Ashtanga Remix; Asmita, Identity, & the I-Am-Ness w/ MaKenzie Fly

Creative vs. Intentional Sequencing (And How Foreshadowing Fixes It) w/ Charlotte Muller

Have you ever perused your IG feed for a creative sequence, taught it to your students, and then immediately regretted it? You and me both!  Today's guest, Charlotte Muller, joins me to talk about intentional sequencing. We dive into her concept of foreshadowing—the art of introducing ideas, movements, and transitions early so students feel prepared, confident, and connected throughout the entire class experience. In this episode, we chat about: ✨ Why students can feel when a class was thoughtfully planned 🌀 The sequencing technique Charlotte uses in every single class she teaches 💡 How a tiny preview early in class can create major "aha!" moments later 🎯 Why intentional sequencing creates trust between teacher and student 🧘 How philosophy, theming, and sequencing can work together instead of competing for attention 🤰 How pregnancy completely changed Charlotte's relationship with movement, cueing, and teaching   Whether you're a newer teacher trying to plan better classes or a seasoned teacher looking to refine your craft, this conversation will help you think differently about how classes are built—and why the smallest moments often create the biggest impact.

Ashtanga Remix; Emotional Mastery w/ MaKenzie Fly

Try Inspired Flow Weekly for free! [https://inspiredflowmonthly.com/] This energizing Ashtanga Remix practice is heavily inspired by the second series of Ashtanga Yoga, featuring spine-strengthening postures, heart-opening backbends, and opportunities to build both strength and mobility throughout the body. The sequence was intentionally designed to complement this week's theme of emotional mastery. Backbends are known for being stimulating, invigorating, and sometimes even uncomfortable, making them the perfect laboratory for practicing steadiness in the midst of intensity. Rather than reacting to every sensation, you'll be invited to stay present, breathe deeply, and cultivate a sense of calm within the experience. By the end of class, you can expect to feel energized, uplifted, empowered, and more capable of maintaining your center when life turns up the volume. Enjoy!

Looping in Yoga Sequencing, Hyper-Mobility, & SkinnyTok w/ Olive Walton

Have you ever heard of looping in yoga sequencing? Today’s guest, Olive Walton, does a deep dive on looping: a teaching style that combines repetition, autonomy, mobility, strength, and freedom inside the yoga room. But this conversation goes far beyond sequencing—we also explore hypermobility, body awareness, identity, beauty standards, nervous system regulation, and what it means to move through the world as a yoga teacher right now.
