  • VERY IMPORTANT NOTICE0:24

    Please read this important notice carefully before continuing.

  • Introduction1:18

    We look at the major topics covered in this module, including Observation, Demonstration, Qualities of a good teacher, setting up your Yoga Business, teaching your first yoga class and more. Many practical tools are given including downloads, external articles and video support for the material.

  • Art of Observation3:31

    Without this essential skill as a proficient Yoga Instructor, you will not know what to look for in your students. Saftey is a most important factor in any yoga environment, so without good observing skills you may be falling short in this area and run the risk of your students injuring their bodies. Without a basic awareness, your adjustments and comments may also be inappropriate, misguided or simply absent. We give you pointers to help develop this vital ability and self check your progress as you go.

  • Art of Demonstration5:37

    Demonstration is a lot more than simply positioning yourself in front of a group and firing away more or less ad hoc. Careful development of this essential skill is highly valuable for helping rise above the average teacher and really excell. Learn how to read your students beyond the face value and develop an approach that genuinely furthers them in the study of Yoga.

    Naturally we need to keep our often unruly ego out of the way and ensure that our demonstrations and lead is appropriate and has the right motives backing.

  • Psychology of teaching1:36

    Gaining a handle, at least the basics, of a workable psychology of teaching is a fundamental skill. This is really an on-going process in the long term, but a few relevant and practical tips will go a long way to getting us feeling more comfortable working with a diverse group of people in a Yoga teaching environment.

  • How we learn1:23

    This is an important area of interest and looks into the various ways that humans assimilate and learn material. There is no 'one size fits all', so understanding how you yourself learn as well as a selection of common patterns amongst average folk, is a most useful skill to have as an aspiring instructor. Over time, a common picure begins to emerge and we can read it, almost as a blueprint and respond accordingly.

  • Qualities of a good teacher6:25

    A general framework is given around the characteristics of a great Yoga Teacher. We can all work on this over time as a matter of course as we gain experience and develop within these guidelines.

  • Preparing for teaching your first class5:40

    We give some direction, advice and remedies for common issues that crop up when you begin preparing for teaching your very first Yoga Class. A few of the big issues most folk have to deal with include stage nerves, preparing well enough on the relevant points, making sure that you teach from your experience and knowledge and more.

  • Principle Teaching method - Verbal1:09

    This post addresses the issue of verbal vs non verbal queing.

  • Sample Classes with program notes for new teachers to reference.17:09

    Included here are 12 sample classes with extensive study notes. A bonus 'worksheet' with salient points, for every major Category of our training course is included. This will help you stay focussed at a glance on the overall content and so further assist developing balanced class content and give ideas and inspiration.

  • Downloadable Asana Cards0:12

    These handy doanloads give important postures in various categories of Asana.

  • Teaching your first classes2:33

    Most new aspiring instructors will be quite apprehensive about taking their first class. We give you some tips and tricks to help you along and some solid advice for the bigger picture. In case you missed them, I have included the Asana Cards we added in the module 2. These are very useful as reference when setting out teaching your first classes.

  • General comments3:51

    Observervation is a vital skill we all need to grow for ourselves as instructors. Without an accute sense of awareness in this area, instructors will likely miss-read their students in terms of innate abilities, psychological factors, subtle motives, strengths and shortcomings and more. We address these issues in-depth and bring practical information and useful directly usable approaches.

  • Your own personal growth and development1:36

    Taking good care and prioritising our own growth and development may be one of the most essential endeavours that we undertake. Without this vital aspect to our approach we run the risk of stagnating, losing interest and possibly even drifting away completely.

Requirements

  • Suitable for prospective Yoga Teachers taking our Level 1 training.
