Everyone’s learning process is different. Learning processes differ depending on for example:

• the type of thing you want to learn

• your experience with the topic so far

• the methodologies and learning techniques you’ve been taught to use in the past

Some sign up for courses to work towards a specific outcome in a container, finding support in sharing their journey with their classmates. Others go for coaching or mentoring to receive 1:1 or personalised support. And again others like a more independent approach and try to figure it all out by themselves.

Whatever your learning strategy looks like, it can be that you:

• Don’t know really know where to start or how to continue

• Feel overwhelmed with all the different resources, materials and courses available and don’t know which is right for you

• Get stuck because you focus on things you don’t actually need by using old-fashioned learning methods that don’t (longer) work for you

• Feel alone, because you don’t have anyone to share your progress with

As an avid learner of anything to do with yoga and foreign languages, I’ve explored many different learning strategies. Some worked, some didn’t, and years back I thought it’d be the same for everyone.

However, teaching English as a foreign language has taught me that the opposite is true. Everyone has a different way of absorbing and processing information, so I’m aware that there’s no one-size-fits-all.

I love exploring this topic and it’s my passion to help you optimise your learning journey. So, having helped hundreds of yoga teachers and English learners navigate their journey I realised that there’s one thing that truly works for all: personalising your learning journey!

In this training I’ll take you through the 7 ways to optimise learning English for yoga!

Learning a foreign language comes with unique challenges.

Depending on your mother tongue, some languages may be easier to learn than others. But, even when the roots or origins of two languages are the same, vocabulary, grammar, pronunciation, and cultural aspects are different.

Most of the time, the purpose of general language classes is to help you pass exams. This is unfortunate when you want to learn a language for teaching yoga. The language aspects we use in a yogic setting are very specific and very sensitive. General language classes usually don’t provide you with the knowledge and skill practice you need to teach yoga in a foreign language.

So, yoga teachers that have never studied language for yoga classes often make mistakes that can

• cause physical and emotional harm

• damage your student-teacher relationships

• cause a lot of confusion

​

In today’s training I want to discuss with you three of the most common language mistakes I see teachers in our community make. My aim is to help you analyse your language use and find out what you can improve it to

• make yourself understood better

• guide your students with more compassion

• strengthen your student-teacher relationships

Resources mentioned:

Why it's a bad idea to translate your scripts

Ways of being inclusive in your English yoga classes

Ways of including everybody in your English yoga classes

Uncomplicated grammar in your English yoga classes

Cueing is the art of verbally guiding students through your yoga asana classes.

It includes all the words, phrases, metaphors and expressions you use to teach.

​

Now, imagine teaching yoga in a foreign language…

Knowing the correct terminology for body parts, verbs, and language for directions and movement can be quite a challenge.

Then understanding which words are inclusive and non-offensive requires study and real-life experience.

And when you finally know the right vocabulary, forming sentences that are quickly understood by your students and easy to remember for you is the next step.

​

As you can tell, cueing isn't something you learn in one day and mistakes are easily made.

​

In this training, I'd like to help you become aware of 5 cueing mistakes that are commonly made by multilingual yoga teachers. This awareness will help you:

• analyse what language aspects you can improve

• optimise your verbal communication to strengthen your student-teacher relationships

• guide your students with compassion

When I did my first yoga teacher training, I learned the hard way that the language we use in a yogic setting isn’t the same as what we learn in general language classes. At this point I was already very fluent in English; I had a C2 certificate and even taught English as a foreign language to students from all over the world.

I did not once think that I would have language challenges doing my yoga teacher training in English. My level of English was proficient, but having a conversation about yogic topics, let alone cueing a yoga asana class was something completely new.

In the very beginning, I felt defeated and doubted my skills.

It made me feel as if I had to start learning all over again. But then I realised it had nothing to do with my language skills, it simply was because my studies and daily conversations had never been in this area.

Thankfully, I was an English language teacher so I could transfer the skills and knowledge I gained teaching general and exam English, to teach myself the language I needed for teaching yoga. I spent hours and hours learning, studying, observing, and improving.

