For yoga teachers at every stage of their careers – not a what-to-teach guide but a how-to-teach guide **Includes guidance on adapting your teaching to online platforms** There's so much more to teaching yoga than doing yoga -- from building a relationship with a studio (or opening your own) to navigating client relationships, publicising classes, and avoiding burnout.

How can I make smart choices around my schedule, my money, and the next steps in my career?

Rountree includes stories from her own experience, journal prompts, and thoughtful workbook exercises to help aspiring yoga teachers discern their path, and to provide current yoga teachers with much-desired continuing education.
