Your work should be transformational for your yoga students AND FOR YOU
80 million people say they are interested in starting yoga. However, when trying to get started, the vast majority, well, just can’t.
The way yoga currently is being taught, only the fit, young, and able-bodied need apply.
So the question is: What is the MOST effective way to teach every body how to enjoy the many health benefits of yoga—without triggering a pretzel panic attack? And, how can you ensure that they come back, again and again?
The key lies not just in what you teach, but how you teach!
Drop-in, mixed level classes are pretty much a formula for failure for anyone who isn't already fit and/or doesn't have a 'yoga body'.
To set students up for success, you need to teach in a format that enables YOU to address their individual needs, and enables THEM to progress systematically and steadily.
Towards Yoga 2.0: Co-Creating the Future of Yoga
Most likely, you practice yoga because you have experienced the immense benefits yoga has to offer. Yoga literally, is one way we can change the body to change the mind: By learning to work more consciously with the body, the fascia and our nervous system in yoga, we can greatly enhance the benefits of our own practice and our benefits to our students.
The world greatly needs skilled, experienced yoga teachers.
Thousands of yoga teachers are already offering their services online. But to build a successful teaching practice online both during and after the pandemic, you have to niche down, i.e., you have to offer something that few other teachers are offering. This is what you will learn in the Yoga Wellness Educator course.
Discover the Tremendous Healing Power of Movement: Become a Yoga 2.0 Wellness Educator and Learn How to Empower Others with Skills for Self-Healing & Self Care
You didn't become a yoga teacher to spend your days running from class to class, never knowing how many students will show up, and worrying about whether or not you will even cover your expenses at the end of the month.
Nor did you think that sustaining a successful yoga teaching practice would mean working crazy hours and barely having enough time for your own practice and to rest and recharge.
And you sure as heck didn’t go through years of training just to see your profession go into decline with the lingering effects of the COVID pandemic.

Here is the truth about creating a sustainable, successful yoga teaching practice:
The work of every yoga teacher is needed. Your work is so powerful. There is only one of you and you are SO needed on this planet.
But here is the thing: Most yoga teachers are using an outdated formula for teaching: Mixed level drop-in classes. With this format, you never know who will show up, and if you will be able to pay your bills at the end of the month.
You have a unique opportunity. Visionary teachers are stepping out of the outdated pattern of teaching yoga that is holding everyone else back.
They are adapting a sustainable and implementable approach that reaches a much wider range of students and taps into markets for yoga hardly anyone is covering.
They are at the forefront of implementing new research findings into the fascia - the connective tissue of the body - which are literally transforming our understanding of how the body functions and what it takes to stay healthy and retain full functionality throughout life.
They are benefitting from learning new approaches to teaching that creates continuity, keeps students coming back, and importantly, meets the needs of students on a whole new level.
IMAGINE A WORLD WHERE YOU DON'T HAVE TO WORRY AND STRESS AND WHERE YOU...
- Have learned important tools for optimizing health and wellness, and you apply them to enhance your own quality of life as well as in your yoga teaching.
- Are a pioneer in reaching students who are unable to take up yoga the way it is currently being taught. This includes the 80+ million who are interested in starting yoga, and are looking for teachers who can serve their needs.
- Have carved out a niche in your local marketplace. You have become known as the go-to teacher who truly cares about individualizing yoga practice and meeting the needs of every student in the class and have a strong, regular following of yoga students.
- You are part of a network of like-minded yoga teachers! This is an active group of amazing people who are walking the same path as you!
- Feel confident! You have a solid approach to your yoga teaching practice and all the skills to execute it with ease. You feel you are offering something unique to your students, and in return, you are getting a lot back. No more second-guessing whether you have the right approach to helping students with issues in their practice or spending hours on research. You got this!

What's Different?
The 3 Elements of Building a Sustainable Yoga Teaching Practice
What’s the biggest misunderstanding in yoga today?
That you can just go into any yoga studio and start practicing yoga. You don’t just start walking. You don’t just start riding your bike. You don’t just start driving your car.
You have to learn it.
Yoga is no different. Yoga isn’t just about putting your body into shapes – it’s about so much more: Developing body awareness and proprioception, learning to live more healthily. This doesn't happen overnight. But unfortunately, the way yoga is taught today, most students never learn how to gain the full benefits of their practice.
Learn the 3 keys to building a sustainable yoga teaching practice:
Part I: Teaching Privates
Part II: Teaching Courses
Part III: Yoga as Alchemy
Teaching privates to niche markets is probably one of the largest underutilized opportunities for yoga teachers - pandemic or not.
But where do you start? And how do you make sure you offer the students what they truly need?
Learn a system for teaching an 8-part series of privates that will have your students become permanent clients!
