How to judge whether a yoga teacher is professional?
At present, there are many yoga instructors in the yoga instructor market, all of which are mechanically copied. Training institutions like China produce thousands of such yoga instructors every month, which are distributed in major yoga studios and gymnasiums. Not a related major, no foundation. They just pose, memorize passwords and finish a class like robots. If you are a yoga practitioner who has no contact with yoga at all, no one may know, but if you meet a yoga lover, she has been practicing yoga for more than 1 year, and will soon be considered unprofessional. Her skills simply can't be competent and face yoga practitioners who have been 1 year or more, and her unprofessionalism will soon be seen by everyone:

1. Every pose taught in each class tells the same password, and they are all passwords for yoga majors. A professional yoga teacher, her password must be very simple and clear, without a lot of seemingly awesome professional vocabulary that everyone can't understand. Moreover, the passwords given by professional yoga teachers to different groups of people are completely different, and even the passwords given according to everyone's situation are completely different. Yoga teachers who say passwords are not necessarily professional, but those who say yoga passwords must be unprofessional.

2, only care about their own movements, without assistance and correction. In yoga class, the teacher poses beautifully on the stage, and the students stagger below, still admiring. This yoga teacher is so beautiful, and this yoga teacher's posture is also great ... but if you don't look at beautiful women, please change it! A professional yoga teacher can demonstrate less or even not, guide yoga practice through language, and spend a lot of time and energy on correcting and guiding students' practice, rather than on movements. Yoga teachers who help correct postures are not necessarily professional, but those who do not have this link must be unprofessional.

3. There is no interaction before and after class. A professional yoga teacher will spend at least 5 minutes before class to get a brief understanding of the students' health and give different guidance in class according to each student's different situation. After class, she will simply answer students' feelings in this class, listen to their feedback and really help them solve problems. Teachers who communicate with students may be unprofessional, but teachers who never communicate with students must be unprofessional.

4, non-related majors, completely ignorant of the knowledge of the moving human body. Non-related professionals in the yoga market account for almost 70%-90% of the yoga instructor market. In recent years, with the rapid development of yoga market, the number of related majors has increased, but the proportion is still very small. If you want to know whether your yoga instructor is professional, you can ask whether your yoga instructor graduated from sports/rehabilitation/medicine and other related professional colleges. Although it can't be said that all related majors are professional instructors, it will take you 65,438+0-2 years to make up the knowledge of sports and human body that others have studied for four years. Teachers who know the human body are not necessarily professional, and those who don't know it must be unprofessional.

Of course, everyone has their own judgment about whether a yoga teacher is professional or not. The above judgment is for reference only, and I hope it will help some yoga lovers when choosing professional teachers. There is a process for the growth of yoga instructors. Here, I want to tell Gaja who are about to enter or are about to enter the yoga industry that yoga teachers are not a simple profession, nor can they learn well in one month, two months or three months. If it is not a related major, it will take at least half a year to study full-time. You have to learn not only yoga poses and yoga codes, but also the arrangement and correction of poses, breathing, physiological anatomy, yoga philosophy and so on. It is not easy for a yoga instructor to grow up. At the same time, I hope that after discovering these new people who are moving from "unprofessional" to "professional", the majority of yoga lovers can give these new yoga people more time and opportunities, so that they have enough time to grow.
