Bradshaw and Giana kick things off with Bradshaw’s questionable French accent (and a history tangent that somehow lands on Mussolini), plus a lighthearted detour into their celebrity crushes. But behind the laughs lies something big: the announcement of their upcoming 300-Hour Teacher Training and the central role of community in the program.
They dive into what sets this training apart: personal mentorship, meaningful community building, and a hybrid model designed to fit the realities of working teachers’ lives. From accessibility and multiple learning styles to the transformative power of connection in the yoga world, they explain how this program was thoughtfully crafted from the ground up.
Throughout the episode, Giana and Bradshaw reflect on their own training journeys- the moments they felt unseen, the challenges of navigating a sometimes competitive yoga world, and how mentorship and authentic connection can redefine a teacher’s path. They share how the pandemic strengthened their partnership, how engaging with community beyond your home studio fosters collaboration, and why connection- through classes, retreats, and even their Patreon “funny fam” remains at the heart of everything they do.
As always, the conversation weaves between heartfelt reflection, hilarious stories, and a few surprises, including a secret about early-bird registration that you won’t want to miss.
