In this FREE 60-minute workshop you will be introduced to the Three WHEELS of Teaching as a way of clarifying the varying levels and subject matters that are presented throughout a yoga class:
1st WHEEL: Action
This is the foundation of teaching a class.This is where we develop structure, confidence and a clear direction of where we are going.This helps us move past our insecurities, fears, and doubts.How?By showing you how to create a structured approach in your class that helps you relax when you teach and get over second-guessing yourself.
2nd WHEEL: Precision
Precision transforms from instructing shapes to teaching how to practice.It is what takes us from the surface to the deeper levels of the work we are teaching.This wheel penetrates the surface and creates depth within each practice.This is where we develop the ability to speak with precision and create opportunities for personal insights for each individual student.
3rd WHEEL: Purpose
This is where we introduce contemplative ideas from the great philosophy of yoga and the spiritual world.The question is why bother putting yourself through the difficulty of practice…The 3rd wheel is where real human connections about the bigger purposes of life occur.It minimizes the chances of burnout, intellectual dullness and that of an inspired mind.
These 3 WHEELS make for a systematic approach for developing the initial connections with the students and the practice…Progressing to a deeper level of understanding of the poses and the true purpose of yoga to live a happy life.They also help protect our enthusiasm, build our community or our student-base relationships.These principles have transformed my teachings and my life.They have helped me gain new mastery in my teachings and made a significant contribution to my yogic community of students and teachers all over the world & developed into a VIBRANT yoga community ONLINE.
