14. A Kids Yoga Perspective With Jodi Golda Komitor

“I would like to use this time (of sabbatical) of dismantling this identity that I’ve had for 21 years in a very conscious way and allow my next version of me to come through in a very clear and integrous way.” ~ Jodi Golda Komitor Join The OHMazing® Way podcast creator, producer and host, Beth Reese, PhD, E-RYT, RCYT, YACEP, and guest Jodi Golda Komitor, MA, E-RYT 500, RCYT, in a conversation about how yoga found her, starting the first kids yoga studio, being a successful entrepreneur, and how she has seen the world of kids yoga change since 1998. “I love the culture of mindfulness that has impacted so many children’s home life, school life, community life, and this is how we are going to make the world a better place.” ~ Jodi Golda Komitor In the second half, Jodi shares a brief mindfulness meditation technique and then shares her path for selling her 21 year old business, Next Generation Yoga, choosing to share authentically and vulnerably, as well as what’s next in her life! “This is the yoga off the mat: letting people in, letting people support me, letting people offer feedback and receiving it.” ~ Jodi Golda Komitor Jodi Golda Komitor is the founder of Next Generation Yoga® (NGY) - the first Kids Yoga studio in the world. Inspired by her background in education, Jodi Golda started Next Generation Yoga in 1998 in New York City, a company she operated for 21 years. While in leadership at NGY, Jodi Golda developed &amp; implemented school &amp; community-based programs, U.S. &amp; international Teacher Trainings and multidimensional online offerings. Of course, she didn’t do any of this alone &amp; is proud of the badass teachers, trainers &amp; team with whom she hired, collaborated &amp; grew NGY. And yet, Jodi Golda recognizes and values the law of change. In May of 2019, she passed the baton and sold Next Generation Yoga. Her passion for mentoring Kids Yoga entrepreneurs remains strong. She is the organizer of a noncompetitive, like-minded international business group called The Biz of Kids Yoga™. Through The Biz of Kids Yoga™, Jodi Golda provides private and group coaching to Kids Yoga &amp; Mindfulness professionals. Jodi Golda currently lives in the San Francisco Bay Area and when she is not business coaching, she can be found practicing the arts of unwinding, romping in nature, spending quality time with loved ones, and performing random acts of kindness. Her main focus now? Searching for the right and perfect location for an upcoming sabbatical.
