154: A message of empowerment for when life gets in the way and you lose touch with your purpose
Working with my students, I like to keep in touch and check in via Whatsapp.
This way I offer support when life gets in the way and accountability to keep our students on track.
A few weeks back, I receive a message from a student. She described the many things going on life and how it made her lose touch with her soul’s mission to teach worldwide.
This message spoke to me so much because I know that she’s not alone, feeling this way. Life is an eb and flow of emotions and experiences and it’s only natural, we sometimes feel defeated or find ourselves in a place where your next step seems unclear.
I’ve felt this way myself too. Taking on jobs and responsibilities that didn’t fulfil me. Doubting my skills and experience were enough or as good as other teachers. Neglecting my dreams and purpose because it felt like a lot of work.
But speaking from this experience, I also know that it’s not about just about finding a job as a teacher or creating teaching opportunities, it’s about tuning in with your mission and vision and following a career path that suits you. It’s just just finding work as a teacher, but building a career or business model that aligns with your authentic qualities, with your ideal lifestyle and energy levels.
Listen as I reply to her message and save the episode. I hope that in times you feel lost, this love message will gives you a new perspective. A reminder to stay true to yourself. And the drive and motivation to reconnect to your purpose.

152: What is actually costs to build your business 💡
Working with my coaching clients, I often hear two incorrect statements that honestly blow my mind... 🤯
'Building a business is expensive!'
Correction: 'Building a business is an investment in your future, wellbeing, sense of purpose and fulfilment.' 🌿
'To build my business, I need a loan or investor.'
Excuse me, may I ask you what for? Have you actually looked into what you need? 🤨
💡 You need to redefine the word investment!
When you're starting out, it's natural to feel uncertain about the investments needed to thrive. You may overthink the cost of building and hosting your website, using an email software, or needing a mic, camera and light to record your classes.
Lack of clarity on your investments may hold you back or make you fear that it takes a long time to pay off.
👆🏼 But here's the thing: understanding the costs and investments of what it truly takes to embark on this path is crucial.
It's the key that unlocks the door to confidently pursuing your purpose in the wellness world. 🗝️🚪
If yours push your dream to build your career and business forward based on false beliefs on what it costs... I need to you join us for our live training today!
Are you ready to plan your year ahead and step into your role as a business owner? 🚀
2024 is around the corner.
A new year gives you the opportunity to do things differently. To grow and evolve. To set new goals or finally go after them.
To kiss goodbye your 9-5 job. Stop teaching 15+ classes a week. Or build a schedule that allows you to enjoy the things you love more (your friends, family, travel, or passion for self-development).
It’s a time to open yourself up to new possibilities - to expand your opportunities, and set intentions that are aligned with your ideal future. And make 2024 the year you do what makes you feel alive. 🌿🌞

151: 4 Major Lessons That Will Change The Way You Do Business
As I reflected on this past year, a realised how much my business approach has changed! 👩🏼💻📈💫Last year's burnout made me realise I lost touch with authenticity. Out of scarcity and an ego of pleasing and overachieving, I blindly followed others' strategies, losing touch with my core values and unique qualities. But from this, I've learned some extremely valuable lessons. 💡Authenticity as a business owner to me means knowing who you are and honouring where you're at. But also accept that learning never stops, taking responsibility and investing in education and development to fulfil your purpose. 🤍So, I reflected on what worked and didn't, set clearer boundaries and decided to throw out everything that no longer served me to make room for a fresh slate.Listen and learn about the 4 major lessons that change the way you'll do business!________________________________Your purpose-driven journey is closer than you think! 🔮🪄The trick is to already step into the shoes of a business owner and let your future self rule today by making conscious decisions that support your desired future.If creating a life where you can work, travel, and live on your terms resonates with you, I'd love to see you at the:Craft Your Path to Purposeful Entrepreneurship | Workshop series 🚀📈INCLUDES:Non-Judgemental Year Reflection for Productivity 19th Dec. 2023 | 16pm CETIntuitive Goal-Setting for 2024 29th Dec. 2023 | 14pm CETFrom Guide to Business Owner 9th Jan. 2024 | 16pm CETChoose Your Business's Target Language12th Jan. 2024 | 14pm CET>>> Join a single workshop ($29) or join them all for only $87 (3 + 1 for free)!

