Body Positive Yoga Workshops

Body Positive Yoga workshop weekends are some of my favorite dynamic learning experiences. From 2015-2020, I traveled around the United States and Canada presenting my original curriculum.

Frequent topics included: making peace with your body, radical self-acceptance, body image through the lens of the yoga teachings, and personalizing your asana practice for your unique body.

In fall 2017, I went on the road for a whole month, teaching in 13 cities across the midwest United States. Many workshop participants ended up becoming my students, retreat participants, or teacher trainees.

Many weekends were intensives for other yoga teachers. I loved the impact of these sessions, where we learned practical tools for adapting the yoga practice. Most yoga teacher training programs don’t prepare new teachers for working with folks in bigger bodies, older folks, people with disabilities, or brand new beginners. My workshops filled in these knowledge gaps and helped hundreds of teachers find new clients and stand out as a knowledgeable resource for their local yoga community.
