Episode 91:  HOW FOOT INJURIES AFFECT A STUDENT'S YOGA EXPERIENCE

The feet are our foundation, yet they can be overlooked when it comes to teaching and sequencing. In this episode, I'll discuss a few foot injuries and conditions, like plantar fasciitis, bunions, arthritis, ankle instability, and stress fractures. And explain how a student with these conditions experiences physical yoga in your classes. Not just the physical challenges, but also the impact on their proprioception, nervous system regulation, and how compensations can ripple throughout their entire body.

As yoga teachers, understanding the role of the feet gives us the tools to adapt our cues, support students in building awareness, and create safe yet empowering practices. 

If you’ve ever wondered how to work with students who have foot injuries (or if you’ve been relying only on modifications and props), this conversation will give you a new perspective along with some practical takeaways that you can remember for your next class. 

Let's get to it...
