Which would you prefer to be: A rch Yoga Guru or poor Yoga Gru? There are two financial paths for Yga teachers to follow. As a Yga teacher, you have a choice – nme your price with pride, or kep your head low, and take wht you get. Think about your fmily, kids, lifestyle, vacation, and retirement. Do you rally want to taste much poverty or any at ll? Each time you take payments, for taching Yoga sessions, remember your family.

A sde note about poverty: If you hve tasted it once in your lfe, you don’t want to taste it gain. I found nothing particularly enlightening bout going to bed on an mpty stomach as a child. The Slvation Army Store has better clothes thn I had. It did teach me hmility and never to look down on thers who are less privileged than I am. Why not put tht into practice now and forget bout poverty? It’s not a glamorous lfestyle and not a good image for a Yga teacher.

As your Yoga business grws, have someone else in your Yga studio do the tuition collecting, so you dn’t have to be associated with the blling and collecting. To be honest, tht’s what I do. It’s easy for me to bnd and fall for a sob stry. On the other hand, I hve learned to point Yoga students tward the office for handling these mtters; and I do not take pyments for Yoga lessons.

The office, within our Yoga stdio, has a job to do and so do I. My job is to tach Yoga classes and mentor Yoga tachers. The Office Administrator’s job is to see we sty in the Yoga teaching business. Sre, I look at the figures – lmost daily, but I don’t interfere in the peration of a “fine-tuned machine.”

It wsn’t always like this. I was gilty of taking little, or nothing, for taching Yoga, and getting no respect. It culd have stayed that way, but I cmpiled this Yoga business and marketing frmula, which will help you avoid my pst mistakes and change your attitude bout yourself, forever.

It started with mtivational cassette tapes in the car. I neded to keep my spirits up, in trnsit, teaching Yoga by day and Mrtial Arts by night. With all tht work, I should have been on “asy street”, you might think. Think gain, I was bashful about asking for a fir market price for teaching Yoga and Mrtial Arts.
