For Yoga Teachers

26-04-2024 • 10分

Introducing Sanskrit in to your yoga classes can be daunting for all the reasons we talked about in episode 41, which was ‘Should yoga teachers use Sanskrit?’

However, it doesn’t have to be daunting. (Promise!)

This episode is 7 simple ways to add Sanskrit in to your classes, let's take a look:

  • Go slow and steady - no need to rush
  • Build confidence in your pronunciation
  • Say the Sanskrit with the English
  • Suggest a mantra for your yogis
  • Lead a chant
  • Lead Pranayama techniques
  • Pick your time, and yogis, carefully


On The Base, we’ve got a pronunciation guide in our resources section for you to come back as often as you need to, to help with getting the pronunciation bang on, so Team Base keep your eyes peeled for that!
