I’ve been teaching yoga full time for 20 years, and most of that time I taught at least 15 private yoga sessions each week; for a decade, that number was closer to 25 per week!
I have a lot of experience in teaching private sessions! And when you’ve been doing something that often for that long, you start to develop some specific opinions... or, I certainly did!

how encouraging commitment is beneficial for your student AND your business
why every student should feel like a “difficult” student
