1
00:00:02,759 --> 00:00:04,960
Speaker 1: I think the best thing for this planet could be

2
00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 1: to have a planet full of yogis. Yoga's taught me many, many,

3
00:00:09,560 --> 00:00:12,320
Speaker 1: many lessons. One of the most impactful lessons that I've

4
00:00:12,360 --> 00:00:17,360
Speaker 1: learned from the practice is related to strength and the

5
00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:21,160
Speaker 1: ability to believe in myself. Here's a tortoise pose. Let's

6
00:00:21,200 --> 00:00:24,320
Speaker 1: see how a tortoise feels. And here's lion pose. Let's

7
00:00:24,360 --> 00:00:26,880
Speaker 1: be lions right now. And here's kat and here's cow

8
00:00:27,000 --> 00:00:30,560
Speaker 1: and all of the animals and the animal kingdom. Be strong?

9
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:33,519
Speaker 1: How strong? Strong enough to believe in your dreams?

10
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:39,920
Speaker 2: That is super duper flexible. Yoga teacher Keno McGregor Keino

00:02:43,720 --> 00:02:45,000
Speaker 3: Oh that sounds cool.

39
00:02:45,800 --> 00:02:51,120
Speaker 2: Yeah. Yoga is something you can do anywhere, anytime. You

40
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:54,440
Speaker 2: just need some space for your body to move, so

41
00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:56,280
Speaker 2: you can do things like.

42
00:02:58,000 --> 00:03:05,280
Speaker 3: This pose. Oh wow, you're standing on one leg. You're right, Maxi.

43
00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 3: Emily's like a flamengo. Now yep.

44
00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:12,680
Speaker 2: This is actually called the tree pose because I can

45
00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:17,280
Speaker 2: stand tall and steady like a tree. It's one of

46
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:20,040
Speaker 2: the many things people can do with yoga And.

47
00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,400
Speaker 3: What does yoga have to do with being a tree

48
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:23,520
Speaker 3: or a flamengo?

49
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:27,880
Speaker 2: Eily good question, Luis. You see, yoga is a very

50
00:03:28,160 --> 00:03:33,880
Speaker 2: very old way of stretching and breathing and connecting with nature.

51
00:03:34,440 --> 00:03:36,080
Speaker 2: It's a way of thinking too.

52
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:41,920
Speaker 3: Sounds so mysterious. And who came up with it?

53
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:45,920
Speaker 2: Well, not a single person, but it has been around

54
00:03:45,960 --> 00:03:50,680
Speaker 2: for more than five thousand years, and it originally comes

55
00:03:50,720 --> 00:03:54,320
Speaker 2: from India. Today many people do it all over the world.

56
00:03:54,840 --> 00:03:58,520
Speaker 3: Huh, Oh, you're right. Maxy mom also does yoga at

57
00:03:58,520 --> 00:04:01,400
Speaker 3: home sometimes too. She has her own matt and her

58
00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:02,520
Speaker 3: own comfory clothes.

59
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:05,240
Speaker 2: There you have it, and I'm sure she does it

60
00:04:05,280 --> 00:04:08,160
Speaker 2: because yoga is very good for us grown.

61
00:04:07,960 --> 00:04:09,240
Speaker 3: Ups and for kids too.

62
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:13,880
Speaker 2: It makes our bodies healthy and our minds happy and calm.

63
00:04:14,320 --> 00:04:16,840
Speaker 3: Who teaches people how to do all that?

64
00:04:16,839 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 2: That's the job of yoga teachers like Keno McGregor. She

65
00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:25,360
Speaker 2: leads yoga sessions so that they can all move together,

66
00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:26,599
Speaker 2: breathe together.

67
00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,520
Speaker 3: Oh, it reminds me of dancing. People move together and

68
00:04:30,640 --> 00:04:33,200
Speaker 3: laugh together and breathe together when they dance.

69
00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:37,480
Speaker 2: Yes, that's an excellent point, Louise, Yoga teachers bring people

70
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:42,480
Speaker 2: together through yoga. Louise, it sounds like you are ready

Speaker 2: Yes, they are, Louise. And look there are so many

82
00:05:31,880 --> 00:05:36,120
Speaker 2: people that they put giant screens so everyone can follow

83
00:05:36,160 --> 00:05:38,560
Speaker 2: the yoga teacher who's leading this session.