Realising that the need for language and communication training among yoga teachers was high, I did more yoga teacher training and eventually developed a framework to help you: non-native English speaking yoga teachers, learn the language you need for your job, so that you can:

• Teach with confidence

• Speak with authenticity

• Strengthen your student-teacher relationships.

Based on my experience guiding hundreds of yogis learning to teach yoga in English as a foreign language, in this training I want to share with you 3 steps to help you understand:

• Where to start teaching yoga in a foreign language.

• What to do to save time

• How you can make your learning journey personal, effective and enjoyable!

The biggest obstacle when learning anything is lack of confidence.

Think of when you're learning a foreign language and feel embarrassed about your pronunciation.

Or learning to teach yoga and doubt your cues and instructions are effective and easily understood.

Imagine learning to teach yoga in a foreign language and the fears around both your speaking and teaching skills come up.

When you lack confidence it's possible that you

• hide

• stop trying

• avoid things you find challenging

But if your aim is to teach yoga in internationally, in multiple languages none of these things help.

Instead, I want to help you teach with total confidence and share your passion for yoga without doubting yourself.

If you recognise this challenge, join me for this training to find out about 3 key tools that help you boost your confidence teaching yoga in a foreign language and you can easily start doing today!

This year, I envision a lot of growth for YOU!

Having travelled quite a bit, I know our yoga and wellness practices aren't available to everyone and certainly not in every language.

I believe it's my job to guide you learn to teach yoga in more than one language and build your own business so we can spread the benefits of yoga and wellness around the globe.

But to do so, I need YOU!

It's time to get out of your comfort-zone!

Time to learn the skills, gain the knowledge and confidence to teach internationally. To share your skills, knowledge, experience, and expertise (even if until now you haven't felt ready to do so).

So in today's episode I want to help you analyse where you’re at in your teaching journey so that you can intentionally take your next step forward.

Every year is full of new learnings!

To fully be present with what arises... what needs to be seen... and prepare for growth...

I believe we need intentional reflection on 'what actually happened' and 'how we got there'.

For me personally, 2022 was an extremely challenging year.

I started the year feeling completely burnt out, not being able to do anything for 3 months. I separated, moved countries, went back into therapy and did A LOT of work on myself.

Even though I felt defeated, triggered, tested... I know it was something I had to go through to experience 'break through'.

Break through was needed to keep doing what I do... helping you create the career you dream of!

Whether it's by improving your language and communication skills or business knowledge.

I met heaps of incredible people that inspired, supported, and encouraged my growth.

I had tons of new experiences, 'aha' moments, transitions, and signs that activated my intuition and made me make life changes (which I'll share with you tomorrow)

So, in this live training, I'll tell you a little bit about what happened for me in 2022, what I learned and how I dealt with the challenges life threw my way to step up and overcome obstacles that limited my growth (and career path).

I hope you see this as an invitation to receive the tools to intentionally reflect on your year too and prepare yourself for intuitive goal setting!

Every year, around this time, I check in with how things are going in my business...

I check in with my values and 'reason why'...

I examine our purpose and if the actions we take match it...

I acknowledge mistakes...

I look at what and how to improve...

And, I set new goals!

These goals often include investments too. Investments in studies, coaches, software, and programmes.

The reason I do it at this time of the year is that the biggest sales of tech, software and programmes is happening very soon. And if you're in business, you know that these investments add up, so why not take this chance and save a little money!

You may already have a wish list of programmes and software to invest in, so in today's live training I want to help you reflect and analyse what you truly need to thrive in your next year in business!

Without partnerships and collaborations I would never make the impact I'm making and experience the success I have today'.

I'm so immensely grateful to myself that from early on in my business, I took action and went out there to establish partnerships and collaborations. And so grateful too, for all the opportunities these partnerships and collaborations opened up for me after (and still do).

Joint efforts have endless benefits and can cause your business to grow organically, very fast. You as one of the partners have the opportunity to leverage your expertise, but at the same time you’re introducing your audience to another party they can benefit from. Whatever your partnership or collaborations looks like, they can add immense value to the way you and your business are being portrayed and perceived.

So in today's training let’s have a look at some invaluable reasons why you need to partner up and collaborate to experience massive growth in your business or career!
