The Funny Thing About Yoga Podcast: Flipping the Script on Props with Jenny Clise

🎧 Listen Here

This week, Giana and Bradshaw sit down with Jenny Clise, a San Francisco yoga teacher and author of The Complete Guide to Yoga Props. They dive into everything from moving and settling into new cities, finding community, and managing studios to carving out your niche wherever you are.

You’ll hear fun “get-to-know-you” stories from Jenny’s time teaching in New York (including her favorite class with septuagenarians) to stepping into a San Francisco class formerly led by a beloved Bhakti teacher, only to disappoint students when they discovered she couldn’t sing.

The conversation then turns to pandemic-era shifts that sparked growth, including Jenny’s pursuit of yoga therapy training and the creativity that led to her block-based eBook, which eventually became a full book deal! She shares insights into the process: researching prop uses, mapping it out, getting friends to demo poses, and weaving together years of experience into a valuable resource.

They also explore using props in fun, approachable ways, flipping the script so props are not just “modifications” but can be both supportive and deepening.

The episode wraps with lighthearted stories of frantic moments before restorative classes, chaotic retreat travel, and COVID-era travel challenges. Jenny is full of wisdom, warmth, and humor: you don’t want to miss this one!
