Travis Eliot on Resilience, Teaching, and Unexpected Lessons

from The Funny Thing About Yoga

This week, we’re joined by the one and only Travis Eliot—yoga teacher, author, and co-founder of Inner Dimension. He takes us through his journey from near-death experiences to reconnecting with his spirituality, finding gratitude and becoming a globally recognized teacher. We talk about resilience, the power of yoga and mindfulness, and how these practices can transform life on and off the mat.Travis shares his early days as a teamster in the film industry, his first steps into yoga, and memories of his mom teaching him meditation as a kid. We dive into the evolution of yoga trainings, the debate around teaching before training, and how an extra-long Warrior Two finally pushed him to formal study. Plus, we explore different teaching styles, the role of resistance, and the importance of staying a student for life.Of course, there’s plenty of laughter—Travis cracks us up with stories about botched recordings, monks on Hollywood Blvd, and behind-the-scenes yoga mishaps. Expect more funny stories, unexpected lessons, and maybe even a few things Travis didn’t know he’d share.
