Whether you're a yoga teacher or a student, chances are you've heard, or said, something like, “I’m here to guide you through your practice,” or “Thank you for letting me guide you today.” It’s a lovely sentiment, and a good reminder that teaching yoga is more about offering direction than barking o...