84
00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:42,080
Speaker 3: But Emily, how can that teacher have so many students?

85
00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:45,479
Speaker 3: My classroom is like twenty people. How many people are

86
00:05:45,520 --> 00:05:46,600

Speaker 3: Seems everyone loves it here.

90
00:05:57,160 --> 00:06:00,760
Speaker 2: You're right, Louise. You see, yoga is so so important

91
00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:04,440
Speaker 2: for Indian culture. It's been a way of feeling connected

92
00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:10,000
Speaker 2: to nature for thousands of years. So International Yoga Day

93
00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:12,160
Speaker 2: is super special over here.

94
00:06:12,440 --> 00:06:14,920
Speaker 3: You have to join the others, Emily. Let's do it.

95
00:06:15,400 --> 00:06:20,080
Speaker 2: And look, Luis, everyone's doing one pose at the same time.

96
00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,400
Speaker 2: I think it's upward facing dog.

97
00:06:23,680 --> 00:06:28,239
Speaker 3: Wait, there's a dog post. Did you hear that? Maxi too?

98
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:34,880
Speaker 2: Actually upward facing and downward facing, like a dog facing

99
00:06:34,960 --> 00:06:38,240
Speaker 2: the sky and a dog facing the ground.

100
00:06:38,680 --> 00:06:42,440
Speaker 3: Let's do it, Emily. Oh, Maxie wants to try it too.

00:06:48,480 --> 00:06:50,400
Speaker 2: to make these fun dog poses.

104
00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:51,360
Speaker 3: We're ready.

105
00:06:51,760 --> 00:06:55,719
Speaker 2: First, lie down on your belly like a dog taking

106
00:06:55,760 --> 00:06:59,560
Speaker 2: a rest, and keep your legs stretched out behind you.

107
00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:00,480
Speaker 3: Aha.

108
00:07:00,920 --> 00:07:04,960
Speaker 2: Okay, Now put your hands next to your ribs like

109
00:07:05,040 --> 00:07:09,120
Speaker 2: you're about to jump with your hands. Oh wow, but

110
00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:14,640
Speaker 2: don't jump, Jess. Keep your arm straight like you're pushing

111
00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:19,160
Speaker 2: away from the floor, but your legs are glued to it,

112
00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:24,320
Speaker 2: so only your chest goes up and up and up

113
00:07:24,400 --> 00:07:25,080
Speaker 2: to the sky.

114
00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:33,400
Speaker 3: Oh wow, and now we howl like dogs. Oh look,

115
00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:36,600
Speaker 3: Maxie's doing it too, Good boy, Maxie.

116
00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:39,400
Speaker 2: And that is upward facing dog.

117
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:42,080
Speaker 3: That was a great yoga lesson, Emily.

118
00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,760
Speaker 2: Thanks Louise, oh, and you know what.

119
00:07:44,760 --> 00:07:48,080
Speaker 3: Louise, No way, wait, wait are we talking to a

Speaker 2: That's right, we are talking to kean O McGregor herself.

122
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:57,320
Speaker 3: Can't wait to meet her. Yoga gets more epic by

123
00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:58,600
Speaker 3: the minute it does.

124
00:07:59,360 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 2: Let's go talk to Keino and ask her everything about

125
00:08:02,640 --> 00:08:13,680
Speaker 2: being a yoga teacher. Let's go, Maxie right, Hello, Hello,

126
00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:18,080
Speaker 2: and welcome to our Lingo Kids Talking game show. I

127
00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:22,680
Speaker 2: hope you're ready for a calming conversation because today we're

128
00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:26,840
Speaker 2: joined by world famous yoga teacher Keno McGregor.

129
00:08:27,080 --> 00:08:30,000
Speaker 3: Hi, Keino, nice to meet you. This is my official

130
00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:32,760
Speaker 3: yoga assistant Maxi Keino.

131
00:08:33,040 --> 00:08:35,760
Speaker 2: Thank you for joining us today. Let's jump in.

132
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:38,120
Speaker 3: I want to ask the first question, Emily.

133
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:41,000
Speaker 2: Go ahead, Louis, where were you luck as a kid?

