Students remember how you make them feel
Students might not remember what you taught them but they sure as hell will remember how you made them feel
SEEN. HEARD. EMPOWERED. HAPPY. CHALLENGED. FIERCE. FUN. RESPECTED. INCLUDED. INSPIRED. BEAUTIFUL. SEXY. UNCONDITIONALLY LOVED. FREE. STRONG. MOBILE. UNSTOPPABLE. ENLIGHTENED. ENCOURAGED. SAFE SPACE
Chime in if you have any other words to add.
This is so true. I mean thank god I'm recording videos on here so ya'll CAN remember! lol
Yoga, pole, and aerial arts is so much more than being able to nail a pose or a combination. In fact its not about that at all. It's about how can you tell your own story through your own movement practice. The body keeps the score and will tell someone a lot about how you live your life.
This art is even more of an expression of that. How can you make it your own? What are your strengths? what are your weaknesses? Its a therapy session with your body to uncover who it is that you are. You can take a pole sit and extrapolate TF out of it. Make up a weird movement nobody (that you know of) has ever done. Can you get lost in the SAUCE?
Well you need a safe space to even be able to start this exploration. It's my responsibility to humanity to offer this place for people to do exactly this. Dont get me wrong my students are definitely learning poses and combinations we dont mess around. BUT they will hopefully take away so much more than this.
Pay it forward- Share the art. Spread the love.
