Hi, I'm Christina and welcome to my channel ChriskaYoga! In today's video, this one is for the yoga
Teachers I've been teaching yoga since 2014. I'm a registered yoga teacher now at 3500 our level
I got my first yoga teacher training back in March of 2014
I wish that somebody was there to guide me at the beginning
there are a lot of things that I learned over the past 3 plus years that I've been teaching yoga, and
I thought I would share them with you. I'll just get started if you're new how to establish yourself as an authority
because if you have taken a
Real solid 200 our yoga teacher training where your teachers and mentors were knowledgeable
Then now you are an authority on yoga, and you should establish yourself as such I know
After coming out of my first 200 our yoga teacher training. I knew so much I had learned so much
It was a life-changing experience for me
But I still felt small
I still felt like I was in the shadows of my mentors who had been practicing yoga for years and years
They had been practicing yoga for basically my entire lifetime
And maybe and then some so I felt very intimidated like I was still
Like I was still a student and not a teacher
But it's important that you start thinking of yourself as an authority on yoga
And you have the knowledge now in order to teach people who do not know anything about yoga
And who want to learn more you have the power now
And I would like to help you to get started with these tips
before we get started with these tips for new yoga teachers if you aren't yet subscribe to this channel if
You want to practice yoga with me even though you're a teacher I?
Still practice with other teachers as well, so if you want to practice yoga with me
I post two free yoga classes on this YouTube channel every single week
It is completely free to subscribe and I would love to have you as a subscriber as a part of this growing community
There are also yoga teachers in this community as well
And I definitely recommend
Joining us because they are a bunch of awesome people so I would love to have you as well
So let's get into these tips number one
Don't be afraid to put yourself out. There as an introvert myself I
was definitely afraid to put myself out there at first I as I said before I
Still felt like a small student who didn't know anything when in reality?
You went through 200 hours of training and you do know things so it's time to
establish yourself and be confident in your knowledge and
Don't be afraid to put yourself out there
Oh, don't be afraid to contact Studios actually going to yoga studios
I had a friend in my 200 hour training who owned a yoga studio and
She basically said some so many people contact the studio
But they never actually come in take a class get to know us
and I think establishing a relationship at the yoga studio is important in order to get your foot into the door and
Really be able to eventually teach they're there
You're probably if you live in a big city you're probably going to have to get on the sub list first
or a lot of studios, which
Can be challenging as well you have to go through a lot of auditions
But if there's a will, there's a way
and
You really can't be afraid to put in the work and put yourself out there in order to actually get the jobs that you want
as a yoga teacher
The number 2 tip I'm going to share with you is teach your friends so when I first started
I was practicing I gave my mom some private lessons. I gave my boyfriend at the time some private lessons
I taught my mom's friends. I taught my friends
I I just taught whoever I could
Whenever I could and I wanted to practice my teaching voice my teaching presence if you don't practice you will lose it
Teaching itself is something that is a skill
I personally think that I have definitely developed my teaching skill because I taught dance before I taught yoga
And I am a lifelong student I have
years and years of
school under my belt college
Grad school, so I have been in an academic teaching environment for quite some time
So I think that establishing your teaching skill is important
You need to practice to whoever is willing to let you practice on them, and if they're nice enough
They might give you some feedback as well
Always constructive feedback is always good negativity is not so good so
Be careful with who you teach make sure that they are supportive
But yeah finding people to practice teaching on is always always
Important to do that brings me to my next tip which is super important for you to be safe
So get yourself some insurance get yourself some teaching insurance if you register yourself
With the yoga, Alliance you should definitely be able to get a discount on teaching insurance
They have specific insurance for yoga teachers if you aren't familiar
And it's just the safe thing to do god. Forbid somebody gets injured, and it's not even your fault
It's just maybe they were careless
They didn't listen to your instructions or they slipped on the studio, which has nothing to do with you
You don't want to get caught in a legal situation without having insurance
So that's one of the first very first things that you should be doing when you start teaching people
The next tip I'm going to share with you is
donation based
Classes and free classes start out by giving your classes away for free this does along the lines with teaching your friends teaching your family
Yoga in order to practice but in order to establish yourself as a teacher
You need to actually teach classes and let them try them out for free and if they like them if they like your teaching style
Then you can definitely establish your personal yoga community, and they'll keep coming back to you for more classes
And if you want to start charging if they actually like your classes you can
Start charging them and making a living from doing the work. Which is super important
You definitely are putting in a lot of work as a yoga teacher?
So it isn't to feel comfortable charging for your work as well
Which is another obstacle and a lot of teachers yoga teachers and fitness?
Teachers go through because they feel guilty with asking people for money in exchange for the service of teaching
this is a
Mindset that you need to let go of and assure yourself that people are willing to pay for your work and this is
super important, however at the beginning
It's always great to give people a free try at first so that they start to get to know you get to know your
Style and start to love your style and come back for more another great thing is donation based classes accept
Whatever donation people want to give you I started doing this when I first started teaching, yoga
I was teaching at a fitness studio, and then I also was holding my own donation based classes
It was a very small group
I had maybe two to three people in the class and that was great and they would donate to me
And it didn't make a living, but it definitely
Established my relationship with them and establishing myself
Even further as a yoga teacher and an authority on yoga the next portion of the tips is
establishing your presence online
Creating an online portfolio for yourself so number one first and foremost it is very important to get a website
I suggest this to not only yoga teachers
But choreographers or anyone who is in business for themselves even if you're working for a studio as a yoga teacher
You're still in business for yourself you might want to teach on other studios as well having a website is your online reference so
Something that you can put on a business card if you meet somebody and you say hey
You can look at my website. See which classes. I'm teaching if you're teaching or learn more about me
You can have a very simple website one to two pages just where they can
Contact you if you have any social media links more about you some photos of yourself
Which is another side point definitely take some photos of yourself
It's important for a website for any kind of online portfolio that I'm going to be discussing
You don't even have to have a paid website
There are tons of platforms that post websites for free Wix is one of them, so if you have
Limited funds in order to host your website. You can do it for free
it's just important to have one another great way to establish your authority put yourself out there and
Have a online
portfolio of your teaching is
YouTube so teaching yoga online on YouTube
Is something that I started doing in order to?
showcase my teaching style I have been teaching yoga for a few months when I first started the channel and
I realized I wanted to branch out to more studios, and I wanted to have sort of a video
representation of my teachings so I created the yoga YouTube channel as a way to
Show people how I teach show other yoga studios my teaching style what I didn't know and what YouTube is also excellent for is
reaching yoga students a lot of
Students are on YouTube looking for yoga classes and this brings me into my final tip which is social media yoga is huge on
Instagram there are tons and tons of yoga teachers on Instagram Facebook
Having those pages having those things where your students can follow you and where people can find you are super important
Even if it's just focusing on one or two things so if you want to focus on YouTube and Instagram
Awesome if you want to focus on Facebook and Instagram
That's a great way to start too. It's just it's up to you, but I highly recommend
Doing it so yeah. That's social media page specifically for your yoga
And you can start out by inviting your friends to follow you and then if done the right way
You will start to reach other people so people that don't know you that aren't your friends and family
That are just interested in your yoga teaching
