Flowin' with Cohen!


This weekend in ATT (advanced teacher training) we had a guest teacher. The beautiful Lisa Cohen came to Inner Vision Yoga to guest teach a master workshop called "Being in the Flow".

Lisa taught us about creative sequencing, fun music, incorporating a theme or metaphor into your teaching and above all~ don't forget to be JOYOUS and have a sense of humor!
* Here are a few more teaching tips from Lisa:
~ Teach what you know!
~Create a Theme or idea for each class have a message you want to convey, something they can take with them into the world.
~Find your voice (not someone else's). It is okay to borrow someone else's words, but messages that ring true to you will stick with you and seem more genuine.
~Be joyous! Rejoice! Ujayyi-victorious, try not to take it all too seriously.
~Being scared is a waste of time! Feel the fear and do it anyway (on or off the mat).
Namaste~Andrea