134
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,480
Speaker 3: Quino? Did you jump around with your dog like I

135
00:08:43,559 --> 00:08:44,600
Speaker 3: do with Maxi.

136
00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,800
Speaker 1: When I was younger, I was not physically so much active,

137
00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:51,920
Speaker 1: So I was never a dancer. I was never a gymnast.

138
00:08:51,960 --> 00:08:54,520
Speaker 1: I was never on a sports team. I grew up

139
00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 1: in South Florida, and I like to go to the

140
00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:02,199
Speaker 1: beach and collect shell and just kind of hang around

141
00:09:02,320 --> 00:09:06,000
Speaker 1: and be outside. And that was kind of the highlight

142
00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:11,520
Speaker 1: of my early years. I did really enjoy good stories

143
00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:16,280
Speaker 1: and reading and books were always a big part of

144
00:09:17,200 --> 00:09:20,080
Speaker 1: how I first interfaced with the world. I remember my

145
00:09:20,160 --> 00:09:21,520
Speaker 1: dad reading poetry to me.

146
00:09:21,960 --> 00:09:24,360
Speaker 3: Oh, poetry, What a cool choice.

147
00:09:24,480 --> 00:09:27,120
Speaker 2: And if you weren't too much into physical activities as

148
00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:30,480
Speaker 2: a kid, how did yoga fit in or did someone

149
00:09:30,520 --> 00:09:31,840
Speaker 2: introduce you to yoga?

150
00:09:31,960 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 1: My grandfather was Japanese and he was a practicing martial artist,

151
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:39,160
Speaker 1: and you know, he would sit cross legged on the

152
00:09:39,160 --> 00:09:41,160
Speaker 1: floor and he would stand in tree pose, and so

153
00:09:41,240 --> 00:09:43,280
Speaker 1: I kind of copied his movements a lot. But he

154
00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,400
Speaker 1: never taught me any of the martial arts that he practiced.

155
00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:48,320
Speaker 1: But I would sit on the floor with him and

156
00:09:48,360 --> 00:09:50,240
Speaker 1: I would stand in tree pose next to him.

157
00:09:50,520 --> 00:09:53,800
Speaker 3: Oh, Emily, did that tree post today? It looks hard.

158
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,319
Speaker 3: You have to be on one leg like a flamengo.

159
00:09:56,559 --> 00:10:00,240
Speaker 2: It is, And it's so beautiful that you were so

160
00:10:00,360 --> 00:10:02,080
Speaker 2: close to your grandfather. Quino.

161
00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,280
Speaker 1: Well, I think my grandfather was a huge influence on

162
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,480
Speaker 1: my life. He lived with us until he passed away,

163
00:10:09,040 --> 00:10:10,680
Speaker 1: so he was a part of every day of my

164
00:10:10,760 --> 00:10:12,880
Speaker 1: life from the time I was born till I was

165
00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:16,319
Speaker 1: almost nine. And although he never told me to do

166
00:10:16,760 --> 00:10:20,560
Speaker 1: anything physical. He never really told me that I needed

167
00:10:20,600 --> 00:10:24,720
Speaker 1: to develop a physical discipline. His presence and his connection

168
00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,920
Speaker 1: into his own body and his way of being was

169
00:10:27,960 --> 00:10:31,600
Speaker 1: a huge source of inspiration to me and still is

170
00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:32,320
Speaker 1: to this day.

171
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 3: I love my grandpa too. He taught me everything I

172
00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:37,120
Speaker 3: know about nights and dragons.

173
00:10:37,520 --> 00:10:41,240
Speaker 2: That's so sweet, Louise. Did your grandpa also teach you

174
00:10:41,240 --> 00:10:42,920
Speaker 2: your first yoga class? Kenot?

175
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: I saw my first yoga class in the gym through

176
00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:48,560
Speaker 1: some glass windows when I was nineteen years old, and

177
00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:50,840
Speaker 1: that's when I did my first class, and I saw

178
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:53,680
Speaker 1: everybody standing on their heads, and I just felt like,

179
00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,400
Speaker 1: I also want to stand on my head, so let

180
00:10:56,400 --> 00:10:59,000
Speaker 1: me come to this class. And so I just went

181
00:10:59,040 --> 00:11:01,000
Speaker 1: the next day around the same time, and that was

182
00:11:01,040 --> 00:11:02,200
Speaker 1: my first yoga class.

