How to create a high-quality yoga space?
How to be a better yoga teacher?
How do yoga teachers handle the relationship with members?
It is worth our continuous study and discussion. ...
As yoga becomes more and more popular, more and more new members join. Among them, some may be lack of exercise for a long time, and some may be the first time to enter a yoga club. People who expect yoga to change.
I believe that every yoga club will make new users feel at home through some measures and activities to help them better adapt to the new environment. But if new members don't feel happy from this environment, it is often difficult for them to stick to their own practices.
The first impression determines whether the new members will come again.
As a yoga teacher, in addition to mastering professional knowledge, retaining customers is the key to your professional communication and display. Communicate with new members properly, create a comfortable practice environment for new members, and understand their concerns, expected needs and desires, as well as the content that users are interested in. Every yoga teacher is duty-bound to this.
The way a yoga teacher treats people directly reflects the first experience that this venue brings to users. At the same time, it also determines whether they will come again.
In order to leave a good first impression on the new members, the classroom equipment must be well maintained, and the lighting and room temperature are very important, so that everything looks in order. Through the preparation of the course and the arrangement of manners, the course can be carried out better.
How should yoga teachers receive new members?
The more prepared yoga teachers are to manage a large number of new members, the more likely they are to turn new members into long-term members. Mastering the following industry conscience advice will help you learn how to be a yoga teacher easily.
Communicate with new members before class.
As a yoga teacher, it is very important to communicate with members and friends in class. Because in class, the members give all their trust to the teacher, and the teacher's language guidance and posture correction determine whether the class can end in joy and relaxation.
Before the course begins, teachers can spend some time communicating with new members, whether in private or for the first time. Before the formal class, the more the teacher knows, the more unexpected results can be brought to the members.
1. Pay attention to the practice time of new members.
Before class, ask the new members if they have any practical experience. If everyone's progress is similar, then the intensity of this class can be appropriately enlarged. If you are a member who comes into contact with yoga for the first time, you can let the other person sit in front of you, so that you can help correct me in time with your actions or eyes.
2. Observe more and encourage more.
When some beginners and new members see the old members practicing, they often mention that they are envious of seeing the teacher so soft and soft. When can I do it? I believe that most teachers have encountered such problems. Give several examples of fast-growing members to encourage new members and make them more patient and confident.
3. Pay attention to whether the new member has any physical illness or discomfort.
When you see a new member or an unfamiliar member, you must pay attention to her personal health first. Because everyone's body will appear sub-health under normal circumstances. According to the other person's physical condition, avoid possible dangerous actions and clearly know which actions can't be done or not.
Set long-term goals for new members
Encourage new members to make practice plans and goals. Encouraging new members to make clear and long-term plans instead of general goals is easier to attract members to keep practicing. At first, everyone was ambitious. But wait another two months to see, there must be fewer members. Let members know more comprehensively why it is important to practice all year round, but it is useless to be surprised for a month or two. Let members understand the true meaning of yoga "persistence is practice"
Not just classes.
Yoga teachers sometimes fall into an inert state, just standing in front of the classroom to give lectures and show their actions, especially repeating the same class every day. But in the face of new members, teachers need to walk back and forth in the classroom to provide guidance and encouragement for each new student. By paying attention to each member, the teaching quality of the whole course can be improved. This is a benign interaction for both sides.
Besides helping to correct and improve posture, we should also encourage them and let them know that teachers can help them. Let them realize the benefits of practicing yoga and care about their state and mood.
Transposition consideration
When new members start classes, a challenge for yoga teachers is how to make them look at yoga correctly without being difficult to complete. This doesn't mean that you have to release water, and taking care of new members doesn't mean that the difficulty of the course needs to be low.
Experience the environment from the perspective of new users and put yourself in the other's shoes. It doesn't mean giving up technical terms completely or over-explaining, but giving enough information for new members to understand and digest correctly and adjust their expectations for themselves and the course. Then let them know that as long as they take a small step, they can reap a healthy life. Instead of letting them see only a mountain that is difficult to climb.
I suggest you answer these questions from the perspective of newcomers:
1. When you look around our hall, what comes to your mind first?
2. What are you worried about?
What don't you want to happen?
4. What can make you feel more comfortable?
5. What do you hope to learn and gain here?
With the development of the market, yoga industry is becoming more and more popular in China. However, the rapidly expanding yoga market has created a mixed chaos. An excellent yoga practitioner is not necessarily a qualified yoga teacher. A good yoga teacher, in addition to professional requirements, contact and communication with members is also particularly important. In the teaching process, words and deeds should play a positive role.
