Teaching Considerations
Make sure to teach to all levels
- Find out who is new to Aerial Yoga before class
- Tell everyone to go at their own pace and not feel pressured to do anything they are not ready for or comfortable with
- Check out body language and read the room. Look for people who are uncomfortable, or bored
- If the majority of the class is struggling with something, abort and move on to something else
- Always review the moves with new students and allow the more experienced students to go ahead and practice while you are assisting others
- You may want to give two different options for beginners and intermediate levels
Teach themed classes
- You may not want to do this all the time but you can add a themed class that has a specific focus. It could be directed toward different body parts such as back, hips, neck, etc. Or it could be based on a word or phrase like “Limitless”, or “Being Present”.
