Senior Yogis Need Better Teachrs

Senior Yogis Need Better Teachrs

Senior Yogis Need Better Teachrs

Older adults have very different bodies, conditions and needs than 20 year-olds. This calls for a different kind of yoga practice.

1/3 of Yogis is 50+

Already today, 1 in 3 yoga practitioners is 50+ years old (in the US). This number is only going up as life expectancy goes up and more and more doctors recommend yoga to patients.

The problem is that most yoga teachers only teach yoga for the Young, Flexible and Healthy. Or at leas they don't have the knowledge or skills to really keep (often chronically ill, and usually not super bendy) senior practitioners safe and engaged.

95% with Health Conditions

Almost all of the older yoga practitioners (in the US) have at least 1 chronic health condition. Yoga helps prevent and manage all common health conditions (diabetes, arthritis, chronic pain, osteoporosis etc.)

That's a real shame because the benefits of yoga for body and mind are gigantic, especially for when you're 50+. That's why millions of older adults start to practice yoga every year. Doctors and other health professionals recommend yoga more and more to their clients.

1% Qualified Teachers

Less than 1% of yoga teachers are certified to teach older adults. That's a huge opportunity for every yoga teacher who does get the skills and knowledge to keep older yogis safe and excited about their practice.

99% of yoga teachers don't have the education and skills to offer targeted yoga classes for this growing, super diverse group of yogis. What a missed opportunity!

The Seniors Yoga Specialist Certification is your ticket to become part of the 1% of yoga professionals who are truly qualified to teach seniors.

It's a win-win for you and your students.

They get to fully enjoy the benefits of yoga. They can trust that you'll keep them safe, and they have a deeply meaningful way to spend time with others.

And you get lots of new students who appreciate you and the fact that you dedicate your time and energy to learn how to truly serve and help older yogis.

You'll not just help older adults. You'll stand out from the crowd of teachers, have great options to find private clients, or offer specialized events for seniors. Studios will love to work with you because you can fill classes when there's normally an empty room, etc.

The 40 hours of Seniors Yoga Specialization will pay off FOR SURE if you teach yoga in any capacity. There is literally no way that they won't.

And yes, this course is also for you if you're older and you want to practice, explore and enjoy yoga.

Common concerns

Isn't Seniors Yoga super boring?

No, it's the opposite. Teaching seniors is incredibly dynamic and fulfilling. Senior yogis represent the most diverse student population you'll encounter—with varying physical abilities, rich life experiences, and genuine appreciation for your expertise. They're attentive, kind, and yes, they typically have the financial stability to value and compensate quality instruction appropriately. Plus adding senior yoga to your repertoire doesn't mean teaching older adults only. It means enhancing your overall teaching skills while opening doors to an underserved, growing, and rewarding demographic that will transform both your teaching and your income.

Who can I teach?

You can teach any senior who comes to your class - from physically very fit as well as those who are completely immobile. And everyone in between. This course will teach you an array of styles of yoga asana as well as breathwork, meditation and Yoga Nidra. Upon completion of the course, you will be able to skillfully teach to the full spectrum of senior students who might show up to class. You will practice and learn how to teach poses in the chair, standing at the wall or using a chair as support, on all 4s, and on the floor. These are the 4 basic positions for every seniors yoga class. From there, you will be able to teach classes that are: - Fully seated in the chair (aka Chair Yoga) - Mixed seated in the chair and standing (also with the option for students to remain in the chair instead of standing) - Mixed seated in the chair, standing, and floor-based (with the option for students to stay seated or standing instead of getting on the floor) - Fully floor-based classes and more.
