Have you heard of Instagram Reels? Have you heard of TikTok? Both are platforms for sharing short videos about practically anything!

I learned recently that Instagram was really encouraging its users to try Reels. As a small business owner trying to grow her yoga business in a new part of the country, I thought I’d give them a try. What have I learned after posting several Reels?

I LOVE TEACHING PEOPLE HOW TO CUSTOMIZE YOGA POSES FOR THEIR UNIQUE BODIES!

I’ve never been a typical yogi: I didn’t discover yoga until my mid-40s. I’ve never been very flexible. And I deal with various aches and pains on a daily basis. But guess what? I fell in love with yoga! The more classes I took, the more I realized that I just had to share yoga’s goodness with others. From helping to keep my joints mobile to learning calming breathing exercises; from listening to teachers’ soothing guided meditations to working on my balance, I knew so many people that could benefit.

But I wasn’t very interested in reaching the young, thin, bendy crowd. I wanted to share yoga with folks who were like me — and thankfully there are many! I use all the props when I practice, sometimes skip poses entirely, and love brief, guided meditations to help me de-stress.

Are you anything like me? If so, I’d love to share with you the many benefits of yoga. You can check my availability at https://www.schedulicity.com/scheduling/BWJHSG.
