The root and messaging of, not belonging, can take a swift hold on us - messaging from others/society becomes internalised and part of who we perceive ourselves to be in the world. It took some time for Chelsea to feel a sense of belonging in the yoga world, but as she redefined who she was in the space, along with her teaching, she kicked open doors for others. Chelsea believes this can expand into uniting communities.
Tune into episode 5 of Listen Loudly to hear my conversation with my friend and fellow Peloton yoga instructor Dr. Chelsea Jackson Roberts. Chelsea leans into the basics in her teaching to build solid foundations and a reconnection to self. She is highly regarded as a leader in a new generation of yogis who are striving to expand the idea of who is traditionally thought of as a teacher.
Today, you’ll hear about Chelsea’s journey from elementary school teacher to world renowned yoga instructor. Tune in and hear how her university experience instilled a sense of leadership in her, why she believes in meeting people where they are at, and how her experience with yoga finally made her feel grounded, present, and at ease.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Chelsea originally felt that yoga was inaccessible to her
Chelsea’s comfort with yoga didn’t come overnight
The loss of her best friend completely changed Chelsea’s relationship to yoga
Yoga can be an excellent way to keep your personal battery charged
Yoga was designed for us to understand who we truly are
Chelsea tries to keep her classes and practice accessible to everyone
