Yoga Instructor Salary - How to Make a Living Teaching?

When I first started teaching yoga, everyone had an opinion about my career. Some people told me to teach workshops, others said I needed to franchise a studio, and most people told me it just wasn’t going to work long term.
The wrong advice can set you on a path of failure and frustration, and worse, it could even put you off teaching altogether. If you’re hesitating right now, this is a good sign and it means you’re making careful decisions.

Great video. I’m just the chronic pain guy. I recently started yoga. You’re right, the yoga instructor is key. I still have chronic pain but I do move a little better. I was hit by a car while riding a motorcycle but I do not make excuses. I saw your info on Facebook. I even mentioned your info to my yoga instructor and friends. Thank you for caring! I appreciate your efforts to help anyone who seeks help. 👍🏾

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Thanks B - hope your pain improves.

[@Divanessyoga]

Agreed that changing our mindset is key! Great tips, thank you!

[@sylviamb2504]

This was a game changer to hear, because I am one of those who is on the journey to complete my 200HR YTT, and I am overwhelmed not only by the amount of information and studying I've been doing, but also am one of those that keeps saying "I am not ________!". I may need to save this one so I can come back to listening again, but I want to say thank you so much Lucas for putting some sense into this insecurity of mine! 🙏

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Glad you liked the video, Sylvia! Just keep on chasing your goals and know there's a community of people who feels the same way before and overcame them. -YOGABODY Team

Thank you♡

You have the most soothing voice.

Thank you!

[@leonardgrant6876]

I am a yoga teacher and always in shock that you will learn inside yoga teacher schools a lot about yoga except the 2nd most important staff and that is marketing and what you will also not get are those skills to create and hold group of people willing pay for the class.

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Couldn't agree more...

[@EleniyamaYoga]

Great video. Still I'm thinking aren't there too many new teachers that came already in the last few years? Isn't it hard for students starting out with Yoga to find the best teacher for them?

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Hello Eleniyama - I know about 120 studio owners. Every single one is constantly looking to hire better teachers. Are there LOTS of teachers? Yes, but most attended personal growth oriented courses - that is amazing personally, but not so practice professionally. Short answer: no, there has been a shortage of highly trained teachers my entire career (20 years).

[@prafullacpandey]

Yoga could also learn Ayurveda; it would help them to earn extra ;

[@DMALLARD100]

is online yoga teacher training a good option? Can you recommend a school if so?

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Thanks for your interest. I'm biased of course, but I'm super excited by all our courses (yogabody.com).

[@MisterEE100]

Great video, but whoever edited your video needs to spell the word "connection" correctly at 1:21 in the video.

[@YOGABODY.Official]

oops, thank you!

As a yoga teacher, What am I not seeing? How do I tap into the market?

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Hi Karla! To tap into the market, consider diversifying your classes, engaging on social media, and offering online sessions. Networking with other yoga professionals can also help. - YOGABODY Team

[@El-Camino-de-Matteo]

Is it possible to make a living teaching online if I am living abroad? I am interested in your YTT but hesitant as I want earn remotely in South America.

[@YOGABODY.Official]

Teaching yoga online can be a viable option for earning income remotely, even while living abroad. - YOGABODY Team

[@El-Camino-de-Matteo]

@@YOGABODY.Official Will your YTT program help me with the business aspects of creating an online presence or class program?

[@irmakalember3709]

Do yoga teachers make good money in spas and Health clubs?

[@YOGABODY.Official]

It's really up to what is discussed between the teacher and places like those. The goal is to put up your own studio or do classes with a studio or offer an online class.
