When yoga teachers tell me they want to feel “confident” and then they share the things that aren’t working for them, the things that are getting in the way of feeling “confident,” what it often relates to is giving their power away. What this often looks like is deferring to other teachers’ opinions and methods, even when it doesn’t work well for them. If this is you, you’re not alone. Many yoga teachers tell me they do this. There is another way though; one where you feel confident and empowered and instead of just following what other people are doing, having purpose behind what you do. Find out how to do this in this week’s episode.…

In this episode, you’ll walk away with a plan of action to help you up-level as a yoga teacher. As this episode is being recorded in December, 2024, it’s a great time to set new goals for your development as a yoga teacher for next year. However, the goals you’ll discover when you listen to this episode are timeless and you can experiment with them any time of the year. The episode begins with a description of “glowing up” and how that resonated with me as the source of the goals that you’ll hear about when you listen. I then go on to share a re-cap of the prior episode, Episode 326, where I interviewed Helene Whitfield, the Chief Visionary Officer of the newly formed G.O.Y.A, the Global Online Yoga Association. I wanted to be sure if you missed it, you took the time to listen because it’s really a one-of-a-kind conversation that dispels many of the misconceptions about what it means to be a Registered Yoga Teacher via Yoga Alliance. It also gives you a chance to learn about GOYA as another resource you can use to help you learn and grow. I then share a mindset lesson designed to empower you and support you in teaching the way you want, rather than trying to please the students in your class. While it might seem counterintuitive, it truly is the path to confident teaching. You’ll then hear the 6 “glow-up” goals for 2025 and I’ll walk you through each one with examples. Action steps from this episode: There's a new opportunity for you: The Yoga Teacher Confidence Club. This monthly membership will allow you to access exclusive workshops and trainings that I’ll host each month, along with special training guides, private videos and audio lessons and more. Doors open 12/16/24 and when you take join for just $27/month, you’ll get a bonus of free access to my Mindset Method course-regularly priced at $444!

With over two decades in the health and wellness industry, my mission has been to cultivate spaces where everyone can find their flow. My leadership has steered GOYA from a concept to a global association for teachers, schools and practitioners. Over the last 15 years, navigating the intricate and frequently perplexing realm of yoga education standards and alliance bodies, I've encountered numerous challenges and frustrations. These experiences led me to deeply consider and envision what my fellow yoga educators and teachers genuinely require from their membership organization. As a mother and a wife, my journey took a dramatic turn during the pandemic, battling breast cancer and facing the lack of guidance and support from the very organizations meant to provide these to their members. This challenging period crystallized the vision of GOYA. Determined to rewrite the narrative on what a yoga education and teacher credentialing association should embody, I stand here ready to turn a new page. As a yoga teacher, a yoga teacher trainer, and an avid volunteer for global causes, I have nurtured this dream for many years. I am overjoyed to see this vision come to life and thrilled that you are part of this movement for change.

Summary Handling Yoga Class Scenarios In this episode, Karen Fabian, the host of "Conversations for Yoga Teachers," discusses common scenarios that occur in yoga classes and offers approaches to handle them. She emphasizes the importance of understanding one's own teaching style and not being afraid to adapt it. Karen also introduces a new format for the show, where she demonstrates the content at the beginning to ensure the listener knows what to expect. She encourages listeners to share their experiences via DM on Instagram @barebonesyoga if any of the scenarios resonate with them. Dealing With Negative Feedback in Yoga Karen shared a story she saw on TikTok about a Yoga teacher in Chicago who shared that someone, a student, publicly ranked her favorite teachers based on their classes. Karen expressed her thoughts about this and emphasized that teachers can't control how others perceive their classes and shouldn't be worried about negative feedback. Instead, they can focus on teaching their best. Maintaining Confidence in Teaching Karen discussed the importance of being prepared and confident in teaching, regardless of the students' backgrounds or levels of experience. She emphasized the need to stick to a well-prepared sequence and not be swayed by unexpected situations or student reactions. Karen also shared a hypothetical scenario where a teacher encounters a class full of new faces with varying levels of experience, and advised against changing the planned sequence on the spot. She stressed the importance of maintaining a non-reactive mindset and focusing on one's own preparation and delivery. Adapting to Student Needs in Yoga Karen emphasized the importance of adapting to the needs of individual students in a yoga class. She suggested that teachers should not feel obligated to change their prepared sequences unless they can easily do so. Instead, they should focus on helping students who are struggling by getting off the mat and walking around to provide clear cues. Karen also recommended using action-oriented phrases to effectively teach a mixed-level class. Accessible Yoga and Teacher Intentions Karen discussed her cueing method and its application in teaching yoga. She emphasized the importance of making classes accessible to students of varying levels of experience and flexibility. Karen suggested that teachers can focus on offering modifications to make postures more accessible, rather than presenting advanced variations that may not be suitable for all students. She also encouraged teachers to be intentional about the type of yoga they present, aligning it with their vision. Karen concluded by urging teachers to reflect on whether their classes are a reflection of their true intentions or merely a replication of what they were trained to do. Understanding Yoga Styles and Confidence Karen discussed the importance of understanding the style of yoga and the class setup when covering for another teacher. She emphasized the need to familiarize oneself with the regular teacher's class before taking on the subbing role. Karen also highlighted the need to avoid putting oneself down when covering a class, as it's a service to the students. She stressed the importance of being confident in one's own teaching abilities and not comparing oneself to others. Maintaining Professional Boundaries in Teaching Karen shared a personal anecdote about a time when she had to substitute teach a popular class, highlighting the importance of maintaining professional boundaries with students. She emphasized that a teacher's role is to focus on the practice, not their personal relationships with students. Karen also discussed the issue of students leaving class early, advising against taking it personally and instead focusing on sending them off with positive thoughts. She stressed that students' actions are often driven by their own issues, not the teacher's performance. Adapting Teaching Methods for Students Karen emphasized the importance of adapting teaching methods to suit individual students. Karen also discussed the issue of cues not working during a class, suggesting that teachers can revert to clear, short action phrases and spend more time observing students to correct any misalignments. She offered to help teachers who want to improve their teaching style through a direct message on Instagram. Adapting Teaching Methods for Students Karen discussed the importance of adapting teaching methods to the needs of students. She emphasized the value of observing students and adjusting cues in real-time, as this helps students feel seen and learn better. Karen also shared her personal experience of feeling called out during yoga practice and suggested that sharing cues to the room versus a specific student is very effective. Empowering Yoga Teachers Karen emphasized the importance of feeling confident teaching yoga classes. She stressed the need for teachers to be aware of their sequence and not be swayed by special requests from students. She encouraged teachers to explore different teaching methods and styles, and to not be constrained by traditional norms. Karen's goal is to empower teachers to be the kind of yoga instructors they truly want to be, rather than being driven by consumer expectations. Final thoughts Karen ended the episode by encouraging listeners to experiment with the new approaches over the next two weeks and share their experiences via Instagram DM. She also offered a free PDF on her Instagram page, titled "Concepts in Movement," and a new payment plan for her program, The Yoga Anatomy Blueprint Learning Program, offering a discounted rate of $367 to get started, with 5 more similar payments after that. This offer is good until the end of 2024. Links: www.barebonesyoga.com https://barebonesyoga.thinkific.com/courses/blueprint-learning-program https://barebonesyoga.lpages.co/concepts-in-movement/…
