Laurel here 👋 This week on the pod I got to speak to fellow multidisciplinary movement teacher, Rosalyn Mayse aka @RoztheDiva.

Roz shared her story about how she went from always being picked last in gym class to building a successful career as both a personal triner and a pole dance instructor in New York City.

We discussed the often exclusionary industries both pole dancing and strength training occupy.

Here’s more of what we discussed:

The different yet complementary fitness cultures of pole-dancing and strength-training.

The positive impression it made on Roz when she got to see female athletes that looked like her.

The benefits of an artistic focus in a movement practice.

How pole dancing helped Roz overcome guilt and shame about her body and exercise agency, self-exploration, and self-expression.

The fact that people in bigger bodies have to be stronger to overcome more body weight than slender people.

How Roz defines the term athlete. Spoiler: more broadly than the mainstream.

How Roz connects with clients who are skeptical about exercise after negative mainstream exercise experiences.

What the general public thinks pole-dancing and strength training are vs reality.

We got you! It’s Episode 15 of the Movement Logi

We got you! It’s Episode 15 of the Movement Logic podcast, and this week, @sarahcourtdpt discusses the lima beans of learning: research.
🤓
But guess what? Reading research doesn’t have to feel like your brain in a washing machine on spin cycle, and the more you understand it, the more interesting it becomes.
😍
Cos here’s the thing: if you’re gonna quote research, you gotta make sure it’s the goods.
🤩
How to know? Give this ep a listen, and it will help you tell the difference between a good study and a bad one (remember that one about getting up from the floor without using your hands? And everyone went nuts for it? Sorry to break it to you, but it’s a pretty poor-quality study).
🤯
Here’s what you’re going to know once you listen:

➡️Three easy rules to follow for quoting research

➡️Why we get so excited about some studies - and why we need to pump the brakes

➡️How to know the quality - and thus the value - of the research you are reading

➡️Why it’s important that movement teachers quote research responsibly

➡️What can and does go wrong when studies are not good quality

🎧🎧🎧 We’re on Apple Podcasts! And Spotify! And the other ones! And there’s video on our website if you’d rather watch me talk to myself in a closet!

Laurel here! 👋 Episode 14 of the Movement Logic

Laurel here! 👋 Episode 14 of the Movement Logic podcast is all about burnout. This is something that happens to many yoga and movement teachers. @sarahcourtdpt and I discuss some of the reasons why.

Specifically:

🫥what burnout is

🫥 how we avoid it

🫥what we do when it happens

🫥why we see so much of it in the yoga and movement world

We ask:

🫡 Does everyone experience burnout in the same way?

🫡What does it mean to be emotionally labile?

🫡Why do so many yoga and movement teachers go through burnout?

🫡Can a teacher in a big expensive city make a living on group classes?

🫡How do we create boundaries that keep us from trying to ‘solve’ our students’ problems?

🫡What’s the best kind of relationship to have with your students?

We share:

💡 Some practical tips to prioritize yourself and preserve your own time

💡What Work Smarter, Not Harder actually looks like

It can be uncomfortable to look back at how we use

It can be uncomfortable to look back at how we used to teach, especially once we’ve gathered a little more knowledge as teachers, and realize we might have inadvertently been a little too evangelistic in our approach to alignment.

But here’s the thing – if we aren’t even a little cringey about how we used to teach, I’d wager we haven’t learned or grown enough. Ask any of the Movement Logic crew, we all have plenty of stories to tell about our own teaching histories.

So if you want to keep growing, we’ve got plenty of resources for you.

Not only that - ALL of the Movement Logic Tutorials are on sale!
