Creating Your Vibe and Other Nonsense

April 10, 2023The Funny Thing About YogaCreating Your Vibe and Other NonsenseEpisode No. 9Giana and Bradshaw kick off this episode by diving straight into their fears. They obviously talk about death, how It relates to yoga, and other big questions plaguing their minds. They don’t claim to have any answers, instead just big minds willing to ask questions, be silly, and explore all aspects of these topics. And somehow, this beginning tangent actually relates to the topic at hand here: Setting a Vibe for your yoga classes. This includes everything you do from the moment you enter the studio, honestly. We talk welcoming students, props, technology, mirrors, before class monologues, incense, cueing, music and so much more. If you’re looking for ideas to help cultivate your vibe, this is the episode for you. It’s not an overnight process and sometimes It takes experimenting with different methods to feel into your authenticity. Ultimately, we hope to shine light on the many details that help make up a teachers vibe andHow you can be mindful of these details when creating an environment. We hope you feel inspired by this episode and share It with your yoga teacher friends!00:00 Intro00:30 Welcome Back Shenanigans 01:10 Whats the Scariest Thing that Could Happen? 2:20 Tell me how Death and Yoga are Related….5:05 Bradshaw Wants to Talk about his Beliefs6:20 Lets Talk About Establishing a Vibe7:13 I’m the Talent8:30 Begin Creating your Vibe From the Moment You Walk into the Studio10:20 Mirrors, Directions, Altars 14:21 Greet People, Prop Instruction, Setting Up16:05 Studio Culture Can Influence Your Vibe18:58 Before Teaching Protocols21:48 Talking A Lot While Teaching 25:45 Think Twice About Using Scents30:10 What Do You Want Your Students to Experience?34:59 Music is a Vibe !39:10 Memory is Tied to Music40:14 To be Silent or Have Music in Savasana?41:33 Teaching in and Practicing in Silence44:43 Be Mindful of the Language You Choose46:17 The Music We Like to Play48:07 Our Playlists are Public49:00 Wrapping Up!50:38 The Funny Thing About Yoga53:52 Early Bird Nicaragua Retreat54:54 Closing Thoughts55:04 OutroFollow Us on Instagram:@TheFunnyThingAboutYoga @CayaYogaSchool @GianaGambino @BradshawWishJoin us in Nicaragua: https://www.cayayogaschool.com/nicargua Be Featured on the Podcast: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSck2nTNc_UlcCKBhZId5DmDwoU6aslkFfGKtdz-1uSo-HNY8g/viewformSubscribe to our Newsletter: https://www.cayayogaschool.com/contactFollow us on IG: https://www.instagram.com/thefunnythingaboutyoga/Learn more about C.A.Y.A.
