@mado.hesselink had me on her podcast and we went deep down the Somatics rabbit hole. So many people have already said how much they learned from listening. I’ll share the link in my story ⬆️ or simply go to @yoga.teacher.resource .

Incorporate somatics into your yoga classes to offer your students access to deeper relaxation and a better mind/body connection. In this episode @trinaaltman shares the story of how she fell in love with somatic movement and offers advice for yoga teachers who want to incorporate somatic principles into their classes.

Episode Highlights:

✨How somatics can make yoga more accessible for people with persistent pain or hyper/hypomobility

✨The 3 types of somatic movements
The importance of relaxation for better learning

✨Aesthetic cueing vs inquiry based cueing

✨What we can learn from the nervous system and how we can influence it.

I was just interviewed by @francescacervero on The Mentor Sessions Podcast and you can listen anywhere you get your podcasts!

As teachers we know that there’s nothing universal about the way people experience movement.

For example, as much as I love learning and teaching people about regressions and progressions, we need to know that for every modification that could be considered a regression there is an example of the kind of body or situation in which that version is actually a progression and vice versa. ⁠

Understanding why this is the case will help you teach in a way that students feel 100% agency to make autonomous, empowered, educated decisions about their own movement practice which is something that Francesa and I are both super passionate about!

In this episode we talked about:

* what the research shows about why yoga-related injuries are quite common 

* the difference between internal and external cueing and when you might use one rather than the other 

* the nine different factors to consider when regressing or progressing a movement 

* various movement adaptations based on these nine factors and when they would likely be regression and when they are more likely to be a progression 

* what yoga teachers listening can do to integrate these ideas into their teaching 

After you’ve listened to the episode Francesca and I want to hear how it landed with you!

We’d love it if you took a screenshot of the episode and tagged us in your Stories to tell us what your key takeaways are.
