I’m thrilled to have movement teacher and educator Trina Altman @trinaaltman on the podcast today. I’ve known Trina for years and have learned from her as a student, a teacher and a coach. She is one of the most brilliant and gifted teachers I know.

Right away we’re diving into our mutual dislike of cooking and how we’ve found a way to work with that and create a happy, sustainable relationship with food.

Then we follow it up with so much good conversation around:

⭐️How the way you grow up with food and how your family eats can have a major impact on how you use and connect with food as an adult.

⭐️Trina’s candid discussion of her background with childhood sports and cheerleading and how that impacted her body image

⭐️What its like to teach Pilates and work in the fitness business and not focus on aesthetics.

⭐️Trina’s own struggles around certain foods like chocolate and the progress she’s made towards a more sustainable relationship with it

⭐️The key difference between strength training and Pilates and why it matters

⭐️How to figure out what kind of exercise is right for you when it seems like nothing fits

@breathedanceroll and I met in September of 2010 right after Farzad and I moved to Los Angeles.

She and her family moved to Portland several years ago but would come back to visit LA regularly before the pandemic.

I truly have a new appreciation for travel and spending time in person with loved ones these days. Love you Tiffany! ❤️🤗🥰

Vacation time!

This is our first time visiting the Oregon coast and it’s beautiful 😍

We stopped at
@matchacafemaikopdx in Portland on our way to Cannon Beach 🏖. It was sooo good… definitely go there if you’re a matcha lover ❤️.

Once we arrived at the hotel we took a long walk on the beach and explored the tide pools around Haystack Rock.

I touched a beautiful green anemone for the first time and made friends with a crab or two🦀.

After sunset we ate lots of seafood @driftwoodcannonbeach. The oyster shooters & homemade sourdough bread 🥖 were delicious! 😋.

P.S. Did you know that Haystack Rock was formed by lava flows emanating from the Blue Mountains and Columbia basin about 15-16 million years ago?

Me neither…I only knew that it was in the opening scene of the Goonies ;-)

Since so many people have lots of “feelings” about Boat Pose, I wrote an article about how to make it easier.

Spoiler alert…you’ll have to challenge yourself;)

I learned the “Salsa Halos” from my dear friend @laurelbeversdorf :-).

They are soooo much fun! If you like Kettlebell Halos you’ll LOVE the banded version 🙌

After watching both documentaries about Britney, I can definitely relate to this! I’m also celebrating AND kneeing Jamie in the face! Thank you @thefitnessmarshall ❤️🙌

We present, for your viewing pleasure, possibly the best reaction to yesterday’s news that Britney Spears’ father has been suspended from her conservatorship. Happy Friday everyone, let’s keep this energy going into the weekend. Like fitness instructor Caleb said, “Oh, this is a good day!”

Hey everyone!

I wanted to let you know about a FREE live class that I’ll be teaching through @yogajournal over ZOOM Tuesday September 28 at 12 pm EST / 9 am PST.

This flow class is a creative, playful yoga practice, which builds strength, mobility, and stability using a yoga block.

It includes spiral based movements to strengthen the upper body, deep core, and inner thighs.

Experience the yoga block in entirely new ways where it becomes more than a prop to modify poses and is used to increase muscle engagement and body awareness through preparatory movements that build up to a multitude of side plank variations.

For this particular class there will NOT be a replay, so if you want to join, it will need to be live.

Anyone else been listening to the Missing Richard

Anyone else been listening to the Missing Richard Simmons podcast? Dan Taberski did a great job chronicling what’s gone down since February 15, 2014 when Richard disappeared.

Speaking of fitness gurus…we had so much fun celebrating @katheagberglar ‘s birthday with a #richardsimmons themed party at the park (slide left for photos).

Kat of course had the best costume, @kylevonrebarf rocked the #onewheel and @ohthatsjustwhatineeded won the prize for the best birthday dance.💃🏽

We had #sweatintotheoldies on YouTube playing in the background while noshing on all the best @sidecardoughnuts flavors.

My favorite flavor is maple bacon 🥓.

It’s times like these that remind me of the “lemonade” parts of this pandemic.

Instead of just meeting up at a restaurant, we celebrated outside, sitting in the grass.

TLDR: I highly recommend planning a Richard Simmons themed bday party of your own in a park 🌈🎉🎂:).

There’s many things that we learn within the yoga space, but like all modalities it has its movement blind spots.

This is why I created my Yoga Deconstructed® workshops to help you quickly and easily fill in the blanks and I’m teaching 2 of them this fall!

These workshops are for you, if you’ve wanted to learn more about how to apply concepts, including:

☑️ Creating segmental rotation.

☑️ Using rotation to improve balance and stability.

☑️ Accessing rotation through cross body patterning (crawling and gait).

☑️ Connecting the upper and lower extremities to your pelvis in a coordinated and functional way to address low back discomfort.

I don’t teach these workshops very often, so I am excited to share that they’ll be available to take live in-person in Los Angeles @yoga_house AND online October 16 through 17.

Following the workshops, you'll receive a link to the recording for 15 days, so you can take them as many times as you want!

The early bird deadline is September 17th, so sign up before then to save some $$.
