54: 7 Yoga Anatomy Myths Busted | Stop Using These Yoga Cues

Could you accidentally be harming or risking harm to your yoga students? If you're using any of these seven common yoga anatomy cues, you might be!

I was as surprised as you might be by some of them because they're widespread and used across the yoga, dance and fitness industries but the science behind them doesn't add up for these anatomy cues to apply to everyone.

In this episode, we'll cover 7 common yoga cues frequently used, figure out where they came from and why they became so highly used, decipher the actual science behind them to reveal why they're myths and shouldn't be used and what to do instead.

The good news is that what you should do instead is usually easier and always safer so removing these 7 cues from your lingo will make teaching even easier!
