The Yoga Skeptics Podcast

In Episode 13 of the Yoga Skeptics podcast, Kat and Jen talk about all things injuries. From getting injured in yoga class (yep, it happens) to whether you should attend class when you're hurt, they've got lots to say as always.

In Episode 12, Jen and Kat bring on their first guest: Kevin Moore of Reembody! They chat about his background, biomechanics, how he got involved with the yoga world, and his upcoming Seattle workshop on Pain-Free Yoga.

Join Kat Selvocki of Flat Mat Yoga and Jen Mullholand of Jen Mulholland Yoga as they talk about their favorite topic: BUTTS. Learn how to find your butt, why you need a strong butt, how to use your butt in yoga, and why pigeon prep isn't doing what you think it is. Butts, butts, butts.

In Episode 9 of The Yoga Skeptics Podcast, Kat Selvocki of Flat Mat Yoga and Jen Mullholand of Jen Mullholand Yoga talk food in the yoga world. From why so many yoga teachers and practitioners and vegetarian or vegan, to juice cleanses, to ayurveda, to their love of carbs (even though Jen's doing Whole 30 right now), they talk about it all. This episode's probably going to make you hungry.

Have you ever wondered what (not) to wear to yoga class? What happens if you got stuck in traffic and show up five minutes late, but you REALLY want to come to yoga? What if you have cold feet and want to wear socks? And what the hell does "keep it on your mat" mean? In Episode 8, Kat Selvocki of Flat Mat Yoga and Jen Mullholand of Jen Mullholand Yoga answer all of these yoga etiquette questions--and oh yeah, they also talk about cell phones. (Hint: don't answer them during class.)

In Episode 7 of The Yoga Skeptics Podcast, Kat Selvocki of Flat Mat Yoga and Jen Mullholand of Jen Mullholand Yoga talk about one of the most frequent class requests: hip openers! Jen and Kat cover all things hips: wtf hip opening even means, why "open" is the vaguest term ever, the benefits and challenges of "open" hips, and why it's super important to strengthen and not just stretch. Plus, Kat has a lot of feelings about one-footed king pigeon pose and needs to rant about it!

In Episode 6 of The Yoga Skeptics Podcast, Kat Selvocki of Flat Mat Yoga and Jen Mullholand of Jen Mullholand Yoga jam about what their personal practice looks like; how they balance practice, teaching, and the rest of life; and how you might start to figure out incorporating yoga practice into your life more regularly.

In the fifth episode of The Yoga Skeptics Podcast, Kat Selvocki of Flat Mat Yoga and Jen Mullholand of Jen Mullholand Yoga chat about the question that everyone keeps asking: "Am I doing it right?" The answer: It depends! Tune in and learn more about why there isn't a right way, why none of us are going to look like BKS Iyengar in yoga postures, and why overthinking it is out and imperfection is the new black.

In the fourth episode of The Yoga Skeptics Podcast, Kat Selvocki of Flat Mat Yoga and Jen Mullholand of Jen Mullholand Yoga talk about the concepts of non-greed and non-attachment in yoga, what those might actually look like for us in the 21st century, and why trying to win your row in yoga class maybe isn't the best approach to practice.

In the third episode of The Yoga Skeptics Podcast, Kat Selvocki of Flat Mat Yoga and Jen Mullholand of Jen Mullholand Yoga muse about the styles of yoga they've tried, the varied physical yoga practices and what differentiates them, and how to find a good teacher--who is good for YOU.

In the second episode of The Yoga Skeptics Podcast, Kat Selvocki of Flat Mat Yoga and Jen Mullholand of Jen Mullholand Yoga dish about how they started practicing yoga, studio yoga vs gym yoga, how to practice as an athlete, making yoga more than just a workout, and how they feel about anyone who uses the words "the true yoga."

In the first episode of The Yoga Skeptics Podcast, Kat Selvocki of Flat Mat Yoga and Jen Mullholand of Jen Mullholand Yoga introduce themselves, talk about what "yoga skeptics" means to them, and riff on what yoga is--traditionally and currently--and why they think it's awesome for roller derby skater, Crossfitters, other athletes, and, well, everyone.
