I'm here to help yoga teachers own the hell out of their voice. Today, I share ten of my top practices to support new (or returning) teachers to do just that.
Which is really about supporting you to become the biggest and most impactful version of yourself. Because you can't step into your becoming as a teacher and have it not permeate the rest of your life.
These are ten ways of showing up, leading a room, and meeting myself that I have cultivated over the years. And they're informed by the community of teachers I've worked with, based on common themes we encounter.
And these are reminders I still need to offer myself. Because creative leadership is always a practice.

Bonnie (00:01.09)
Hello friends, welcome to the podcast. Today, today is all about those people who are just stepping into being a yoga teacher or who are returning to teaching yoga after it has been a minute. People who maybe took a pause and haven't taught for a long time or maybe people who got their training and didn't feel quite ready to step into teaching, but now...
For some reason, this is the call. This is a podcast for you today. I have the opportunity to communicate with a lot of teachers and feel into the intention and understand why--that--they're teaching and who they are trying to teach and what they're trying to accomplish with their teaching.
And with all of the variety of ways that we show up in the world, there are some common things and themes that really help us as teachers. You know, I'll just reiterate what I say often on Instagram and social media. I say, you know, hey, I'm Bonnie and I help yoga teachers own the hell out of their voice. And the cool part about this is you cannot step into becoming a teacher and owning your voice—
And not have it infiltrate all the rest of the parts of your life. Where if you are in yoga and you have to stand up in front of the room and you have to face yourself and you have to face the fears that you might have, the insecurities you might have, the knowledge or the lack of and figure out how to orchestrate a whole other new experience as a yoga teacher. You can't do that and not have that affect other places in your life. So if you are choosing to show up and lead a room and really lead it with a desire to do it excellently…
Bonnie (02:11.458)
That refinement process of being a teacher is going to filter into other places in your life in the best of ways, in ways that you absolutely want it to do that. Because it is going to be a big, brave, bold, and curious life if you are willing to step up and say, I'm gonna own the hell out of my voice. And.
It might not always be comfortable. So all of this said, I have, I have 10 points for you today that if you are a new yoga teacher or somebody who is stepping into teaching yoga, this is what I would share with you from my personal practice of teaching and from working with so many other teachers who are also currently in their own practice of teaching.
Okay, so overarching theme of this is that we are going to let everything be an experiment. And I'm going to gamify our language today. And I think that's a really important piece. So take notes of this. How can we talk about serious things in playful ways? So gamifying your language is a part of that, okay? So using language like “experiment,” right?
So an experiment is something that might work, or maybe it's something that we take back and say, that didn't work, let's try it again, right? So there's wiggle room in there. There's wiggle room in there. So we're gonna let this be an experiment. So if you're a new yoga teacher, or you're returning to the yoga room to teach, and to stand up and own the hell out of your voice and the way that you lead, we are going to let this be an experiment.
So please, as I go into these 10 things today, you can take notes, you can kind of pause and reflect on these things for you. And remember that we don't learn everything all at once and crunch it into our brains. We learn a little piece and we learn another little piece. And I want you to remember to trust the timing of your learning.
Bonnie (04:39.206)
That you are in this place hearing the things you need to hear, doing the things you need to do, that your life is where it can be and it couldn't be this thing before now. So I really want you to sit and trust that you're in the place that you need to be. Okay, let's begin. We're gonna let this be an experiment, you know.
Okay, so number one, I want you to give yourself permission to be a beginner or to be a beginner again. It's sometimes the most awkward time to show up when you are a beginner. When something is brand new and you have not done it, you only get to be a beginner once, but it can be so freaking uncomfortable. And it makes me think about learning to surf skateboard.
When you surf skateboard, the front truck of a skateboard wiggles from side to side. And it creates an ease to flow, but it's not necessarily easy to learn. And as somebody who did not grow up skateboarding, I felt kind of terrified of putting wheels underneath my feet—
learning how to surf skateboard these past couple of years has been a learning experience. And I was at a pump track, which is usually, usually for people who are on BMX bikes. And it's these heels and they're, they have asphalt on them and you don't, the goal is to not pedal and use the momentum of the hills and you push into the ground with your body and then you lift up with your body in order to get yourself to go. So you pump with your body.
You can do this also with a skateboard and pump with your body. So it's a pump track. And I think the permission to be a beginner at this, this experience feels so visceral to me of being at a pump track with the surf skateboard, have all my protective gear on and it feels hard as fuck. I'm frustrated and my lover is like…
Bonnie (06:58.87)
trying to show me how to do it, and I did not want any input. I was like, just leave me alone. Just like, I was angry, right? When something is hard and you can't get it and you get angry, I was in that stage of it.