150: Discover Your Ideal Wellness Business Model
Do you want to escape your 9-5 job and turn your passion for wellness into a fulfilling career? 💼🌿
You may dream of crafting a course, programme, or hosting a retreat, but how to get there seems unclear. 🤔💡
I know what it's like to feel challenged by the possibilities of crafting your business. Feeling overwhelmed trying to cater to everyone, or being pulled in too many directions. Finding focus and structure can be overwhelming. Especially if you keep comparing yourself to others and think that to stand out, you have to create something completely unique. 💭🌟
Building your wellness business doesn't begin with the end product. It starts with a crystal-clear understanding of your purpose, vision, and core values. 🌈✨🔍
In this epsiode, I help you explore the business models for wellpreneurs to no longer chase every idea or waste time on trying to figure it all out by yourself. 🌿💡
In the meantime, take the QUIZ: 'What Type of Wellness Business Suits You? 🚀
... and receive tailored advice for building your purpose-driven career, aligned with your lifestyle and energy levels.

149: How to Make Purpose-Driven Business Decisions
In 2019, I embraced my purpose: guiding multilingual yoga teachers to build an international career.Following my purpose meant I had to learn a lot, because now I wouldn’t only teach, but also run a business! 👩🏽💻I was excited! But also felt overwhelmed as I took on a new role with tasks and responsibilities I didn’t have experience with. Think of creating a website, managing softwares for automated class schedules, and establishing habits and routine to manage projects. I needed to learn how to attract people on social media and decide in what language I wanted to operate.There were a lot of decisions to make, but I didn't know which would be right.You as well, may hear yourself think "What if I make the wrong decision?". 🤯
As a response, you may ask what others would do. Everyone tells you something different, making you question or doubt if it’s all worth it.I know how much pressure you feel making decisions on your entrepreneurial journey. But, if there’s one thing I learned, it's that ‘the right decision’ always is purpose-driven. 💫I know you have a life full of experiences that are ready to be brought to life in your purpose-driven career. All you need is to believe in yourself and receive support, structure and strategies to make decisions that feel right!In this session I’ll share with you how to make purpose-driven business decisions!__________________________________🥁 Launch & Expand Your International Career

148: Revolutionise Your Purpose to Build a Sustainable International Yoga Career
Among our community members I see the desire to quit the office job that doesn’t fulfil you; break free from doing what you think you’re expected to do; stop taking on jobs only to pay the bills; or find ways to stop playing small, because your inner critic doesn’t fully believe you’re capable to choose the life you want (yet).I know that you’re more than ‘just’ a yoga teacher and that you have a package of skills, experiences and expertise that make you you. A package that you can turn into your business or career. To build the life you want, experience freedom and fulfilment and do purpose-driven work.

145: From Yoga Teacher to Business Owner: Transition with Ease
Today, it’s easier than ever before to become your own boss. Especially for yoga teachers, starting an entrepreneurial journey opens up a world of opportunities. 🌍✈️🌅When I embarked on this journey myself about 5 years ago, I had no idea what I was doing or how to do it.What I had very clear for myself was that teaching yoga classes alone wasn’t going to fulfil me. I had an extreme drive to help yogis and teachers expand their career opportunities by learning English and the business tools to build and expand their own international careers.I wanted to help others, while at the same time have the freedom to work whenever and travel wherever. To work on my terms, sharing and teaching what I’m most passionate about. I knew I had to break free from teaching saturated class schedules, which for me were a combination of English and yoga classes. And grow the courage to quit the safety of my monthly payrolls 🙅🏽, but start for myself. 🙌🏼In the next months, I’ll share more like this to help you become your own boss too!Expect to learn about the tools and systems I’ve tried; what works and what doesn’t. I’ll help you prevent making the mistakes I made. And I’ll share the elements that will help you build the foundation of your own international career so that you too can quit the job that doesn’t fulfill you and instead experience freedom and fulfillment by sharing your passions within the field of yoga and wellness. ✨🤞🏽I’m here to support you transition from being a teacher to business owner with ease; offering clarity, structure and strategies! 🚀So today let's first speak about the transition!My intention is to help you build awareness of the shifts you have to make becoming a thriving yoga business owner. 🤗P.S. If you’re ready for more, stay tuned for the details about our upcoming workshop series: "Launch your international career: yoga business foundations”. This will be your opportunity to dive deeper into the world of entrepreneurship and set yourself up for success in 2024! 🌏

