Thanks so much Juliana, this was so helpful. I bought your 8 week beginner program and I've found it so helpful for teaching ❤

I like your instructions. They are helpful. Thank you for sharing 🙏 What about if I don't have a yoga school and I have only a few yoga groups a week where students joining all the time? So my groups are mixed - young and older people (some advanced and some beginners). I try to show simplest version and variations and advance version. Any other advices?

Wow Juliana, this was so valuable! THANK YOU! I'm super happy I came across this video. I've been teaching about 15 yoga classes for beginners so far (hence, I'm a very new teacher) and caught myself having done some things that I now realize are not beginner-friendly, for instance, warrior 3. I will definitely teach it more progressively next time. I have a few questions: Would you teach several balancing postures in one class or really just one when it comes to beginners? What would be a progressive way of teaching eagle? Figure 4/standing pigeon? What do you do to avoid sitting in easy seat throughout your warm-up (which I'm guilty of)?

My biggest challenge is I was recently diagnosed with a little known disability called dyscalculia. It is a neuro issue similair to dexlexia.... but for math, spacial and....sequencing. i have taken 200 twice and 300 ytt. It was online watching the videos was very limiting. There is no one to ask questions for clarification. . I tried to get help and they only referred me to a facebook group. The sequencing portion is the only thing preventing me from certification. I did try to find a local teacher, but most are online. It is frustrating. Thank you for listening.

If there is a more experienced yogi in the class give them advanced options, just as a struggling student is offered less challenging variations

You means yogasana yoga is not asana dear. This is a big mistakes in the superficial yoga!