And then I reminded myself, I was like stuck in that loop and I was trying to pump and trying to do the things. And I was like, “wait a second, Bonnie,” and I had to slow down for a minute. I had to be in my own process and say, “Bonnie, remember, this is not supposed to be easy. It's not supposed to be easy. It's supposed to be hard.”
And the reminder that it was supposed to be hard, just from myself to myself, made my whole body relax. This was the first time I was doing this. This was the first pump track. This was the first time I was kind of getting it, but kind of bombing it at the same time. And the reminder to myself that it was not supposed to be easy and that it was supposed to be a process made me be able to receive feedback, receive instruction and get it wrong. I gave myself permission to get it wrong and to not be good at it because I was real bad at it. So that gave me the permission to say, “Oh, you know what? Actually, I shouldn't be good at this. I am going to suck.” So remember that you get to be a beginner and you're only going to be a beginner once.
And sometimes the first times that you do something are the most awkward and the most confusing and the most, like, the time when you'll feel like you're flailing the most. Okay, so number one, number two, we're gonna follow that right up with repeating your class. Repeat your class, especially if you're a Vinyasa yoga teacher.
Bonnie (09:02.974)
It is very common that you feel pressure to teach a different class and a different class sequence every single time. You do not have to. You do not have to. Not only that, but people aren't going to think you suck as a teacher. People aren't going to boycott your class. Instead, people might actually come more often.
Because you're going to communicate with them. And that's such a big piece in the conversation about repeating your class is communicating with your students and saying, “Hey, this entire week I'm gonna teach the same class. We might grow it and tweak it in some ways, but we're gonna start off and it's gonna feel maybe a little bit awkward. We're gonna be in our brain and trying to understand rights and lefts and where we're moving and what body parts replacing where, but as the week moves on, you're going to refine how you're doing it, not just what you're doing.”
So it gets easier for them and they get to move from that beginner, tricky, what the hell is up mindset, the same as you as a teacher. Because when we teach something, the first time is often the hardest when we teach it. And if we don't pick it up again, it doesn't get better. And so give yourself permission to repeat your classes.
Be a beginner and to let your students also have that same trajectory of like, “Oh, I could hone this skill of moving my body in this way. And then you can change it up again, because if you're a vinyasa teacher, I mean, odds are high that you're going to get bored if you're teaching the same thing all the time. That's why you chose to teach a type of yoga that is constantly changing. So, but play with it. You can give yourself permission to repeat classes.
And it will create a bit of ease also within your own preparation. I truly believe it creates less burnout. It provides more play and your students are more successful, feel more success in their bodies because they get it inside of them and again, they get to move from their brain to their body, to their breath. And that's a really powerful.
Bonnie (11:23.51)
Okay, so that's number two. Number three is to remember that perfect is boring. Perfect is boring. Whatever teacher you have had that you think is the teacher that you want to emulate, think is like the way to do it, and that if you don't, that everything is a failure, I want you to just pause for just a moment.
And remember that other people around you can 100% inspire you and show you what is possible. But you get to do it in your own way and nobody is perfect. I'm not perfect. I walk away from class constantly—even this past week when I taught class, I was like, “Well, you know what? I've tried to teach this one particular flow so many times.” I have taught this one particular class probably to the, I've taught a class probably 10 times trying to get to a particular sequence. The sequence is a tricky sequence. It really needs at least an hour and a half long class and that's when it is most successful. So if I have an hour long class and with people who are not as familiar with yoga, it really is a tricky one.
So I'm walking away from classes last week saying, “Okay, I've got to set that one down. If it's going to be this timeframe with this audience, that doesn't work.” So I'm learning things all the time. And I want you to remember perfect is boring and emulate. Try on those teaching skills and leadership skills and ways of being in the people that you see because y'all, there are people that I look up to.
A hundred percent. I'm like, “Ooh, that person, there's something there in that person and I can feel it.” But I let that inspire me to keep growing. I don't want to be them. There's already one of them. I want to be me. What's the bravest version of myself and how do I let that person show up? Because somebody else is giving themselves permission. Okay. So perfect is boring. Don't try to be perfect. Don't try to be like somebody else.
Bonnie (13:42.598)
We’re looking for you to be you. Okay? Number four.
How can you think of each class as an opportunity to play with a new thing?
And this is going to pair with number five, which is also don't try to give or teach everything in a single class. So these two go together. So don't try to teach everything in a single class because you're going to feel like a failure. You're like, I didn't even do it. What? You can't. Yoga is the practice of paying attention. Yoga is like all of the things. It's all of the things. You can't teach everything a single class. So like just sit down.
