7 Steps To Create & Promote Your 1 to 1 Yoga Package
Overview
Don’t be afraid to charge a premium for your 1 to 1 yoga sessions. Most newbie yoga teachers charge less than £30 for a 1 to 1 session. Charging so little is big mistake for several reasons.
Reason #1
Your students won’t value it.
Reason 2
If you fail to charge enough you’ll have to work 2, 3 or 4 times harder – that is a sure fire way to burn out. Burn out is the #1 reason yoga teachers quit teaching.
Reason #3
It shows you don’t value your services.
Steps
Step 1
Create a 1 to 1 Yoga Package
Take a peek at my 1 to 1 Yoga Package. Please feel free to copy and paste it to your website. If you don’t have a yoga website and would like an affordable one, take a peek here.
Step 2
Copy
Copy and paste my 1 to 1 Yoga Package to your website. You may want to edit it a bit.
Step 3
Flyer
Create a 1 to 1 Yoga Flyer (or use the pre-filled 1 to 1 yoga flyer within The Yoga Teacher Business Kit).
Step 4
Print
Print a bunch of copies and give a copy to every student in your yoga class.
Step 5
Handout
Print plenty flyers and give handout to your students when they arrive for their first class.
Step 6
Promote
When you have a chat with a new student, and it looks like they would benefit from a 1 to 1 Yoga Session (e.g. she is pregnant), have the courage to mention your “Private Yoga Package”. Don’t be shy about it.
Step 7
Email
Send an email to your students. See below for an email I sent to a lady who had just started coming to my yoga class.

Hi Bev,
Hope your enjoying the yoga classes.
Some of the new students like to combine their yoga classes with a package of 5 or 10 private yoga sessions with me. This is a good option if you have any specific issues (e.g. back pain or arthritis) and want to create a yoga practice that suits your body and personality.
