MyYogaTeacher Community

I don’t think I have received the personalised plan and I’ve had a few classes already. It sounds good

There are hardly options for classes starting from 5:30pm/ 6:00pm CT. If you can please have some beginner flow classes there. Some teachers expects us to know the name of the poses whithout guiding step-by-step to the pose- that becomes difficult to follow. Some teachers do not talk about the breathing part- when to inhale and exhale- so instructions can be a little more elaborate.

We’ve noticed that many of you who’ve recently joined the community are just getting started with yoga. If that’s you — welcome. It’s great to have you here. To make things easier, we’ve put together a beginner-friendly guide that introduces simple asanas and helps you ease into practice at your own pace: https://myyogateacher.com/yoga-for-everyone/yoga-for-beginners This is a good starting point if you’re unsure where to begin or want a simple structure to follow. For those who’ve been practicing for a while — what helped you the most when you were starting out? Feel free to share your experience.

Member Spotlight: Binu Kurup, 51 | California, USA “Small, steady steps with the right teacher can lead to lasting well-being.” Before joining MyYogaTeacher, Binu’s life was a whirlwind of work pressures and family duties, with little time left for herself. As someone navigating a high-stress job and the onset of perimenopause, her health—both physical and emotional—had quietly slipped down her list of priorities. That all changed in January 2024. In her search for more than just a yoga class, Binu discovered the heart of our platform: teachers who truly see you. After trying a few sessions, she found her way to Priya Choudhury, Nitisha and Arashdeep—teachers who brought not just expertise but presence, empathy, and real-time, personal guidance. Among them, Priya became a constant. Whether in group classes or 1:1 sessions, Priya curated each session with a thoughtful blend of structure and creativity. What stood out most? Her memory for each student’s needs—offering quiet modifications for back pain or shoulder issues without missing a beat. “Her classes are intentional, grounded, and alive,” Binu shares. 🧘‍️ The Results? • A stronger, more flexible body • A calmer, more balanced mind • A renewed sense of self-care and consistency • A deeper respect for yoga as a spiritual practice Despite business travel and a busy schedule, Binu now makes her practice a priority—not a chore. And in Priya, she found not just a teacher, but a guide rooted in the values that make this practice so powerful. Binu’s Advice for Others: “Find a teacher who sees you—your needs, your pace, your potential. You don’t need big leaps. Just small, sincere steps, taken with the right guidance, can change everything.”

You can do. If you go to any of your past sessions, if you scroll down, there’s a section for you to add your own notes and save them. Only you can see the notes. You can also search your past sessions eg by the name of the teacher.

Great job! Hope the 20-day challenge helped motivate you. I started walking 7–8k steps daily from January. We’ll be launching more such challenges soon.