But if you're new to our community, I want to quickly explain why it's my biggest aim for you is to teach with authenticity:The number one thing that will boost your confidence is the ability to express yourself truly. 🪄That means knowing who you are, your principles and boundaries, embracing your accent, and choosing the words that match your personality, interests, style of voice, and style of yoga.Learning 'the right words' goes much further than learning yogic vocabulary or applying correct grammar rules. A fast fix doesn't exit. It takes practise and open mindedness to repetition.No one will do the work for you, but I can guarantee that the clearer you are on the words you actually need, the easier it'll be to stay focussed and disciplined.In this session, I'll help you choose the right words that match your teacher identity! 🪪I truly believe everyone, YOU too are capable of teaching yoga in English with confidence and authenticity and make a positive impact on your students! 🧘🏽♂️🌍I know that for many of you, teaching yoga in English may feel very far away right now, but we're here to offer you a supportive and enjoyable learning experience with language activities that match your unique needs as a yoga teacher.If you want to define your teacher identity, find your voice and learn the right vocabulary for you...>>> Check out the Teach Yoga in English Starters Bundle! Here you get access to 4 self-paced courses to:* Define your personality, values and boundaries, unique skills and qualities.* Learn how to speak and teach in English while still feeling yourself* Optimise your vocabulary learning with our interactive dictionary that provides you with all the words you need for yogic settings.This bundle helps you keep your language learning focussed on the words you truly need for your job as a yoga teacher. 🤩

143: How to break free from ineffective cueing translations
Imagine you're teaching a yoga class in English, and you want to guide your students effectively, but you're stuck with inaccurate translated cues.Or perhaps you wonder, "Why don't my students do what I cued when I say..." 🤯Have you ever found yourself in this situation? You're not alone!Cues go beyond instructions. They don't only guide movement but also offer opportunities for exploration. 🪞✨ Cues should be given with intention to communicate effectively and compassionately.However, when learning to teach in English your cues may turn into direct translations.Direct translations can be inaccurate, non-inclusive, and inauthentic. 😳The words, phrases, or cues you use can get lost in translation, leading to confusion or misinterpretation by your students.That's why in this training, I'll help you break free from common language challenges to focus your vocabulary learning on what you genuinely need. By doing so, you can learn to express yourself authentically and confidently in English. 🧘♀️Together we'll unpack the things that influence your translation process. Including the unique language and terminology specific to yoga, but also grammar, word sorts, and sentence structures.🌟________________________________Want to learn more and follow the steps I shared in this training?Take the quiz: What's Your Style of Teaching VoiceEnrol in the Teach Yoga in English Essentials to learn cueing formulas.Or opt for the Teach Yoga in English Starters Bundle to embody your teacher's identity, find your voice and learn all the vocabulary that matches your personal style. ❤️____________________________________________________

142: Time Management Tools for Self-Employed Yoga Teachers
What do you know about the '90-Day Year'? 👀
As a dedicated teacher and ambitious yoga business owner, I want to say yes to every exciting opportunity. I have lots of ideas and once it’s in my head I want to get it done. My calendar and to-do lists often overflow. 😵💫
At the end of 2021 this lead to burnout which meant I had to cancel my classes, workshops, and social life for 4 months. I was devastated and thought this setback would ruin my career. I thought my students would lose interest, forget about me and move on with a different teacher. I’m not afraid of competition, but I do love my students and I didn’t want to lose them. 😰
In this time, I learned to reorganise myself. To say yes to new projects, but trust ‘divine timing’. To be patient, but stay committed and work on one project at the time. I also discovered Todd Herman's '90-Day Year' concept. The idea behind it is that you break down goals and plans into 90-day cycles instead of a yearly planning. The beauty of this for us as yoga teachers is that it allows us to work with the seasonal cycles in nature. 🌿🌞🍁❄️
Why am I sharing this?
Because I know that you are driven and ambitious too! 🔥🌈
That you have big plans and goals for building your yoga career!
You want to turn your 'hobbies' into paid activities so that you can quit the job that no longer fulfils you, but make a profitable income sharing your passions for yoga and wellness. To make that dream a reality, you need clarity, structure and discipline.
Building a career out of your passions doesn't happen by accident, it requires you to do some work. What that work means for you personally depends on your goals. 📍But, what I can help you with today are some time-management tools to avoid overwhelm and spend your energy wisely.
know that I'm here to guide you and meet you on every step in your continuing education journey. 🤗
Whether you just finished YTT, are ready to teach in English too, or know it’s time to make a bigger impact and reach a global audience, I'm here to help you create your ideal yoga career!

