Episode 90:  YOGA RULES THAT DON'T HOLD UP

When you finished your 200-hour yoga teacher training, chances are you walked away not just with a certificate but with a list of “rules” about how to teach. Rules about sequencing, alignment, hands-on assists, and even how you’re supposed to show up as a teacher. At the time, those rules might have given you confidence and structure. But the truth is, many of them simply aren't true, are opinion-based, or have been discredited.

In this episode, we take a deep dive into the myths, outdated teaching rules, and misconceptions that still show up in yoga classes today. We’ll explore how sequencing isn’t one-size-fits-all, why alignment should never be rigid, what pain science teaches us about injury and movement, and how to move away from fear-based or authority-driven teaching.

You’ll hear how to question what you were taught, how to keep learning without overwhelm, and how to shift your mindset so you can teach with confidence, flexibility, and compassion.

Let's get to it...
