relationships between our nervous system, pleasure, and creativity, and how erotic embodiment helps women to reintegrate sensuality into their lives while supporting healing, self-acceptance, and freedom.

Today I'm joined by Kerry Mandaluk, a speech language pathologist and professor, for a unique conversation weaving storytelling and science.
We go deep on all things voice, breath, speech, and leadership. We geek out on the anatomy and physiology of speech production, how our voices relate to our identities, emotional expression, and impact as teachers, and why we may want to consciously train and direct our voices.

Yoga flow should feel like a dance, not just a series of poses. Grace is what makes the difference.
I define grace as the combination of strength and ease in movement. In this conversation, we explore the concept of building grace into your practice and classes and I offer some practices to help you and your students find more attuned and pleasurable flow.
We also talk Flow School and Studio B as spaces to more deeply explore these ideas and practices. Join me there!

Living according to traditional manuals and social rules can bring certain kinds of comfort and stability and it can also limit us.
To break free from more rote kinds of living is to re-story ourselves, and that takes curiosity and courage.
Today we explore how to find and embody more of our authenticity and impact as humans, teachers, and leaders.

Finding your audience, your confidence, and your voice as a yoga teacher is a process. It means a whole lot of learning--how to lead a room, how to sequence well, how to trust the practice and ourselves, and so much more. And it means doing a lot of stuff wrong so we can learn to do stuff right.
Today we're gonna talk about how to begin.

When we talk about what it means to "engage" in yoga class, what do we actually mean? Do our students understand? How do we want them to be moving?
And is engagement something we should all be teaching?
Today, we explore the concept of engagement and the nuances of teaching it, including the importance of the language we choose, the assumptions we make, and some of the influences of our personal experiences and learning on our teaching and cueing.

Change is inevitable in life and so is death. Of relationships, loved ones, dreams, versions of ourselves. Today I reflect on some of what I've been navigating the last several months and share some of what I've been learning along the way--about letting go, holding grief and joy together, and the urgency of living.
As my friend Joy Sullivan writes in one of her poems, "There's only time to leap."

The nature of yoga practice and teaching are always evolving, shaped by innovation, personal expression, and diversity. But as teachers we can face challenges when introducing new methods in our classes and studios. And it can feel hard to find our unique voice and approach and to stay grounded in them.
This is why I love Flow School, and why so many teachers do too: it's a way to find both groundedness and freedom as a teacher. Flow School is where I teach my approach to flow design that centers on a peak flow experience, involves lots of repetition and movement science, and that encourages and supports a teacher's unique creativity.
Today we explore some of the flow design components and I also share some exciting changes to online Flow School to make it more accessible and impactful for teachers.

Recently I gathered together in my hometown with my dad and siblings , and we went through my mom's things. It's been six months since she passed and it was time. It was a beautiful and intimate weekend and it reminded me of our impermanence, and the importance of paying attention to our lives, to do what lights us up, and the need to create a life filled with beauty and meaning.