Calm down, right? And we'll go back to number four is how can you play in each class with a new thing? So I want you to think about, you know, for your class or if you're gonna teach the same class for the whole week then, or if you teach it, you might teach a weekly class just once a week. So how can you play with a particular pose or transition or a leadership skill or a storytelling ability? And you can pick some specific things.
Like you can pick, some anatomical terms, some words in Sanskrit that you want to practice. You can pick some different pieces of the teaching craft and bring those into your class and saying, okay, this week I am going to play with this type of skill or I'm going to play with teaching in this way. So let yourself...
Bonnie (15:22.19)
kind of use the class as an experiment because it is an experiment, it's a practice. We're learning how to teach as we teach, okay? So number four is to play in each class the new thing. Number five, don't try to give everything in a single class like it's impossible, just set that down. Number six, teach what you know. And stay curious about what you don't. And one of the things I like to say in Flow School a whole lot. So I teach fFow School. I have taught Flow School 12 times.
And this next year, 2024, I'm teaching more in person and at the same time doing online. And it is if you show up—for people who show up and participate and do the things—it is life-changing. And truly people have been able to find more of themselves and their own voice because it's not about becoming a teacher like me. There's already one of me. I don't want you to be like me. I want you to be the version of yourself that is most impactful in the room.
So we don't know all the things. I don't know all the things. I want you to teach what you know and stay curious about what you don't. And when I talk to people in flow school, I tell them, remember that what you're teaching is not who you are.
Let me say that again. What you're teaching is not who you are. So you can try on a certain way of teaching. You can be teaching a certain way and receive feedback and be able to separate yourself from that class that you're teaching. Because y'all know that some days it's just shitty, right? And some days everything is, lines up perfectly. And we have our own internal experience that we're bringing into classroom that we don't necessarily share with our students, but are processing things just the same as our students.
And so showing up into the room and allowing us to stay curious about what we're teaching and separate ourselves from the class that we're teaching. That is not who I am. The class that I taught last Tuesday is not who I am. It is a sequence and it was a presentation and it was an experience I offered, but I am bigger than that. Like that's a small piece of what I do and I want to show up and represent well.
Bonnie (17:38.454)
Like, the type of person I want to be in the room, but it's not who I am. So that allows me, listen, this is important. This allows me to look objectively at how I am leading and what I am teaching and how I can improve upon what I am doing so that I can be better at the craft and elevate the industry of yoga. That is what we are here for.
So create that separation. And teach what you know and be okay if you need to readjust what you thought you knew as you gain more information. That's exciting. Like let that be exciting. So moving from that, teaching is oftentimes, we gotta tell people, right? They've gotta talk to them. And...
I want you also as our next point is to remember to let there be silence. So number seven is to give yourself permission to pause and not have to fill every single space with words. And sometimes we feel like we have to. Sometimes it feels like that's the yoga teacher thing to do. And it's not.
Because we trust the yoga, we trust that moving our bodies and guiding bodies excellently and giving clear, concise, commanding cues in a compassionate way, we believe that if we are helping people move their bodies, they are automatically finding words and language and stories inside themselves, then their brain is so busy and they are learning about themselves.
We don't have to have all the words. Actually giving some pause and silence might give them an opportunity to process that for themselves. So it is okay to not say 1 billion things.
Bonnie (19:45.833)
Number...
Number eight is to spend time on the mat outside of class planning and class attending that is not your own. So this is just you and your mat just for the hell of it. This is so important. If you are a new teacher and you're feeling excited, why did you want to show up and teach in the first place? What made you want to come?
Spend time with your own practice and going to class and didn't have the teacher brain. ‘Cause once you become a teacher, you have yoga teacher brain where you think about how the class is being put together, what is being taught, how you wanna teach it, how you would do it the same or different, et cetera, et cetera, your brain is going. So you need to keep a space. I really believe this. You need to keep a space where you just get to show up just for you and move.
Not in a way of attending somebody's class. This is not count as class planning. This is just for you to move. This keeps you connected to you, to you. And when you are moved, you move others. Your joy is contagious. If you feel stoked about what you're doing, you're gonna wanna bring that to other people.
And they're going to believe you and you need to build trust with those people. They're showing up with their bodies, with all their things. And they're like, okay, show me how to move. Like, what should I do? Just tell me. And if you don't believe it, how can they believe it? Your connection to the practice itself and creating your own space. And I'm not saying you had to practice for an hour.
