Episode Description from the Publisher

In Part 1 of this series, I talked about why many yoga teachers finish their training expecting to feel confident, only to find that teaching still feels harder than they expected (and takes a lot more planning time than they thought). In this episode, we shift the conversation toward what actually helps teachers feel more confident. Instead of focusing on accumulating more information or taking more trainings, confidence often grows from developing a few key teaching skills and simplifying what you focus on when you teach. In this episode, I talk about: • a clear format for cueing you can use to make things feel more natural • how teaching a Signature Sequence can dramatically reduce the stress of planning classes  • why understanding movement is more useful than memorizing anatomy terms • and how shifting your mindset about your role as a teacher can change how you show up in class If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed or unsure, this episode will help you start focusing on the things that actually move the needle. I also share a short training that walks you through how to create your own Signature Sequence so you can spend less time planning classes and feel more confident teaching.
