MODULE 2
Teach With Purpose: Intention Setting Like a Rockstar
March 31, April 1, 2, 19, & 23
$425
Intention-driven yoga classes are the most memorable, powerful, and impactful classes out there and will be the single most important skill to develop as a teacher. The intent is the deeper work your students are doing during class (not just the yoga poses). The intent is the vehicle necessary so your students can master those life-changing skills that live long after the yoga class ends. The intent is how you create little nuggets of wisdom and inspiration that set your classes apart from everyone else and leave your teaching style and your classes unforgettable.
In this training you will learn to:
❍ Pick a theme and intent that lights you up, turns you on, and inspires your students to go deeper.
❍ Bake in measurable moments of success for your students to master the intent by using my simple 4-Step Process to break down the intent into the HOW (so your students aren't left confused or frustrated trying to figure it out on their own).
❍ Weave the intent throughout the entire arc of the class by strategically sequencing your HOW-TO cues in advance so you can focus on teaching rather than trying to come up with something to say on the fly.
❍ Make the intent relevant to the poses (not just some nice thing to say to your students) so the yoga mat becomes the laboratory to practice the intent as much as the asana.
❍ Provide endless nuggets of wisdom and inspiration for your students to take the intent off the mat and into their "real" life where it matters most.
This Module includes:
❍ An Online Course Portal, jam-packed with every nugget of intention-setting and weaving wisdom I have distilled from over 25 years of mentoring yoga teachers for reference and inspiration.
❍ 25+ hours of live instruction on Zoom (replay available) for implementation, questions, feedback, and support (see schedule below).
❍ 2 Group Mentoring Sessions for implementation, teaching feedback, and Q&A.
❍ My celebrated, time-tested Intention Setting Blueprint.
❍ My simple Intention Weaving Guide with step-by-step instructions for setting the intent and then anchoring the intent throughout the body of the class in a way that feels relevant, relatable, and fun!
❍ Dozens of sample classes and templates to practice and teach for inspiration.

MODULE 3
Embodied Communication: Clear & Confident Cueing
May 5, 6, 7, 17, and 21
$425
You are not alone if you are starting to realize that putting into words what want your students to do and feel is much harder than you thought.
Your favorite teacher makes it seem so easy:
❍ They use their voice, body, and energy to command the room.
❍ They cue with passion and purpose to convey a huge range of emotions with ease.
❍They magically cue the one thing you needed to hear at the moment to keep you focused and inspired as if they could read your mind.
❍ They make every student feel safe by simultaneously cueing the entire class and offering cues to specific students without skipping a beat.
Clear and confident cueing is the one thing that will make or break your teaching yet most teachers struggle with it. When done well (clear, concise, active, embodied, personalized) your classes are safe, inspiring, and accessible (leaving your students empowered and happy). When done poorly (confusing, meandering, passive, inauthentic) your classes are unsafe, injury-prone, and confusing (leaving your students frustrated and discouraged).
You will learn to:
❍ Speak with clarity and feeling so that every cue is clear, concise, and meaningful.
❍ Build confidence in your voice so your students hang on to your every word.
❍ Use your body to convey and support what you say so your words have resonance.
❍ Speak with feeling so what you say is meaningful and authentic.
❍ Read the energy of the room and tailor what you say to what you see to keep your classes injury free.
❍ Create the most inclusive and accessible classes so every student feels seen, safe, and supported.
This Module includes:
❍ An Online Course Portal, jam-packed with every nugget of cueing and communication wisdom I have distilled from over 25 years of mentoring yoga teachers for reference and inspiration.
❍ 25+ hours of live instruction on Zoom (replay available) for implementation, questions, feedback, and support (see schedule below).
❍ 2 Group Mentoring Sessions for implementation, teaching feedback, and Q&A.
❍ The Liquid Gold Communicator, your training guide and cheat sheet for communicating with confidence.
❍ Asana Index with detailed alignment cues, modifications, and contraindications for over 150 poses
