6 Signs Yoga or Pilates Teacher Training Is For You

Are you thinking about taking the leap into yoga or Pilates teacher training to either lead your own classes or deepen your personal practice?

Whether you’ve been practicing for years or you’re a few months in, yoga or Pilates teacher training can be the most exhilarating experience of your life! Before you jump headfirst into the world of teaching, we have curated a list of 6 signs to look out for to know if you’re ready.

1. You are passionate about Yoga or Pilates

If you find yourself constantly talking about the benefits of Yoga or Pilates to anyone who will listen, and convince your friends to skip their weekend mimosa brunch for a Saturday morning class, then it’s time to consider teacher training! Teaching gives you a chance to spread your love for these practices to the world and share the joy and benefits of yoga or Pilates.

2. You’re open to feedback 

Becoming a great teacher means being open to feedback and learning from those who are more experienced in the game. At BodyMindLife, our teacher trainings are a safe space where our seasoned facilitators will guide you in becoming the best teacher and practitioner possible. By being open to guidance and committed to improving your practice, teacher training can help you enhance your technical skills and build the confidence to lead a room with style and ease.

3. You have a thirst for knowledge

Teacher training is not just about learning how to teach; it’s also an opportunity to deepen your knowledge of yoga or Pilates. If you’re curious about the origins and intricacies of each practice, teacher training will be like a treasure trove of knowledge and insights waiting to be unlocked. Not only will you transform your own life, but you’ll be able to share that transformation with others too.

4. You’re committed to your practice

Teaching is a big responsibility, and it requires a commitment to your practice. If you’re dedicated to showing up on the mat or the reformer, even on the days when you don’t feel like it, you’re already on your way to becoming a great teacher.

5. You’re ready for a challenge

Teacher training can be intense, challenging, and demanding. But, if you’re ready to rise to the occasion and put in the hard work, you’ll emerge on the other side with a fresh set of skills, a deeper connection to your practice, and a sense of accomplishment that’s hard to beat.

6. You’re passionate about helping others

At its core, teaching is about helping others. If you’re passionate about helping people find their own path to health, wellness, and self-discovery, yoga or Pilates teacher training can be a powerful tool to help you make a positive impact on the world.
