59: 9 Types Of Cues To Include In Every Class

Join the Cue With Confidence course at http://www.quietmind.yoga/cuewithconfidence

A little challenge I’ve had for myself over the years is to figure how to say as much as possible about a pose in as few words as possible

- while also speaking to all levels of students and giving them options so the class feels personalized

- while also integrating anatomy and philosophy lessons that are relevant

- while giving lots of space for the student to have their own experience and listen to their body’s needs.

There are infinite ways to cue a pose and I encourage you to find your own and I’ve found dozens of cues and really efficient phrases that do all of the above - distilling 10 years of trial and error as a teacher into 2 1/2 hr workshop I’m teaching in the Cue With Confidence Workshop.

Today I’ll share how to frame this through 9 types of cues that great teachers include in every class. This is not something that is traditionally taught in teacher trainings, but something I have observered from 12 years of practice and 10 years of teaching. Listen in to hear about these cues and how they can significantly improve the quality of your classes and the experience of your students!

We all know to cue with the breath. Inhale, do x. Exhale, do y. This is a great foundation but there are 8 other types of cues that you can easily include in every class to give students a much more well-rounded experience while integrating all aspects of yoga beyond just the poses. I'll teach you when, why and how to include all 9 types of cues, no matter what style of yoga you teach.
