A yoga teacher we know shared something recently. She said she's been teaching her vinyasa practice for 20 years, and has made so much progress with poses. But her joints hurt, her health isn't great, and she's discovered that she can't get up a hill. Really, she can't do much of anything with her body. Except poses. And now, after so many years of pushing people to follow her in something she says caused harm not help, she's telling everyone to follow her into high intensity workouts, because this will be so much better. - There are some issues here,…

There's a question that comes up almost always around week two of our 200+Hour Ready-to-Lead Training: "All this de-stressing and finding ease in my life is so wonderful. Do I need anything else for my health, for my everything, aside from yoga and tai chi? Should I drop running, quit the gym, and change my job?"

Upon approaching a safe distance, it's impossible not to be zapped into Hannah Thomas magical world of space making, cosmically creative thinking, and extremely positive life affirming physicality.

For this and many reasons, namely she is just plain rad, I am honored to have a little conversation and share…
