Episode Description:

In part two of this special Spring Day Retreat series, Jamie and Bobbi are joined by members of the teaching team for a conversation centered around teaching styles, personal growth, and the power of community.

They dive into how different approaches to yoga can support students in unique ways, why retreats create space for deeper connection, and how personal wellness evolves through different seasons of life.

This episode is a reminder that there's no one "right" way to practice—just the way that meets you where you are.
