Nearly 10 years of teaching and the biggest lesson had nothing to do with the exercises.

A few things I wish I'd known earlier:

  • The class begins the moment the first person walks in. Not when you give the first cue.
  • Correcting someone out loud tells them they're being watched for what they're doing wrong. There's always a quieter way.
  • Clients don't come back because the workout was hard. They come back because something in the hour made them feel capable.

Happy to answer questions if anyone here is navigating their first year of teaching.
