The Corporate Yoga Revolution: “I would like more yoga with my yoga” Aliza Podwol
Aliza worked for CPY for 3.5 years. She loved that the training she took made her feel equipped to teach, and the community that allowed her to look forward to her time behind the desk bonding with teachers and students. She also had to work 3 other jobs to support herself while working nearly 40 hours a week at Corepower. The toxic positivity - the "attitude of gratitude" - was used as a reason not to give her a raise for the work she was doing, and she found her requests for a more reasonable working wage fell on deaf ears, which was frustrating for a company rooted in feedback. It was also frustrating when the teacher trainings moved into quality over quantity. In order to support the expansion, CPY had to train and hire a lot of teachers - quickly. This led to a generation of teachers that were not well-educated in anatomy and how to safely direct students. Aliza now teaches online at privateyogaathome.com.