141: Yoga Teacher Mindset Hacks: Turn Your Dream Career into Reality
When I completed my Yoga Teacher Training, I felt inadequate and unprepared to call myself a yoga teacher. The amount of information left me feeling overwhelmed. I realised that teaching yoga required a whole new skillset. From mastering the vocabulary for effective cues to understanding anatomy and body mechanics. I had to learn how to craft sequences adaptable to every student and read the energy in the room, as well as adjusting class plans to student requests and answering questions I didn't always have answers to.
Teaching yoga is so much more than giving cues and instructions. 💫
We're not alone in underestimating the journey to becoming a yoga teacher... but I also know how fulfilling, rewarding and satisfying it feels to finally feel confident about who you are, what you teach and have your students leave your class already excited to join the next. 🤩
That's why I am dedicated to empowering you. 💪
You know that our mission is to make your international career a reality. We're here to help you overcome from self-doubt and linguistic barriers, and navigate the challenges of building your yoga business.
We've seen our graduates pursue incredible careers, from yoga-safari businesses to online memberships, coaching programmes and retreats abroad. The possibilities for your career are endless and it's my job to help you break free from conventional expectations.
I want you to discover a path that aligns perfectly with your lifestyle, energy, and vision. 🪄
With 1.5 billion English speakers globally, the sky is truly the limit when you teach yoga in English. 🌍

140: 6 Sequencing Principles: write, design and theme a well rounded yoga practice
How confident do you feel about creating a sequence? 👀Do you catch yourself thinking:'I wish my sequences were more inspiring, they lack imagination''I always teach the same sequence, because it's the only one I know well''I wish I knew how to theme my classes so I could teach more than just the asanas'.'I want to teach using more spiritual elements, but I feel stuck designing a sequence'.I know that you may feel this way, because most yoga teachers feel this way after finishing YTT.You're oversaturated with knowledge, but don't feel ready to use it. You feel inadequate to even teach the simplest things. Apart from not knowing the right vocabulary to cue, you may feel that your sequences lack structure. You improvise but actually don't know what you're doing. All of this can make you lack confidence in your teaching skills as a whole.Therefore, to keep my promise of helping you teach with confidence, I decided that apart from learning the right words to cue effectively, our courses need more. To me that means training and practice opportunities to improve your sequencing techniques and gain the skill to build a well rounded and transformative class experience for your students.We don't focus on English alone! 🧐The Teach Yoga in English Journey is an all round continuing education programme.Some of the teachers that joined before were surprised with what they learned. They expected an English course, but in reality received so much more than that.Apart from language and communication I offer you the chance to learn, develop and improve your overall teacher skillset.You'll develop your authenticity and ability to write, design, and theme expert sequences.Sequences that you can use again and again without feeling repetitive. And sequences that you can adjust to your students' needs on the spot. See it as your YTT 2.0 (which even includes 50 continuing education hours on the Intensive programme)!

Every teacher is unique and so is the way you express yourself!As a yoga teacher your authenticity is one of the most important factors for genuine communication and deeper connections with your students.When starting to teach yoga, you'll soon realise that the way you speak is the gateway to effective classes and student engagement.

138: Your Journey to a Fulfilling International Career
The teachers in our community are working hard on building their international teaching career.
There are teachers that:
Host their own retreats or work with retreat organisations worldwide.
Have their own membership of online classes, workshops and events.
Moved abroad and started their own yoga studio in another country.
Are teacher trainers and translated their YTTs to English to reach a global audience.
Created their own courses and coaching programmes, serving their students in-person and online.
So let me ask you... What does your ideal teaching career look like?
Right now, you may lack the structure and clear steps to making your ideal career a reality. It can feel overwhelming, intimidating or even impossible. I get it - it takes some work, but having helped hundreds of multilingual yoga teachers pursue their dreams, I have gained a lot of insight into what it truly takes and I know it is possible for you too! 🚀
I don't believe in overnight success and I certainly don't believe that there's only one way to Rome.
I believe that everyone's unique. You have your own experiences, approach, learning style, commitments and unique goals.
But I do believe that there are some essential steps and those I'd like to share with you today.
The way you'll apply these steps require you to do some inner work. It's your responsibility to find the ways that suit you, because that way I can guarantee you'll stay focussed, motivated and disciplined to making your international career a reality and super fulfilling.