Bonnie (21:34.93)
I'm saying you get on your mat for 15 minutes. You set a 15 minute timer. You have no plan. You have no rules and you just show up and do whatever the hell you want. That's what I'm talking about. Keep that. Number nine is to believe in your ability to guide others and own the hell out of it in your way. This loops back to like perfect is boring, right?
And to how we're maybe finding teachers that we've learned from and different styles. And there's so many different ways to practice yoga. And I think about how my kids think yoga is what I do. And they're right. And they're also wrong. Because it is yoga, but all of us, if everyone who was listening to this right now was in a room together and we all sit, and then I said, okay, everybody do yoga right now.
Like it would look like so many different things. It might not even look like, people might walk right off their mat and that would also be yoga. And so there's so many different ways to show up, right? And your ability to do it in your way and your ownership of who you are as a human being, as a teacher, as a leader.
All of that matters. Your personality comes through as you are guiding and the way in which you guide is unique to you because warrior two is warrior two, chair pose is chair pose, down dog is down dog. Like those are things that we could all list on a piece of paper and be like, “Okay, yep, yep. Check, mark, check, mark, check, mark.” But what makes us different? What makes you valuable and me valuable?
Why can both of us exist in the room? And both be needed, necessary and impactful. It's because we do it different. It's because my way is not your way and the way that both of us show up is going to impact other people in different sorts of ways. And that's really beautiful. And some of it has to do with the skill in teaching. Some of it has to do with the type of yoga that is being taught.
Bonnie (23:58.55)
And someone has to deal with just straight up personality and the way we arrive in the room and the way we welcome somebody or the way we hold ourselves, the tone of our voice, all of the things. Your way and my way can both be right. My ownership of my voice and your ownership of your voice are both needed. I don't want you to be me. That's boring.
All the things that I do are about helping you own the hell out of your voice and giving yourself permission to get bigger and bolder because you will change more people's lives. And most importantly, you are going to change your own life. This is why I exist. This is how everything goes with everything that I do. It is all this. It is all this. And it's part of why I teach flow school. It's part of why I share this podcast. It's part of why I even write sexy poetry and have my Sexy Sunday podcast.
And share pictures of myself and do nude photography and it's part of all of the things. It's like, well, what if I just own it? What if I just own who I am and I don't try to hide my parts and give myself permission to be more than one thing? And then I show up in the room and I'm not in a rush. I don't have to hide anything.
I don't know, it's more interesting to me. And yeah, it's hard. It's hard and it's terrifying and it's uncomfortable and it happens in layers. And so again, give yourself permission to do it in your way and in your own time because you're gonna change. You're gonna change as you keep showing up and I think about myself—
even five years ago, to now. And the type of teacher I am is a different teacher. And in five years, I'm gonna be a different teacher again. And I love that because it's gonna be a growth. Like it's an expansion of a teacher. So I am here for that. So there is no rush. And number 10 that I'm gonna give you, I mean, again, I could probably—
Bonnie (26:14.254)
to probably be like, here is a list of 100 things to be a new teacher and we could dive in. And this is of course some of my favorite stuff, but I hope you're picking up on the fact that these things pertain to teaching yoga and they just pertain to you owning the hell out of your life. It's, and this can be applied to the yoga room and to a lot of other rooms as well, right?
Okay, number 10, last thing that I'm gonna give you—is that I want you to embrace your dom energy. What do I mean by that? Dom is short for dominant. Let's say it another way. I want you to own telling people what to do.
Said one more way is I want you to have that “yes, Daddy” energy. You know, and honestly I've never said “yes, Daddy” to any sort of lover, but I kind of want to, I just started saying this phrase. We said it actually in Flow School a couple of weeks ago, Flow School in real life here in Portland, Oregon. I was seriously that in real life experiences. They, they rock me in the best way. Like it's exactly where I need to be.
And what we're doing together. But, you know, I was talking to a teacher and she was teaching and I was like, “This is where you tell us what to do. This is where we want to be told what to do.” This is what I told her. It's like, “We wanna be told, you tell us—be bossy. We wanna be able to say ‘yes, Daddy’ to you.” Now you tell us, we're like, “Okay, yes, daddy.” Like that's exactly what we wanna do.
And does not this can rub you totally the wrong way? That sounds like a pun. Well, innuendo, so that's fine. There we go. This is also me. But I want you to think about this type of energy and you don't have to say these particular phrases, but I want you to think about the energy where somebody is telling you what to do and you trust them and they feel safe. That is what this energy means. You're gonna be dominant as in they are saying, “Hey, we want to do what you're telling us to do.” And...
