"Hi, my name is Ashley Ludman from Seaside Yoga. So the question is how does one become a yoga instructor? So after you have engaged in your yoga practice for a good amount of time, seen the benefits for yourself, you may have considered going into a yoga certification program. Once you have completed a yoga training, now how do I become a yoga teacher? So the first key, if there's a will, there's a way. You have to find what's speaks to you. If you love working with beginner yoga students, then, seek out beginner yoga students. If you really love the power of, power Vinyasa Yoga, maybe that's what you're more of yourself as. And the key to any type of career in yoga is teaching from your heart, teaching from what you love. Marketing yourself to the right students and the right people and the right ways, finding places where you can teach, thinking outside of the box, not just from a yoga studio or a gym, but, can I go to a local rec center and offer a class there? Can I go to specific support groups and offer yoga classes there? As much as you put yourself out, you'll start receiving more students and eventually you'll find that you are a yoga teacher indeed."
