The week before last week, something came through my inbox that made me cringe for about 10 seconds. It was a deal from LivingSocial, the wildly popular site where you can get one wickedly awesome deal daily. The deal was for 20 sessions of Bikram yoga for $20 at a Bikram Yoga studio in Shoreline, [...]

I’ve been giving this post a lot of munching, mulling, and milling. In other words, I’ve been procrastinating. It’s not because I don’t want to write about it, it’s because I keep convincing myself that I don’t have enough: not enough information, not enough well-thought out reasons, not enough cohesive call to action, etc. In [...] After having some conversations this past weekend, I realized that there is a general confusion out there on whether or not yoga classes are taxed in the state of Washington. As far as I know—as of this writing of April 2010—Yoga, Tai Chi, and Qi Gong classes are not taxed, according to Excise Tax Advisory 3003.2009 [...] This is a case study in how a yoga program works, or doesn’t work, in a non traditional yoga setting. A couple things first: + I realize that teaching is a service, any kind of teaching. I called this Yoga as a Service because in the tech world, there’s SaaS, or Software as a Service, where the benefits [...] This morning in my Technorati twitter feed came this post: Three Personality Types that Help Drive Business. I’m not a big fan of the terms the author used. (Last I checked no one enjoyed “the daily grind.” Who wants to be considered a “grinder”?) But the post is so pertinent to what I wrote last night [...] This is another post in the series I call New Yoga Teacher to New Yoga Teacher. It’s written specifically for… well, new yoga teachers, but I think it applies equally to anyone new to owning and operating their yoga business. I came to this realization a couple months into being a brand new yoga teacher, and every [...] In self reflection, I realized that I have developed a few traits over the years, like a certain sense of skepticism and snarkiness, all wrapped in a tongue in cheek live and let live perspective. I’d like to think that I can blame this on the years and years of reading websites like Gawker and [...] The Yoga studio scene in Seattle is seeing some changes as we transition from February to March. + Om Yoga of Redmond is closing its doors after 2 years. Owner Karen Herold is an amazing woman for having a full time executive job, coaching her daughters’ sports teams, and of course, teaching and running a small [...] Comrades, lock your doors, hide your children, The Yoga Arms are here, and they will make you cry. Last month YogaSpy wrote about the yoga arms: In Iyengar yoga, teachers emphasize classic yoga arms: straight but not stiff (including wrists and fingers). If tight shoulders prevent you from raising your arms straight and parallel, in line with [...] |
