I started teaching yoga exactly 10 years ago on Sep 5th 2011. I am extremely grateful to the opportunities to teach and all my students over the last 1 decade. This has given a purpose, a vision to my life and I couldn't ask for more. Over 15000 hours of classes and all of them have started on time except 1 class this year that I missed. So I can proudly say 99.95% punctual.
Apart from the punctuality factor, if you ask me what else am I proud of in my journey, I would say the peaceful progress of my students. I have seen students of different backgrounds, different fitness levels, different goals, different health conditions, different age groups etc. While some of them have deeply connected, some of them have been extremely judgemental too. No matter who they were, my focus and priority has been to help them peacefully progress to the best of my abilities. While I have been able to help most of them, honestly with some the teacher student chemistry didn't click. You cannot make everybody happy nor can you always live up to everybody's expectations. Nevertheless everything has been a learning experience for me.
As a teacher I have seen more than 60 of my students start as beginners, grow in their practice over time and become teachers eventually. I am extremely proud of them and wish them all the very best in their careers. Till date over 400 yoga teachers would have experienced at least 1 class with me.
Becoming a teacher is just the beginning of the journey... There is so much more to do and achieve together in the health and fitness dimensions...
Do you have a goal that I can help you with? Let me know in the comments...
