Welcome to Episode 47 of the Movement Logic Podcast—our last episode of season 3!In this episode, Laurel and Sarah reflect on their most cringe stories from the teaching trenches and the big and small lessons they learned from them. You will belly laugh at their mistakes, and also learn vicariously through them!.DISCLAIMER: the language in this episode gets a little salty so you may want to listen when there are no children around.You will learn: That making mistakes is a crucial part of getting better at something, and in fact if you aren’t making mistakes, you probably aren’t learning as much as you could be. Why Laurel dislikes the phrase “in the trenches” to describe teaching weekly classes or privates. Why the only way to learn how to teach skillfully is to teach—and there will (or must be) mistakes! The difference between people who are excellent versus mediocre at something often comes down to how many mistakes they made—people who are excellent at what they do have often made a lot of mistakes and have learned from them! What Sarah’s oopsie taught her about what she was looking for in a studio to teach for, as well as what kind of teacher she actually wanted to be. How the concept of somatic dominance helps both Laurel and Sarah better understand their mistakes in retrospect, and how much the yoga and fitness community has changed (and hopefully continues to change) on a systemic level since. Mistakes often involve multiple different lessons, some of which can be learned immediately, and others that might take years or decades for us to realize. That shame is a normal human emotion, we can experience shame while also not letting it shape our identity and prevent us from learning and growing. The mistake that taught Laurel she was teaching people not poses. How making big mistakes can sometimes fast track really important lessons that might have otherwise taken much longer to learn. How story-telling can transform shame and help you process what happened in a healthy way.Episode 36: Somatic DominanceGet our Free Bone Density Mini Course — OFFER ENDS JULY 9th!Follow us at @movementlogictutorails on Instagram
