Los Angeles: Mudra Moments Podcast
Urban yoga teachers looking for comradery and community need only to tune into Hillary Rubin and Elsie Escobar’s bimonthly podcast, Mudra Moments. The two Anusara teachers, who met as students at City Yoga, have teamed up to share how the choices they make on and off the mat enhance their practice.
The podcasts are filled with entertaining girl chat and advice about things like, how do you practice saucha (and deal with smelly students), the challenges that arise when you substitute teach, tips about how to gracefully lead a class when you’re having a bad day, and the delicate etiquette required when a student cries during class.
These two are also super media happy. You can subscribe to the podcast on iTunes, trace their coming and going on Twitter, download their podcast yoga classes, and join their Mudra Moments community on Facebook. Of course, they both have websites and blogs too.
And they love your comments and welcome your questions. So help them keep the dialog going.

Miss Hillary Rubin is great. It's so nice to have a fellow Anusara teacher embrace technology to reach out to people sitting at desk jobs all day long who need a little break into a "Mudra Moment." I'm happy to see Yoga Journal give props to Hillary and Elsie.

I am soooooo honored to have y'all write about Mudra Moments! It's been such an enormous blessing to work with Hillary and I'm so thankful to have her in my life. It's also been incredible to share this podcast with the yoga community, as they have responded so readily and beautifully.
Stacie, you did an amazing job at capturing what we are building and the way in which we are doing it.
I'm a huge advocate for new media and technology and only hope that the yogic community can embrace it and use to their own advantage!
Such appreciation, such greatfulness :) See you all at Mudra Moments!
