The Connected Yoga Teacher Podcast is a place where yoga teachers can tune in each week to learn, connect with community and gain inspiration. After a yoga teacher training it can feel like being left out in the wilderness for yoga teacher entrepreneurs. The business side of yoga is often not talked about as much as philosophy, anatomy and other topics covered in a yoga teacher training.
This podcast addresses the questions and challenges that yoga teachers face. Hear interviews with yoga teachers and other professionals on a variety of topics.
Join yoga studio owner, yoga teacher, yoga therapist, and yoga non-profit founder Rebecca Sebastian for a water cooler discussion of what it is to work in the yoga world.
We will talk about our experiences, good & bad, connect with each other, share tips freely, and tell our stories.
Many years ago a yoga-teacher friend of mine said to me “the one thing I don’t like about being a yoga teacher is there’s no water cooler”. And he was right. (thanks James).
So let’s use this podcast as our water cooler. This past year, especially, has been so hard for us. Let’s talk about it. Share our stories, our unique jobs, and a sense of community that we all need.
Want in? Take a listen.
As your host, I’m dedicated to bringing interesting and inspiring yoga teachers to your ears. I’ve sought out yoga teachers who have been successful in the yoga industry to help teach you about the business of yoga; the possibilities of being a yoga teacher, the realities of being a yoga teacher + the awesomeness of being a yoga teacher.
The Yoga Teacher Resource Podcast is one of the most listened to yoga podcasts for a reason: episodes focus on clear, relevant and actionable advice just for yoga teachers.
Join Mado as she interviews world class teachers, up and coming innovators, and unsung heroes about our shared passion: changing the world one yoga class at a time.