183
00:11:02,320 --> 00:11:05,720
Speaker 3: Oh just like me. But quote on Keno, you said

184
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:11,080
Speaker 3: you were, yes, nineteen years old, Thanks Maxie. But I'm

185
00:11:11,080 --> 00:11:13,920
Speaker 3: only eleven. Do I have to be a bigger kid

186
00:11:13,960 --> 00:11:14,760
Speaker 3: to start yoga?

187
00:11:15,160 --> 00:11:19,200
Speaker 1: I think that as soon as you think it's fun,

188
00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 1: as soon as you think it feels good practice.

189
00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:27,560
Speaker 2: Is that how you became a yoga teacher? Through practice?

190
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,800
Speaker 1: When I first started practicing ashtanga, yoga, and I made

191
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,080
Speaker 1: the trip to India and I met my teachers there.

192
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:36,199
Speaker 1: When I came back, people started asking me to teach.

193
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:40,720
Speaker 2: That's so inspiring, Keino, and I really admire how you've

194
00:11:40,800 --> 00:11:44,319
Speaker 2: kept yoga fun throughout your life. How can you make

195
00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:46,760
Speaker 2: yoga fun if you teach it to kids.

196
00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:50,720
Speaker 1: The idea really with introducing yoga at a very young

197
00:11:50,760 --> 00:11:53,600
Speaker 1: age is to keep the playful aspect of the practice.

198
00:11:53,840 --> 00:11:56,560
Speaker 1: The idea is that, hey, we like to bend forward,

199
00:11:56,600 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 1: Hey we like to bend backward. We go over to

200
00:11:58,600 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: the side, we go over here. Here's a tortoise pose,

201
00:12:01,480 --> 00:12:04,520
Speaker 1: Let's see how a tortoise feels. And here's lion pose.

202
00:12:04,600 --> 00:12:05,880
Speaker 1: Let's be lions right now?

203
00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:10,120
Speaker 3: A lion, I want to be a lion and the tortoise.

204
00:12:10,240 --> 00:12:13,080
Speaker 1: Well, here's upward facing dog, and here's downward facing dog.

205
00:12:13,160 --> 00:12:15,320
Speaker 1: And here's kat and here's cow. And so we have

206
00:12:15,400 --> 00:12:18,280
Speaker 1: all these wonderful austin As named after all of the

207
00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:19,880
Speaker 1: animals and the animal kingdom.

208
00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:21,600
Speaker 3: How can I just do all that?

209
00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:26,480
Speaker 1: If you want to start, then start. Whether you go

210
00:12:26,559 --> 00:12:28,959
Speaker 1: to a kid's yoga class, whether you find a video

211
00:12:29,000 --> 00:12:32,640
Speaker 1: you love on YouTube, whether you get a book about yoga,

212
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:35,600
Speaker 1: just start, do a few poses, put your feet up

213
00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:39,480
Speaker 1: the wall, do a little bit of breathing, and if

214
00:12:39,520 --> 00:12:42,800
Speaker 1: you love it, then keep practicing. Have someone that you

215
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:45,040
Speaker 1: trust to spot you. Then you might even be able

216
00:12:45,080 --> 00:12:46,439
Speaker 1: to get to try that headstand thing.

217
00:12:46,760 --> 00:12:49,360
Speaker 3: Yes, I really want to try that. Maybe Max can

218
00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:49,920
Speaker 3: help me out.

219
00:12:50,160 --> 00:12:53,680
Speaker 2: I'd love to see that. And for all the kids listening,

220
00:12:53,880 --> 00:12:57,920
Speaker 2: remember to try yoga with a grown up around. Keynote,

221
00:12:58,040 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 2: yoga is originally from India and now people love it

222
00:13:01,240 --> 00:13:04,040
Speaker 2: all over the world. What do you think about that?

223
00:13:04,520 --> 00:13:06,720
Speaker 1: I think the best thing for this planet could be

224
00:13:06,840 --> 00:13:08,400
Speaker 1: to have a planet full of yogis.

225
00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:10,680
Speaker 3: Yogi's that's a funny word.

226
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,600
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is fun to say, it, isn't it. A

227
00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:17,119
Speaker 2: yogi is simply a person who practices yoga.

