Today, I’m excited to introduce Adam Husler, a dedicated yoga teacher from the UK. I discovered Adam online a couple of years ago and have been inspired by his authentic approach to yoga ever since. In our conversation, Adam shares his unique perspective on teaching yoga, especially for beginners. His insights offer a fresh alternative to the often academic and sequence-focused discussions in modern yoga.
Throughout our conversation, Adam stresses the importance of being genuine in teaching. He discusses how yoga teachers can balance the desire to be liked with the need to stay true to themselves. This honest discussion covers important topics for new teachers, such as what to focus on in the early days, transitioning from confusion to clarity, and the importance of grounding and reflection in one’s practice.
In this episode, we address the common issue of FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) that many teachers experience. We also emphasize the importance of reading and continuous learning, highlighting the idea that growth is an ongoing process. This episode is not only full of practical advice but also serves as a reminder of the significant impact that yoga teachers can have on their students. Join us for this insightful discussion that is sure to inspire and uplift anyone involved in teaching yoga. Whether you’re a new instructor or an experienced teacher, there is a wealth of wisdom to gain from Adam’s experiences.
Drawing from a variety of lives lived off the mat, Adam Husler brings a unique perspective to those who seek more from yoga than making extravagant shapes. He offers creative, effective and clearly-sequenced teachings that focus on balancing flexibility and strength; physically and mentally.
Adam specialises in a signature style of Alignment-Based Vinyasa— fuelled by a fascination with anatomy and a desire to ask ‘why?’ Adam believes that yoga is an ultimately a practice of self enquiry, where we can regulate body, mind and breath through subjective challenge.
Adam has taught classes, workshops and trainings in over 60 studios in over 20 countries, and is the co-creator of the triyoga 200hr hatha-vinyasa training. You can find Adam hosting the Honestly Unbalanced podcast, writing for Yoga Journal and he has featured in; Mens Health, The Guardian, Runners World, Women’s Fitness and many more