136: How to grow in your role as a yoga teacher
Every day is an opportunity to start something new or make changes.
The topic of today’s episode is inspired by some conversations I had in the last few days.
Many people (clients, co-workers, and friends) I spoke to said they feel stuck and doubtful in the last weeks. They feel disconnected and lost causing them to live on autopilot and neglect their goals.
They also described that deep down, they know they want to do something more meaningful. They want to grow, make progress, and feel more fulfilled, but find it difficult to make changes or are afraid that what they want will cost a lot of work or is impossible for them.
You may recognise you feel or have felt this way too. So today, I want to make space to help you reconnect to your path so that you can grow in your role as a yoga teacher and navigate the changes that come with it with more ease.

135: What to do when you feel disconnected & how to decide on your next steps!
How to stop postponing your ideal teaching career and decide on your next steps!
It’s August 2023 and we’re just past the middle of the year.
What goals did you set for yourself this year? And are you accomplishing them?
The days pass by, another week starts; time flies!
You may feel that time flies and notice you got distracted by all types of other things happening in your life. (Especially now that for many of us, it’s summer time!)
Distraction can cause you to feel unbalanced. Feeling unbalanced may result in losing focus. And not being focussed may make you forget about your goals and the things you want to achieve. All of that makes you feel unfulfilled or misaligned with your deepest desires.
In this episode, I want to help you
• Realign with your purpose
• Check in with your goals or set new objectives
• Get back on track and have a little more structure building your ideal life and career path
For this training, I've created a fillable reflection form so that you can make the most of the things I'll share with you.
This form will help you reflect on where you are, what's going well, and what you can do to realign with your purpose and take action. You can print the form or keep it as a digital doc for yourself.
>>> use the form here: https://forms.gle/m86tRpYDawDEbnqX7
You'll also help us get insight into what our community members need help with. Don't worry; we'll not share your information with anyone else and completing the form doesn't mean you need to enrol in any of our services.
This form is for you, to help you get back on track and find focus!

132: How to overcome the fear of speaking in English
The fear of speaking English is a common obstacle among language learners!
Expressing yourself in a language that’s not your own can make you feel extremely uncomfortable.
You may…
• Doubt you don’t know the right or enough words
• Fear people judge you on your accent or pronunciation
• Speak slow and feel bad about having to make people wait
• Be afraid that you sound childish and people think you’re less intelligent
All these things cause you to hold back and postpone whatever your goal of speaking English is. For most of you here, it causes you to delay your international career.
Because if you don’t learn to speak and practice to develop your speech for teaching yoga, you’ll keep…
• Postponing to look for jobs abroad
• Declining collaborations with people that don’t speak your language
• Saying no to international teaching offers like retreats
So, let’s dive in and find how you can overcome the fear of speaking English; feel comfortable, capable, fluent, and even yourself!
And with that, pursue your dream to teach yoga internationally!

131: 5 communication errors when teaching yoga in English
Today, let's chat about language and communication errors!
Specifically, I'd like to share 5 mistakes I see or hear almost every non-native English speaking yoga teacher make.
Mistakes are inevitable and I actually encourage you to make them. Making mistakes helps you get out of your comfort-zone. By making them you overcome shyness and can find out what you can do or say differently to express yourself clearer and more effectively.
But sometimes, we aren't aware of the mistakes we make and people 'forget' to tell or correct you. So, in this episode I want to help you understand what you possibly say wrong when teaching yoga in English, so that you can improve your communication with your students during and beyond your classes.

130: Money back & cancellation policies
After you’ve created your class schedule, set up your space to teach and start attracting new students it’s wise to establish your business politics, because you want to be prepared and protect yourself.It’s possible a student gets sick or unexpectedly has to change their plans which means they could cancel last-minute.It’s also possible students expected something differently from your classes or services or aren’t happy with their results.All of these things can cause unnecessary obstacles if you haven’t set up your refund and cancellation policies. So in this episode, let’s have a look at what type of things you can consider to cover yourself for these types of unexpected or unfortunate circumstances.Expect to learn about what:
your prices include
to add to your class and/or service descriptions
to consider for your refund policy
to consider for your cancellation policy
What type of yoga business suits you?Later this year, I’ll host a pilot course to help you create and set up your international teaching career!In that course we’ll look at all the things it involves to create your own offerings such as international retreats or online programmes, your visibility and how to attract students, but of course, your money mindset, refund and cancellation policies will be part of it too.If you’d like to find out what type of yoga business would suit you, take the quiz to find out your most ideal business model!