228
00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:20,880
Speaker 1: It really inspires me when I see young kids interested

229
00:13:20,920 --> 00:13:23,680
Speaker 1: in the practice, whether they think it's fun, whether they'd

230
00:13:23,720 --> 00:13:26,239
Speaker 1: like to do all the animal shapes of the poses,

231
00:13:26,640 --> 00:13:29,080
Speaker 1: or whether they just find a little bit of peace

232
00:13:29,200 --> 00:13:32,160
Speaker 1: in the breathing and the meditation aspect of the practice.

233
00:13:32,400 --> 00:13:34,040
Speaker 1: I find that really really inspiring.

234
00:13:34,520 --> 00:13:43,199
Speaker 3: Hold on, Keino, what was that word meditation? Meditation? What's that? Louise?

235
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:45,960
Speaker 2: Do you remember when we said that yoga was a

236
00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:48,079
Speaker 2: way to keep the mind calm.

237
00:13:48,679 --> 00:13:50,320
Speaker 3: Yeah, how does that work, Emily?

238
00:13:50,880 --> 00:13:55,920
Speaker 2: You see, meditation is like taking a nap, but for

239
00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:59,520
Speaker 2: your mind. You know, when you have so many things

240
00:13:59,559 --> 00:14:01,959
Speaker 2: going on in your head that you start to get

241
00:14:02,000 --> 00:14:02,840
Speaker 2: a little dizzy.

242
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:06,760
Speaker 3: Yeah, like, I gotta do homework, I want to play

243
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:10,320
Speaker 3: with Maxie. I'm hungry. I'm thirsty. Do nights always need

244
00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:14,160
Speaker 3: horses to be real nights? I got me dizzy?

245
00:14:14,600 --> 00:14:20,600
Speaker 2: Yes, exactly. Well, meditating is a way to clear your

246
00:14:20,920 --> 00:14:25,320
Speaker 2: mind and feel a little bit less dizzy.

247
00:14:26,080 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 3: Okay, I definitely want to be a yogi now that's

248
00:14:28,840 --> 00:14:30,720
Speaker 3: what I can learn to do all the fun animal

249
00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:35,680
Speaker 3: posts and be super strong and to do meditation. Keno.

250
00:14:36,080 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 2: I have one last question, what's the best lesson yoga

251
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:41,800
Speaker 2: has taught you?

252
00:14:42,720 --> 00:14:45,720
Speaker 1: Well, it's hard to choose because Yoga's taught me many, many,

253
00:14:45,880 --> 00:14:48,640
Speaker 1: many lessons. One of the most impactful lessons that I've

254
00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:53,680
Speaker 1: learned from the practice is related to strength and the

255
00:14:53,720 --> 00:14:57,160
Speaker 1: ability to believe in myself. My yoga teacher used to

256
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,400
Speaker 1: always tell me, Keino, you have to be stronger. You

257
00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:02,320
Speaker 1: have to be strong because I wasn't naturally strong when

258
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:05,080
Speaker 1: I started the practice. I couldn't do handstands and lift

259
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:08,480
Speaker 1: ups and all those powerful strength moves that look like

260
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:12,160
Speaker 1: you're watching the Olympics. And I just couldn't do any

261
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:14,640
Speaker 1: of that. And my teacher just kept saying, you know,

262
00:15:14,680 --> 00:15:16,880
Speaker 1: you have to be stronger, you have to be stronger.

263
00:15:17,360 --> 00:15:20,200
Speaker 1: And I developed physical strength. But when I started to

264
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:23,600
Speaker 1: actually put in the work to bring my dreams into

265
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:26,400
Speaker 1: the world, then I understood what he meant. Be strong?

266
00:15:26,640 --> 00:15:29,600
Speaker 1: How strong strong enough to believe in your dreams? So

267
00:15:29,680 --> 00:15:32,240
Speaker 1: what you dream? You are the one that makes it

268
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:35,040
Speaker 1: come true. You're the one that has the power to

269
00:15:35,680 --> 00:15:38,720
Speaker 1: make that dream into reality. And how strong do you

270
00:15:38,800 --> 00:15:41,000
Speaker 1: need to be? Is how big your dream is?

