Branding separates you from other teachers, in a good way and clearly explains the type of yoga teacher you are. It also offers students a peek into your teaching methodology. So let's talk about branding and how important it is to differentiate yourself in the sea of yoga teachers that are teaching today. Realizing the differences between yourself and other yoga teachers is necessary. 

You don't need to compare yourself to other teachers, or judge yourself against other teachers, instead, realize your strengths. What do you enjoy teaching? Utilize this information to attract students who love what you have to offer.

I remember when I first started sending newsletters out. Initially, my strategy for sending them was to connect with students and keep them updated on my teaching schedule and any additional offerings I had available, whether that was workshops, special classes, retreats, etc.  This was great because I didn't have to rely on seeing students in person in order to talk with them. And I wasn't limited by the short amount of time I had to talk at the start of class. 

I knew newsletters should be a part of my business, but at the time I didn't fully realize how important they are. Now after 10 years of sending out newsletters, I fully understand their importance and I want you to as well. 

In this episode, I'll share with you some ideas to add to your newsletters so your subscribers can't wait to open them because they know there will be so much value inside!

Today we're continuing on with more business advice. I want to talk with you about the importance of being strategic about your career.  Initially I was taking continuing education for reasons other than really being strategic about them. But it was when I got clear on what and who I love teaching that it became clear to me what paths would benefit me the most. 

When I decided to focus my studies on injuries, pain management, recovery strategies, teaching aging and injured bodies it prepared me to sit on a panel discussion on Fitness & Pain Management.  As I was studying and falling in love with these subjects and teaching these types of bodies in classes, I also knew that I wanted to be able to share what I know in a bigger audience to more people who weren't necessarily already in my orbit. And that's what I want for you too. 

So have a listen & let's get strategic!

I know you're a teacher who understands the value in continuing your education. Whether it's to continue learning, stay current and relevant. Maybe it's to keep your teaching and sequencing fresh or just to go all in. On a particular subject.

For example, you've invested in continuing education on topics like anatomy sequencing. Different modalities such as strength, training, resistance, bands, mobility, self myofascial release which is one of my favorites), or issues that pertain to aging bodies, injured bodies, maybe it's the lymphatic system, cadaver labs, and even yoga's roots.

I mean, the list is endless and it really is contingent on your interest. And that's what makes you different than any other yoga teacher.

In this episode, let's discuss the benefits of synthesizing what you're learning in your continuing education and extending that knowledge to your students. That's accessible and easy for them to pick up. All while you integrate the topics you're studying.

Yoga students look to you to be the light. The teacher who commands the room. The one person in the yoga room for students to lean on. The one that yogis come to when their lives seem out of order, right?

Have you ever had a student cry in class? Have they told you that they just needed to release because life is a lot right now. In some form or another, you know, that students come to class to let go. To forget about everything outside the yoga room.

And you may have even encouraged this at the start of your classes. But what about you? What about when your world is falling apart? Whether it's a breakup. A divorce or a death in your family, the devastation is there and it's simmering underneath the surface. The question is, can you hold it together and teach? If you haven't experienced this yet, odds are, you will at some point during your yoga teaching career. 

So let's talk about it...

This is an example of a fixed mindset. I always ask teachers to take what resonates and leave the rest, but be open to coming back to the information at a later date and see if it resonates then. I would never force a teacher to learn something new because oftentimes when we are presented with new information, We resisted. Or get defensive. Because it might go against the grain of what we already know.  

This episode dives into the physical and mental ways we get in our own way. Some you may recognize and others not so much. 

Listen and identify if you're getting in your own way!

 I'm going to talk to you a little bit about how to craft your teaching career. In this episode, we will use an example, start at the big-picture goal and work backwards. By the way, I love starting at big-picture goals! 

This episode follows my roadmap to uncover what you want to teach, where you want to teach, how you want to teach, and discover the steps to help you get there. So if you're unable to take notes, say you're driving or washing dishes (btw I always listen to podcasts when I'm washing dishes) or say you just don't have a pen and paper near you to take notes. No worries. Included in the show notes below is a workable - downloadable PDF, meaning it has space for you to jot down your ideas. This is the exact roadmap that I use with teachers in my Business of Yoga 2.0 coaching program. 

And I'm going to partially walk you through it on this episode. So you don't have to write a thing, just yet. Just listen and let the information soak in!