Optimise your class schedule without getting burnt out
Overcome teaching from a place of scarcity
Stop teaching random or general classes and instead teach what you absolutely love

126: How to find teaching practices without getting hired
In May, I shared with you 3 tricks to reprogramme your mindset for a lasting career.
In this training I focussed on ways in which you can transform the fears and limiting beliefs that stop you from believing in yourself, your skills, experience, and expertise. All of that with the aim to help you build a lasting career.
Thoughts and limiting beliefs cause you to lack confidence on a mental and emotional level. However, some of you describe to also suffer from the common 'chicken-or-egg situation'. And it goes like this:
"I know that to gain confidence in my teaching skills I need experience, but to gain teaching experience, I need to build confidence first."
Does that sound like you?
Then you may ask, where do I go from here?
In this episode I will give you all the answers and a clear idea of where to start. I'll explain how to gain practical experience to help you build confidence so that you gradually build and expand your own career.

Your transformation is our mission!
In this episode, learn about Carlos' English and yoga journey; why he became a teacher and what he learned working with Enga.
About Carlos:
I'm a young man who was born and raised in Maracaibo, a beautiful city with a gorgeous lake in the west of Venezuela. I don't like to use any labels to describe myself, but I'd like to share with you that I'm often defined as a knowledgeable, empathic and honest person; even though sometimes I can be straightforward and lazy since I'm just a human being with virtues and defects. And as many people these days I've changed careers from becoming a Mechanical Engineer, to an English Language Teacher and now I add to the list being a Yoga Instructor.If there's anything else that you should know about me, it's that you can count on me whenever you're in need of doing something to get better for you, or whoever we can help together.
Are you also ready to develop your English language skills for teaching yoga? Start here!

122: How to add mindfulness and meditation to your yoga classes
Over the past weeks, you've heard me talk about teaching beyond the asanas. I want you to feel confident teaching asana, but also offer more than that: a well-rounded experience!
One way to add more value to your classes and offer these 'well-rounded experiences' is... adding mindfulness and meditation practices!
Writing scripts for mindfulness and meditation practices, as a non-native English speaker, teaching in English, requires you to learn metaphorical language or language for imagination. Learning this type of language is the next level in your language learning and takes some time. But just as it requires skill, knowledge and practice of vocabulary, metaphors and imaginary language you can learn!
In this episode I'll explain how you can add mindfulness and meditation practices to your services and offerings.

120: The missing piece to your international career
In this episode, I’d like to share with you the missing piece to your international career.
Actually, there are a few missing pieces, but the first and most important one, as you can guess now, is receiving support and guidance with finding and developing your own voice (even more so, if you want to teach in a foreign language).
Finding your voice is step one of the 6-step process to becoming a confident and authentic English-speaking yoga teacher.
Your voice, as they call it in yoga, is the way you speak and what you communicate. This includes your tone of voice and also the type of language you use. You may have heard of the terms ‘use your voice’, ‘authentic voice’, ‘finding your voice’.
All of this refers to the development of becoming and expressing yourself as you are. The way you communicate and what you communicate. When finding your voice in a foreign language, it also refers to learning the type of language that matches your teaching style and personality, so that you can stay true to your natural way of being and communication, even when teaching in English.
It can be intimidating to teach in a foreign language, but since you’re here. I know you have a passion you want to share with the world. It’s time to do the work and kiss goodbye all your fears and insecurities.
Because remember, ’Teaching yoga in a foreign language is a sign of bravery!’
In this training, I'll share 7 steps to overcome practical challenges and common fears that stop you from finding your voice!

119: 3 tricks to reprogramme your mindset for a lasting career
In episode 118, I shared with you the mindset shifts needed to feel capable of teaching yoga.
I spoke about the reason 'why' you feel you aren't ready to teach yoga and unpacked 4 things that may cause you to lack confidence.
All of them are limiting beliefs.
It starts with a thought, which then makes you feel a certain way, which provokes another thought, and boom ... you’re in the cycle of negative thinking, doubting your skills, and feeding your own insecurities, which is absolutely not necessary!
As I finished that training, I realised that there's A LOT more I’d like to share about this topic so in this episode, I want to continue and give you 3 practical tricks to reprogramme your mindset for a lasting career.
Expect to find out
• How to leave the chicken and egg situation and actually get out there
• How to find safe teaching opportunities that will help you build confidence and feel capable
• 3 ways to overcome limited and negative thinking and shift your thoughts outward rather than in
P.S. Are your English language skills the reason for you to postpone your career?
Check our courses to shift your mindset and focus on what you need to learn to pursue your international teaching career.