Tap into the $1 trillion wellness market by learning to teach yoga wellness courses in areas of the greatest demand and need.
Learn a system for building your own courses, developing a curriculum and getting the word out.
Learn how to marry cutting-edge science with ancient yogic knowledge to more fully harness the transformational power of yoga.
Learn how to integrate key discoveries in the areas of fascia, myofascial release, nervous system regulation and personal transformation in your teaching to offer students the full benefits of yoga.
What Does It Take to Build a Successful, Sustainable, AND Profitable Yoga Teaching Practice?
Learn How to Serve Your Students Needs in These 3 Steps
Step 1: Maximize Students' Progress: Individualize Your Teaching - Learn a System for Teaching Yoga in an 8-part Series of Privates
• Learn a system for offering an 8-part series of privates, which counteracts structural and postural aging - a main issue for most people over 50 and even younger.
• Become an expert in Gudmestad Anatomy-based Yoga Teaching Methodology for teaching yoga to EVERY body
• Learn how to observe what's going on in a student's body, so you know which musculoskeletal imbalances they have. These affect well-being and energy in the short term, and they often are precursors to chronic pain issues long term.
• On this basis, you will also know why a student struggles in a particular pose and how to best address the issue.
• Learn how to create a plan to help students work with each individual issue in their practice.
Step 2: Create Continuity: Build a Strong Following of Repeat Students - Learn a System for Teaching Yoga in Courses
• Never again wonder how many students will be showing up to your class! Learn the essential new skills to attract – and retain – students and keep them coming back, month after month, year after year!
• Learn how to stand out in your local marketing by offering something truly unique and developing skills that make you stand out. No more competing in a crowded marketplace!
• Learn how to structure a curriculum for your own courses!
• Get a pre-made, ready-to-go curriculum for teaching two 8-part courses for two of the most in demand wellness topics:
Spatial Medicine I: Yoga for Structural Aging and Posture Improvement
Spatial Medicine II: Yoga for Osteoporosis and Functional Aging
Step 3: Yoga as Alchemy: Spatial Medicine and the Tremendous Healing Power of Movement - Empower Others with Skills for Self-Healing & Self Care
Studies show that movement in general and yoga specifically offers some of the greatest tools for enhancing wellness and reducing symptoms of ill health.
• Learn to marry the latest advances in modern science with ancient yogic wisdom.
• Discover how new insights into fascia - the connective tissue of the body - is literally turning everything we knew about the body upside down.
• Learn myofascial release techniques to enhance fascial health and resilience.
• Learn how to integrate this new knowledge into your own practice and teaching to create greater soft tissue flexibility, slow aging-related loss of mobility, and foster greater emotional and mental resilience.
What Past Students Say:
I am just finishing teaching my first four-week session on Posture Improvement and it was a great experience! The class filled in a week and a half with two on the waiting list.
This course has been a confidence-builder and equipper for me. I am learning through so many avenues, including my teaching of the material and look forward to building on that over time. I would also add that the class had a lot of fun together and we may continue with occasional classes over time.
Gold stars to the Yoga U crew!!!
~Carolyn E.
When I started teaching the first course I learned in the training, several participants told me after Week 2 (Stretch) that they felt a noticeable difference in their bodies which they did not have after Week 1.
What is helpful with this material is knowing the theme of the class that is part of the overall curriculum for the courses I'm teaching and exactly what I am trying to accomplish progressively in each class. This enables me to easily add (and leave out) some things as I keep awareness on the goals of each class.
~Cathy G.
When Julie said that so many teachers say "I can see something is wrong, but I don't know what it is and I don't know how to fix it," I connected to that. My 200 hour teacher training was what I consider very basic. And that is to be expected in the first 200 hours. I am so excited to learn more through this training. I want nothing more than to help my students. I think it's why we all become yoga instructors. We are helpers at our very nature.
At 52 years old and a new yoga teacher, it is often overwhelming to be made aware of the volume of information that I don't know. This course gives me enough information that I can begin to teach in the way that you promote - being able to teach people who need yoga but are unable to access it because of the way it is being taught today.
~Susan B.
This presentation is helping me to connect the dots from all my other varied yoga trainings and has given me so much more confidence. The size of each module/lesson is perfect as it gives me time to absorb information before building on it. The handouts and video workshops are an invaluable addition to my yoga resources.
Having the scheduled online mentoring really helps to personalize this experience. It’s also a great way to bond with other students. I’ll never stop being a student of Yoga, especially having YogaU so readily available and accessible to my lifestyle. I can log on and learn at any time of day.
This Yoga Wellness Certification is a perfect blend of science, art form, practicality and the magic one experiences in the (virtual) presence of the right teacher! My heart is open to you all, I’m just loving this.
