Hey everyone it's Ashley from Yoga For That. I'm here today to talk to you about
finding your authentic teaching voice. Now I'm going to talk from a yoga
perspective because that's how I teach, but you can use these tools in any form
of teaching so if it's a fitness class, if you teach in high school, any class
that you're teaching someone something, these are five simple ways that you can
find your authentic teaching voice. That's it five simple ways and you don't
have to use all of them one might resonate with you better than the others
or use all five. Make sure to stay tuned to the very end to find out my
bonus tip!
Step number one is to teach what you know. Don't try to know everything eventually
one day you might know everything, but if you stick with what you know you're
going to teach someone something. Not everyone can know everything, so
especially from a yoga perspective you might know philosophy really well, you
might know the chakras really well, you might just be really good at leading a
nice balanced class. So teach what you know and grow your following that way.
It'll also give you a strength from your inner self to continue to teach because
you coming from a place of authenticity you're coming from a place that you know
really well and you can share that knowledge with confidence and that is
the key to teaching as having this air of confidence about you. Step number two is
teaching something you're passionate about. So again maybe you're super
passionate about the sutras, maybe you're really passionate about anatomy teach
the things that resonate with you really well. A place that you really want
someone to know. so for me I come from a place of mental health I guess in terms
of leaving a space, leaving a yoga class with a sense of stress relief, with a
sense of new tools in combating the day-to-day stresses and that's something
that I really like to offer especially in my flow and my deep stretch classes.
My fitness classes are another story, but when I teach my slower paced and more
yogic style classes I really want people to leave with a peace of mind and that's
something I'm really passionate about and I try to offer in every single class
that I teach. For other people it might be anatomy cues, it might be breath so it
really just depends what you're super passionate about and come from that
place, teach that passion to people and they'll really begin to be drawn to you
and I mean you might lose some people if they're not into the sutras or maybe
they're not really into anatomy all that much or they're lost in your
your type of queueing if you're using atomic queueing words but you'll really
begin to gather a following of people based on what you're passionate about
and what you're teaching so make sure to come from a place of passion and
confidence. Step number three is to not be afraid to try new things and I don't
mean change your entire class style all at once! But if you go to a class that
you really enjoyed feel free to kind of pick and choose what really resonated in
your body what really resonated for you at the end of class and feel free to
weave that slowly into your classes. You don't want to shock people with new
class formats all at once but if you start to weave things into your classes
you will get feedback from your students good or bad if it's bad feedback take
that home with you maybe you still want to offer something like that in your
class and that's up to you that's your authentic self.
But maybe you get positive feedback and maybe slowly your class styles begin to
change a little bit and be until grow with you. Step number four, especially
when you're a new teacher, is teaching to who you know. Pick a group of friends
or if you're subbing at a new studio maybe invite one of your best friends or
a family member to come out to that studio just you have a familiar face and
teach to that person. And I don't mean directly making eye contact with them or
only giving cues to them, but when you're feeling a little bit nervous if you feel
you've lost your space maybe you look over to them a little bit of a familiar
face to kind of give you a nod forward so you can continue on with your class.
I always find the classes, even after teaching for a few years, when I don't
know anyone in the class I get extra nervous even though I know I can lead a
good class and I know that um I have that ability and me it's still
nerve-racking when you have all of these new faces you've never taken your class
before they already have all these kind of pre judgments about you because
they've never seen or met you before and they think that you're this brand new
teacher that's never taught. So if you can
invite your friend invited family member to come to these newer classes
especially in your brand-new just to give you that confidence that little
boost forward and then teach them what you know teach them what you're
passionate about and just continue on your way as a journey as a yoga teacher.
Step number five is something that I have come to appreciate in my teaching
is not being afraid to mess up. So, especially going back to step number
three where you're trying new things. I recently tried a sequence a new way of
sequencing and it failed miserably so I laughed about it I told my students, like
sorry guys tried something new there it didn't quite work today let's go back to
the regular style, brought them back to neutral foundation and began that
sequence again and it was fine. Everyone still at the end of class had a really
well-balanced class. Everyone left feeling really good we all had a little
bit of a chuckle and that's just who I am. I want my students to know that I'm
trying new things that I'm learning new things and implementing new styles with
them. And eventually I might try that sequence again with a little bit for
more familiarity trying it at home on my own a few times I can feel it in my own
body before I begin to teach it again to my students. On to your bonus tip! So your
bonus tip today is to continue learning. So no matter what it is I'm speaking
from a yoga perspective as a yoga teacher, but whether you're an English
professor or you're teaching people how to build cars, continuing to learn in
your industry. Right now I'm working towards my 500 hour yoga teacher
training credentials as some of you already know. I've done 33 hours of ayurveda
training and a hundred hours of vinyasa training and it has expanded my
practice personally and teaching more than I could have ever thought. For
the past few years didn't think I needed more training, not that I didn't need it,
but I wasn't ready for it I didn't feel that it would really serve me at that
time and then recently I was given a new opportunity to advance my teaching
career so I went back to school. I was at that point a my teaching where I
felt I kind of hit a plateau of what I could offer my
students the cuing words that I was using, the sequencing I was using, I was still
getting really good feedback, but I felt I was becoming stale. After taking
these new teacher trainings, 133 hours of training, I all of a sudden have this new
plethora of amazing experience amazing training and amazing ideas that I want
to share with my students and have been able to create new sequencing, been able
to use new cueing words, been able to create new class styles that I'm really
excited in teaching. So that's it for today's video. Five steps with your bonus
tip of how to teach anything really well with your own authentic teaching voice
Those five steps to recap: teaching what you know, teaching what you're
passionate about, trying new things, not being afraid to mess up, teaching to who
you know, and then your bonus step is to never stop learning. I hope these tips
really helped you guys out in finding your authentic teaching voice. I can't
