Episode 40 - Taking Feedback & Growing as a Yoga Teacher: A Conversation with TKYM Academy Mentor, Alyssa Arroyo

On our journey to becoming extraordinary yoga teachers and spiritual leaders, we often receive feedback and support on how to grow and become better. Whether it be via tests, video uploads, or one-on-one coaching, the ability to take feedback and use it for growth, rather than as an obstacle is critical. Alyssa Arroyo, lead mentor on The Kaivalya Yoga Method Academy online teacher training, shares with us unique ways to grow and change as a spiritual leader — and human! — in the midst of challenge.

In my online teacher training, the Kaivalya Yoga Method Academy, we receive so many questions about how to get past challenges or overcome hurdles, especially when people are submitting tests and receiving feedback. I thought I’d bring on one of my lead mentors, Alyssa Arroyo, who’s been teaching in New York City for over a decade and is a powerhouse of a yoga teacher.

Your yoga practice is not always what happens to you, it’s not what gets handed to you, it’s how you choose to react to what’s handed to you.

You’ll enjoy meeting Alyssa because she has some excellent feedback and suggestions as well as a little game to play to help you get past some of the challenges and obstacles that you encounter in your life, whether you’re a part of our online teacher training or not, this podcast features a ton of information that’s gonna help you thrive.
