Naturally this leads to a conversation about working through major tangents during their online trainings and holding space for students- a segue to the actual topic of the day, Things Yoga Teachers Do Well. This episode details the skills and qualities they both love to see in a yoga teacher. Though they can agree and disagree at times, they talk about moments of silence, showing up as your authentic self, really seeing your students, using positive cues, fostering autonomy, confidence, critical thinking and the ability to admit when you don’t know something or if something is outside of your scope of practice. Of course they have to share stories about Beyonce, Obama, Giana’s former celebrity client, and a recent absurd and uncomfortable experience at a hot yoga studio. All this before a casual game of Cancel, Explore, Commit and ‘The Funny Thing About Yoga.’ This may be one of the most unhinged episodes yet, but we had a lot of fun recording It.&nbsp;</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p>00:00 Intro</p><p>00:30 Welcome Back Shenanigans&nbsp;</p><p>04:45 Todays Topic: Things That Inspire Us in a Yoga Teacher</p><p>06:32 Allow Room for Silence&nbsp;</p><p>07:50 Cultivating Autonomy&nbsp;</p><p>11:34 Don’t say Don’t&nbsp;</p><p>14:06 Be Authentic&nbsp;</p><p>16:03 Beyonce, Obama and Name Dropping</p><p>18:58 Appropriation and Authenticity</p><p>21:56 Be Confident &amp; Humble - Stay in your Scope</p><p>26:10 Teachers can Hold Space and Refer</p><p>28:02 Yoga Teachers should See their Students</p><p>32:10 Unique and Critical Thinkers</p><p>33:37 Cancel, Explore, Commit</p><p>34:50 The Funny Thing About Yoga</p><p>39:55 Nicaragua Retreat, Join Us!</p><p>40:52 Outro</p><p><br></p><p><br></p><p><strong>Follow Us on Instagram:</strong></p><p>@TheFunnyThingAboutYoga @CayaYogaSchool @GianaGambino @BradshawWish</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Join us in Nicaragua: </strong><a href=\"https://www.cayayogaschool.com/joshuatree\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://www.cayayogaschool.com/nicargua</a>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>Be Featured on the Podcast: </strong><a href=\"https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSck2nTNc_UlcCKBhZId5DmDwoU6aslkFfGKtdz-1uSo-HNY8g/viewform\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSck2nTNc_UlcCKBhZId5DmDwoU6aslkFfGKtdz-1uSo-HNY8g/viewform</a></p><p><strong>Subscribe to our Newsletter:</strong> https://www.cayayogaschool.com/contact</p><p><strong>Follow us on IG: </strong>https://www.instagram.com/thefunnythingaboutyoga/</p><p><strong>Learn more about C.A.Y.A.
