Planning a series of classes or workshops can bring some powerful benefits:
We make it easier for you to plan workshops or series, which can help you to secure student commitments and extra revenue. We save you planning time so that you can go deeper into the areas where you add the most value. The world needs you to be sharing the inspirational teachings that you love to share!
The standard process for scheduling students and taking payment has been for a yoga studio to handle registration on behalf of their teachers. Phone and online registration via a studio has been, of course, the primary way that students have signed up for workshops for some time. And, of course, this is still a clear and simple option for many teachers who have studio connections.
In addition, some teachers may choose to handle their own online registration. It appears the tools to do so are increasing and we hope to learn more to share with you. Have you tried schedulicity? We are not familiar with it nor have we gotten teacher feedback but they seem to be targeting yoga teachers. Do you have other tools you use? We encourage you to ask your colleagues, test out a tool, and let us know what you think.
We’ve got 20 different topic suggestions (in our member area) here. We’ve broken out the topics into series lasting anywhere from 4 to 12 weeks, and we include quick links to teaching content. For example, perhaps you would like to offer a series that covers asana categories or families. In a series of 4 to 8 classes, you could cover such topics as:
The links above are for really spectacular member content, but even without membership, you can get Student Handouts in our Store. See samples and more information below.
We offer professionally-designed student handouts for various series topics. The content is top-notch and will add value to your offering.
