Episode 16 (NL): Waarom zoveel yogaleerkrachten hun stem overbelasten — met stem- en presentatiecoach Charlotte Goris

In deze aflevering gaan we in gesprek met Charlotte Goris, stem- en presentatiecoach en auteur van het boek Zeg dat wel, [https://www.borgerhoff-lamberigts.be/owl-press/shop/boeken/zeg-dat-wel] over een vaak onderschatte maar essentiële tool van elke yogaleerkracht: de stem. Charlotte vertelt hoe ze vanuit logopedie haar weg vond naar stem- en presentatiecoaching en legt uit waarom zoveel beroepssprekers — waaronder yogadocenten — stemklachten ontwikkelen. Je ontdekt onder andere: • waarom luid spreken niet hetzelfde is als een dragende stem  • hoe toonhoogte, spanning en ademhaling je stem beïnvloeden  • waarom articulatie, mondruimte en buiksteun belangrijk zijn tijdens het lesgeven  • hoe kortere zinnen en bewust ademen helpen om je stem te sparen  • welke alarmsignalen je beter niet negeert, zoals heesheid en stemvermoeidheid  • én praktische tips rond stemopwarming, herstel en dagelijkse stemverzorging — van liptrils en Lax Vox tot slaap, stemrust en hydratatie. Een praktische en verhelderende aflevering voor yogaleerkrachten, facilitators en iedereen die professioneel met zijn of haar stem werkt. Meer info?

Episode 15: Finding the divine in life’s hardest moments — with Annette Wieland

In this episode of The Flow Foundry, I sit down with Annette Wieland, a yoga teacher whose journey into the practice wasn’t born from curiosity, but from necessity. At 26, in the middle of a demanding life, Annette was diagnosed with cancer. What followed wasn’t just a physical healing process, but a complete transformation of how she related to her body, her mind, and her life. Through yoga, nutrition, and deep inner work, she began to rebuild herself. Slowly, consciously, and with intention. This conversation is an invitation to look beyond the asana practice and explore what yoga can truly become when life asks more from you. We talk about: *  Navigating sickness and the early signs we often ignore  *  Yoga as a tool for healing: physically, mentally, emotionally  *  The reality of being a full-time teacher and a mother  *  Letting go of perfection in your practice and teaching  *  Finding spirituality not just in the mind, but in the body  This episode is raw, honest, and deeply human, a reminder that sometimes, our greatest challenges become our greatest teachers.

Episode 14: Creating Community and Connection Through Yoga with Kim De Becker

What does it really take to stay devoted to teaching yoga for over a decade, while juggling a full-time career, creative ambitions, and life’s constant evolution? In this episode of The Flow Foundry, we sit down with Kim De Becker, a yoga teacher whose 10-year journey is anything but linear. From stepping onto the mat at just 14 through contemporary dance, to exploring a wide range of trainings from vinyasa in Antwerp to yin in Portugal, pregnancy yoga, and Awakening Yoga, Kim has continuously shaped her own unique way of teaching. But what makes her story truly compelling isn’t just what she’s learned, it’s how she teaches. Rather than rigidly following sequences, Kim embraces fluidity. She leaves space in her classes to respond to the energy in the room, crafting experiences that feel alive, rhythmic, and intentional. Her approach? Keep it simple, anchor it in a clear message, and let real life be the inspiration. We dive into: *  How she found her voice as a teacher (and why it took time)  *  The tension between authenticity and social media  *  Why 'community' is at the heart of her practice  *  And her vision for helping other teachers through future workshops  We also get a glimpse of what’s coming next, including the Antwerp Yoga Festival celebrating ADM's fifth anniversary.

Episode 13 (NL): Het belang en de verrijking van trauma-sensitief lesgeven met Saskia Haudenhuyse

In deze aflevering van The Flow Foundry praten we met Saskia Haudenhuyse over het belang en de verrijking van trauma-sensitief lesgeven. Vanuit haar expertise als gecertificeerd TRE® provider en trauma-informed teacher, deelt ze hoe een trauma-bewuste benadering yogadocenten kan ondersteunen in het creëren van veilige, inclusieve en gedragen lessen. We verkennen wat trauma-sensitief lesgeven in de praktijk betekent en hoe kleine, bewuste keuzes in taal, suggesties van poses en begeleiding een groot verschil kunnen maken voor de ervaring van je studenten. Saskia deelt daarbij praktische tips en concrete inzichten die je meteen kan toepassen, en laat zien hoe deze manier van werken je lesgeven net kan verdiepen en verrijken, zonder dat het beperkend hoeft te zijn. Deze aflevering is waardevol voor elke yogadocent die zijn of haar lessen wil verdiepen, bewuster wil omgaan met veiligheid in de groep en yoga wil aanbieden op een manier die zowel fysiek als mentaal ondersteunend is. 👉 Contacteer of volg Saskia [https://www.instagram.com/klubkalm/?hl=en] 👉 Neem een kijkje op Klub Kalm [https://klubkalm.be/contact] Give us feedback on this episode [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2462846/fan_mail/new] 🦋 Follow The Flow Foundry on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/theflowfoundry/] ✨ GIMMY vitamines - 10% Discount link [https://gimmyvitamins.com?sca_ref=9560587.iDO3Fe8s0aL]

Episode 12: A Lifetime of Human Experiences That Shaped “Warrior Flow” with International Yoga Teacher Lewis McNairy

In this episode of The Flow Foundry, we sit down with Lewis McNairy, international yoga teacher, fitness and life coach, and the founder of Warrior Flow. Lewis shares the human experiences that shaped his unique approach to movement, teaching, and leadership. We explore how his background in the military, combined with yoga, dance, and music, led to the creation of a practice that goes far beyond physical strength. Lewis speaks candidly about resilience, navigating life’s challenges, and the importance of staying joyful, real, and embodied as a teacher. Together, we dive into what it truly means to guide rather than instruct, from teaching with clear intention and mindful adjustments, to cultivating community and presence on and off the mat. This conversation is honest, grounded, and deeply inspiring, offering valuable insights for both new and experienced yoga teachers who want to teach from lived experience, not performance. 👉 Follow Lewis in Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/lewis_mcnairy_fitness/] Give us feedback on this episode [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2462846/fan_mail/new] 🦋 Follow The Flow Foundry on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/theflowfoundry/] ✨ GIMMY vitamines - 10% Discount link [https://gimmyvitamins.com?sca_ref=9560587.iDO3Fe8s0aL]
