We are discussing an intriguing topic today: accessible yoga. I want to know more about it, so I’ve invited Emily Anderson to join me. She’s been a yoga teacher since 2018 and is focusing her work this year on yoga therapy, the application of yogic modalities and philosophies in caring for people based on their unique medical and emotional needs and in collaboration with a person’s medical team. Emily does yoga therapy through her virtual studio, All Bodies Welcome Yoga. She firmly believes that anyone can come through her virtual doors and feel comfortable and welcome, which is not always the case in mainstream, fitness-based yoga studios in the US. Join us to learn more!

Show Highlights:

● Why it is important to Emily to have equity and inclusion in the yoga classroom

● Why common conceptions about yoga are a “tricky blur” between self-help, mind/body connection, and spirituality

● How different yoga positions are beneficial to the body and emotions

● How people feel health shame and sometimes associate movement with pain, punishment, or discipline

● How yoga helps reconnect us to the ways our bodies enjoy movement and give us feedback about sensations

● How Emily works with clients around pushing themselves when things are challenging and empowering themselves with options and autonomy

● Why much teaching around exercise and movement are fear-based

● How Emily conducts virtual yoga classes

● How to look for accessible yoga classes in your community
