zoujie’s Mysore classroom – “Astanga Guangzhou” will hold a public welfare course in June.
If you are interested, please read the next article and welcome to sign up.) In the past, when I went to a yoga studio to practice, I was always curious about my favorite teacher and wanted to know her growth path.
At one time, I thought that yoga teachers were a magical existence, and their experiences were covered with mystery.
When I learned more about this industry, I realized that yoga teachers are just ordinary people.
If they want to be good teachers, they have to make a lot of efforts.
Today I want to share the growth experience of an authorized Ashtanga Yoga teacher.
At present, there are more than 20 authorized teachers of ah Tang in China.
Because there are fewer, they are more precious, enough for ah Tang practitioners to worship.
Since zoujie came into contact with yoga, became a yoga teacher, and obtained the qualification of a Tang authorized teacher, she has had her own persistence and dream.
When he was a college student in Changsha, zoujie went to the gym with his classmates and fell in love with sports.
Later, because he was kind enough to help the yoga teacher in the gym, he had his first yoga class in his life, which was very interesting.
“My body is very stiff.
As a yoga teacher for so many years, I seldom meet students who are stiffer than my body.
Even students with zero foundation are softer than me.” At first, he could not touch the ground with his hands from standing to bending down.
When he could touch the ground one day, he was very happy.
He will spend a long time in QQ space to share photos of his asanas, such as wheel pose.
Even though the wheel pose was far from being right, for example, his hands and feet were too far away, his shoulders were not pushed up, and his head was almost landing…
At that time, he was still full of a sense of achievement, and it was this sense of achievement that drove him to practice yoga.
Zoujie felt lucky to meet a good yoga teacher.
In class, the teacher taught him about asana, breathing and philosophy; After class, the teacher gave him the streaming yoga video made by the white lotus foundation and encouraged him to share and recommend yoga with his family and friends.
So he began to try to be a part-time yoga teacher.
As time flies, zoujie decides to go to Guangzhou for internship.
He has successfully entered an Internet company and is doing work corresponding to his university software major.
He found that he didn’t like sitting in front of the computer all the time.
He felt very depressed, but in order to make a living, he needed to do this job.
After work, being a part-time yoga teacher seems to be more fun for him to find a job.
At that time, as a part-time yoga teacher, the class fee of 100 yuan an hour was quite considerable.
If there is no fixed job during the day and there are four substitute classes a day, there will be more than 10000 income in a month.
After weighing several factors, including income, interest and time freedom, zoujie finally gave up his 9-to-5 Internet work and devoted himself to the yoga industry.
At first zoujie didn’t have much confidence, because yoga teacher is not a profession recognized at the national level, and he hopes to be a qualified yoga teacher.
After a period of search and research, he applied for the intermediate qualification certificate of fitness instructor issued by the State General Administration of sports.
Although there were some episodes in the examination stage, through unremitting efforts, he got the qualification certificate as he wished.
With a certificate, zoujie is like a god of the sea.
In the yoga industry, where male teachers are scarce, he is very handy as a part-time teacher.
He can easily pass every interview.
In this way, a year or two later, he was invited by the owner of a yoga studio to cooperate with the yoga studio in depth in the form of technology shares.
He was mainly responsible for the operation of the yoga studio, including designing yoga courses, managing the teacher team, etc.
The efforts of the two people finally paid off.
Although there was a large gym next to the yoga studio and the competition was fierce, they still insisted on their own characteristics and survived.
Unfortunately, the two partners parted ways because of their different business ideas, and zoujie returned to working part-time in major yoga centers.
He also started a new attempt, including taking part in professional yoga training ryt200 hours, and teaching some training courses after obtaining the qualification.
When participating in the ryt200 hour training, zoujie met a noble teacher Maya on his way to Ashtanga.
She once went to Ashtanga Yoga Institute in India to practice with the leader sharathji.
The teaching method was more in line with the traditional norms, giving him the opportunity to fully understand Ashtanga.
In addition, he found that the founders of many yoga genres practiced ah Tang at first, which doubled his liking for ah Tang and gave him the idea to study ah Tang in India.
This simple thought turned into four studies in India.
At the same time, his understanding of the profession of yoga teacher was completely changed.
He believes that yoga is not only teaching movements, but also needs to convey a way of life and values.
It is more important to integrate yoga into life than to do asana.
Zoujie and his classmates lined up to wait for the leader’s LED class, which was such a pious thing.
Unprepared, zoujie got the authorization of teacher a Tang.
With this blessing from the leader, in 2019, he opened Mysore classroom – “Ashtanga Guangzhou” in Guangzhou, where more yoga practitioners have the opportunity to contact the authentic Ashtanga Yoga.
Zoujie was authorized by a Tang teacher to talk about the changes brought about by yoga and a Tang.
He said: “later, it was found that the leader of a Tang changed my view of life and even changed the trajectory of my life.
Since then, I have embarked on the road of practice.
I will think about the meaning of life and no longer live only for money, house and car..