118: Mindset Shifts to Feel Capable of Teaching Yoga
Time and time again I hear from teachers they're postponing their teaching career because they 'don't feel ready'.
The feeling of not feeling ready is caused by a negative thought pattern that's ruled by fears, lack of confidence, overthinking, or high expectations.
You became a yoga teacher for a reason. The reason why may not be ultra clear to you right now, but I bet it'll be as soon as you actually start teaching.
It's time to get out of your shell!
In this episode you'll discover what's holding you back and shift your mindset to feel capable of teaching yoga and build a sustainable career.
PS Are your English language skills the reason for you to postpone your career?
Check out the Teach Yoga in English Essentials - Mini-Course to shift your mindset and focus on what you need to learn to pursue your international teaching career.

117: English Grammar Revision for Effective Cues
When teaching yoga in a foreign language you're faced with many challenges.
First of all it takes time to find your voice and learn vocabulary to cue and instruct effectively.
The next challenge is to form sentences that are easy to understand for your students, easy to remember for you, but also clear, concise, accurate, and inclusive.
For that you need to have knowledge of three things:
a wide variety of yogic vocabulary
connotations and associations in terms of inclusivity and trauma-informed language
accurate and effective grammar structures for asana classes
In this training, I'll help you revise your grammar usage and knowledge for effective cues.
To enhance your grammar knowledge for effective cues

114: Outdated cues and how to unlearn them
The word 'outdated' refers to things that are old-fashioned.
Usually, old-fashioned is a word that describes something that is ancient, antique, obsolete, or out of date. Stuff that’s made in a different age; from materials we no longer use; things that aren’t anymore produced, or because we’ve found faster, more innovative ways. Just as production and consumption make advances, so do we people and so does language.
In the past you may have heard or learned certain cues. They made a lot of sense and you may have even started using them in your own classes. By now, you’ve heard them so often that you don’t even question the words anymore. However, due to social advances, research and revision, some of the cues you may use today are no longer accepted. Instead this type of outdated language is considered
• ineffective
• inaccurate
• non-inclusive
• offensive
With this episode, I want to help you understand why some cues are no longer safe to use and how you can recognise similar phrases to make your cueing language up-to-date and appropriate.

113: 3 words you can no longer use teaching yoga in English
Every day, I get messages from people to ask me about ‘how to choose the right words' for teaching yoga in English.
Learning a foreign language takes time and from time to time it can be confusing.
To make a language your own and feel confident teaching/speaking in it, there’s a lot to think of, remember, and study. Especially in the beginning, I can only imagine how overwhelming it is trying to learn everything at once.
In this episode, I won’t explain all the words you need to know. Instead I want to help you ‘unlearn’ 3 words you no longer want to use teaching yoga in English. I'll explain a little bit about the difference between English grammar and yogic language and I’ve got a little task for you to think about words and phrases that you can use instead.

112: What's a well-rounded sequence
Many teachers in our community complain that their Yoga Teacher Training didn’t prepare them enough to write sequences or that they didn’t receive enough practice time to learn to write them. And, I know how much your ability to write high quality sequences would boosts your confidence.
Themed sequences that feel logical and intuitive.
Sequences that...
you can use again and again, without feeling repetitive.
are well-rounded and offer great development of strength, flexibility, sthira and sukha.
inspire your students to continue their spiritual journey.
provide your students with enough to learn.
Or simply put, sequences your students love to practice, and you love to teach.
Sequencing is a skill and just as learning vocabulary, it requires practice. On the English for Yoga Teachers Course, I’ve dedicated an entire module to learn, develop, and practice your sequencing skills. It’s one of my favourite modules, because this is where I see most of our teachers make massive progress in their confidence building and owning their authentic expression as a yoga teacher.
But what really is sequencing?
What does a sequence consist of?
And what is a well-rounded sequence?
In this episode, I’ll give you answers to all those questions!