271
00:15:41,960 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 3: Strong enough to believe in your dreams? Wow, I feel

272
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:48,600
Speaker 3: like I can do anything now.

273
00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:59,080
Speaker 2: Emily ready to play super Ready? All right, everyone, Welcome

274
00:15:59,160 --> 00:16:05,160
Speaker 2: to today's game show with internationally famous yoga teacher Keino McGregor.

275
00:16:05,640 --> 00:16:07,480
Speaker 2: What are we playing today, Luis.

276
00:16:07,400 --> 00:16:10,320
Speaker 3: Hey Chino. Today We're going to play would you rather?

277
00:16:10,760 --> 00:16:13,560
Speaker 3: I'll ask you a question with two choices, and you

278
00:16:13,640 --> 00:16:16,720
Speaker 3: just pick which one you like better. Okay, first question,

279
00:16:18,040 --> 00:16:21,200
Speaker 3: would you rather do yoga during sunrise or sunset?

280
00:16:21,680 --> 00:16:25,400
Speaker 1: I'd rather do outdoor yoga during sunset because I love

281
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:28,800
Speaker 1: the sunset and love that kind of lingering feeling of

282
00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:31,520
Speaker 1: watching the sunset. Also, if you do yoga for sunrise,

283
00:16:31,560 --> 00:16:35,680
Speaker 1: you have to get up bath early. So I prefer

284
00:16:35,800 --> 00:16:38,160
Speaker 1: to have a cup of tea in my own space,

285
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:41,360
Speaker 1: and you know, just the take it a little bit

286
00:16:41,400 --> 00:16:42,320
Speaker 1: easy in the morning.

287
00:16:44,120 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 3: Yeah, easy mornings are their best mornings. Okay, Maxi playtime

288
00:16:49,200 --> 00:16:53,880
Speaker 3: mornings are great too, okay. Question two, would you rather

289
00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,280
Speaker 3: do yoga with an astronaut suit or on a moving treadmill?

290
00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 1: I would rather do yoga while we're an astronaut suit

291
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,160
Speaker 1: because maybe then I would be at the International Space Station,

292
00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 1: so I might be the first yogi in space.

293
00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:12,919
Speaker 3: Question three final question, would you rather do yoga with

294
00:17:13,040 --> 00:17:14,480
Speaker 3: a dog or with a cat?

295
00:17:15,320 --> 00:17:20,280
Speaker 1: I would rather do yoga with a well trained dog

296
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:24,600
Speaker 1: because dogs can be trained to listen for the sound

297
00:17:24,720 --> 00:17:27,119
Speaker 1: own that starts the practice and the sound own that

298
00:17:27,320 --> 00:17:29,679
Speaker 1: ends the practice, and they come and they lie on

299
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,639
Speaker 1: top of you and they're really sweet. I love dogs

300
00:17:31,680 --> 00:17:32,280
Speaker 1: and cats.

301
00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:34,840
Speaker 3: Yeah. I love it when Maxi just lies on my

302
00:17:34,920 --> 00:17:36,080
Speaker 3: lap and falls asleep.

303
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,080
Speaker 1: And the only thing with cats when you practice yoga

304
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:41,640
Speaker 1: is they're always under your feet and you could harm them.

305
00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:44,080
Speaker 1: You can jump on them or land on them. I mean,

306
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,959
Speaker 1: they'll probably move out of the way before, but cats

307
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:50,640
Speaker 1: have this tendency to just spe exactly where you want

308
00:17:50,640 --> 00:17:52,080
Speaker 1: to step when you do your practice.

309
00:17:54,240 --> 00:17:58,160
Speaker 2: Thanks Keino, and remember, dear listeners, take care of your

310
00:17:58,160 --> 00:18:04,480
Speaker 2: pets when doing yoga. So, Louise, what did you learn

311
00:18:04,520 --> 00:18:08,440
Speaker 2: about being a yoga teacher? Yoga teachers help us stay

312
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:11,360
Speaker 2: healthy and calm. They show us how to do yoga,

313
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,520
Speaker 2: and they practice a lot to be great teachers. That's right.

314
00:18:15,920 --> 00:18:18,080
Speaker 2: And what did you think of yoga?

315
00:18:18,240 --> 00:18:22,639
Speaker 3: Yoga takes tons of body strength and balance, oh and focus.
