Description

We are often so concerned with the physicalities of movement in our sessions, however, part of our role as movement teachers can be to create awareness of what is happening on the inside of the minds of our students. In this episode, we explore that inner critical voice, or inner monologue, that many of us have experienced. We talk about what to do about it, the impact it may have on movement, and how we can identify when it’s happening to our students. Our conversation steers toward the two different cycles of inner self-talk and their manifestations, and Hannah sheds light on different tips to support someone undergoing this experience. We hope that the content of today’s episode sparks new ideas of thinking about what our students are experiencing during a Pilates or movement session. Don’t miss out on this conversation, start listening now!
