Editorial Reviews

"I have often said that the ability to theme a yoga class is one of the key characteristics of teaching with authenticity and significance. Michelle Berman Marchildon gives us a straightforward, no nonsense, no dogma approach to finding your voice and niche in teaching. If you're looking to cultivate presence, confidence and a strong student base as a yoga teacher, this book is a must!" --Amy Ippoliti, author of The Art and Business of Teaching Yoga.

"I recommend this book wholeheartedly to yoga teachers everywhere who want down-to-earth, practical guidance for creating and delivering meaningful and authentic themes in their classes. With her characteristic wit, insight and intelligence, Michelle guides new and experienced teachers through the sometimes-challenging terrain of bringing virtue to life through asana." --Christina Sell, author of My Body is a Temple and Yoga from the Inside Out.

"Become a theme machine! This book will help you deliver themes that roar instead of bore! In her dharma dead serious and hatha hilarious style, Michelle Marchildon insists that we as yoga teachers embrace the pragmatic and shun the enigmatic. If you don't want to read this book for you, read it for your students!" --Darren Rhodes, author of Yoga Resource and Yoga Resource eBook
