118: My Group Class Planning Process

The Mentor Sessions

In January I started sharing my group class planning process in short videos on Instagram and y’all had questions! The more I shared, the more questions I got! So today we’ve got a solo episode on the podcast where I am answering all your questions about my group class planning process.

In this episode you’ll hear:

• how I try to bring recognizable sun salutation templates AND sequences that vary into each class

• why a thread of physical and emotional consistency woven throughout class makes it memorable to students

• a deep dive into the template I use in every class I teach

• what I recommend for teachers who often run out of time in class

• different ways to get inspiration for a theme

• a discussion on whether to create new sequences for every class or recycle old class plans

• what to do when the class you planned won’t work for the students who showed up

*After I recorded this episode, I taught four classes that are perfect examples of the things I discussed in the episode. Click here to buy this bundle of four classes at a discount.
