Tips For Yoga Teachers
-
Have a feeling of friendliness toward your students. Don’t see yourself superior to them.
-
While giving instructions, keep your eyes open. It makes the students feel they are being observed for correctness. When guiding a meditation, you can close your eyes.
-
Keep your face relaxed. A tense teacher makes yoga look more challenging to learn.
-
If you are very flexible, don’t demonstrate your full range to beginner students. It may discourage some students.
-
If a student in your class can do asanas better than you, don’t feel nervous. Acknowledge that student, and sometimes use him/her as a model for demonstrating asanas. It will put you at ease.
-
Listen to the quality and volume of your voice. It should be pleasant and not a commanding voice. Use a microphone instead of speaking too loud.
-
Correct your students’ asanas without telling them they are doing it wrong. Just tell them that needs to be done.
-
Respect others’ opinions. Don’t get into arguments. They can ruin the whole class.
-
Be willing to learn from your students. You can learn a lot in so many ways.
-
Prepare for your class properly. Know your subject thoroughly. During the class, if you can’t answer a question, say so. Don’t mislead your students. They will respect you more for your honesty
-
Always end the class with a peaceful and inspiring note.

My Hair Story 🙂
I started losing hair at an early age. When I came to Canada, I thought, here in Canada, they must have a cure for hair loss. So, I went to see a Doctor. After waiting in the waiting room for about an hour, I was led to the Doctor’s office. There I saw a fully bald Doctor:)
He asked me how he could help me? I said I had stomach pain.