Bonnie (28:28.974)
they're gonna say yes to you. And the way for people to want to say yes is that they trust you, is that they feel safe with you. And there's no such thing as ultimate safety for anybody because everybody is different in different places in their life. So I really don't like using the phrase, like I create a safe space because ultimately I don't create a safe space for every single person in the world. So I don't like using that phrase.
I try to be a safe person, but even then, I'm not gonna be a safe person for everybody. Not everybody is gonna feel like I'm safe because we have different personalities and likes and viewpoints and et cetera, right? So I'm just gonna show up. I'm gonna try to build trust, which that could be, that's a whole other sort of thing, like sort of conversation, how do we build trust? I'm gonna try to build trust. I'm going to listen. I'm going to stay curious. I'm gonna be brave. I'm gonna own my voice. And...
I'm going to tell them what to do. And in my weaving together of creativity and awareness and attention and innovation and practice and being awkward, all the levels it is to be a teacher, I'm gonna be direct in my cueing. I'm gonna be clear, concise and commanding in my cueing.
This is a huge piece of Flow School actually is how to direct people and how to get them to move in ways that are already typical, especially because I teach outside of talking about sun salutations. Sun salutations are a really good way to start our conversation though. So if you're going to talk about a sun salutation, you say, lift your hands up and over your head, look up, reach up, right? Look up in between years, reach up, draw your hands together, pull your hands down to the center of your heart.
These are cues that are very direct and to the point, right? And that is what we're looking for. Sweep your hands up and over your head. Exhale, fold forward. Bring your fingertips to the floor. Plant your hands on the mat, step your feet back to plank. So I'm not finding a lot of fluff in between where
Bonnie (30:53.938)
I'm like, well, should I tell them how to do it or not to do it? It is a skill to tell people what to do in a clear and concise way. And your own practice in direct giving directions and is part of how you will build trust. And so it's like an interesting thing where you need to give directions, it will help them build trust.
Like, in you and then vice versa, they'll have trust in you to then follow your directions. It's like this weird little circle. But I want you to embrace that energy and say, “Okay, I'm gonna be daddy.” And again, you don't have to resonate with that. I think I wouldn't have, but I am just thinking it's humorous now because I think the play between sensuality and sex and yoga is interesting, especially because this is a totally side tangent, but it's especially because
we have a body and bodies can be, and bodies are used for a lot of different things. And so if this is resonating with you and this, you're like, “Oh, okay, this makes sense,” right? Tell somebody what to do. And in a playful way, in a consensual way, where all parties are agreeing, this is not parent-child though, right? So I think that's important. Like this is not a parent and a child. This is consenting adults. And your ability to show up.
Be clear about your intentions and give yourself permission to pause if you need to regroup because you might be telling people what to do and you're like, “Oh my gosh, I'm feeling lost or scrambled.” People don't know that you are. Just put them back in down dog. Stand them up in Tadasana, have them close their eyes for a second. You walk to the back of the room so they don't look at you. You cue some breaths. You let them stand there for a second.
Or regroup yourself, put your own hand on your heart and say, “Okay, I need to guide these people. They just need to move and breathe and rest. That's all I need to do, move and breathe and rest. I can do that.”
Bonnie (32:59.758)
Take a breath and lead them. Lead them. In a yoga class, especially with beginners, people literally follow what you're doing. They wanna watch you the whole time. You are a leader. Can I say that again? You are a leader. And maybe you didn't sign up for yoga to be a teacher thinking that you were going to be followed in this way, but you are being followed.
And your ability to show up and to tell them how to move is going to be beneficial for their own practice. It gives them both more and less to think about. If I show up at yoga class, I just want somebody to tell me what to do. I could move myself a hundred percent, but I don't want to think about it. I just want to go and enjoy somebody else's like, tell me boss me around. Tell me where to move for a second.
It gives me more to think about because I have to like do what they're being, what I'm being told. Not that I have to, but I'm, I have signed up to, I've said yes to by going to the class. So remember that people came to class, like doing that. We can have a whole conversation about people who might not do what you have are inviting them to in class. That's a different conversation, but it also allows more space in somebody's head to think about other things cause they're not in charge of their body movements.
And so it creates a different kind of space in them. So trust that people are showing up and want you to tell them what to do. They are consenting because they're signing up for class. So own your voice, own that dom energy, do it in a way that's compassionate, but honest and straightforward and curious and be in observation of them, like watch them.
Even if you demo the whole time, keep your gaze on those people. If your head's in down dog, don't look at them. They can't see you. I mean, don't put your head down. I said that wrong. If they're in down dog, they can't see you. So you look at them, right? You don't have to demo down dog. Look at them. And anytime you are cueing things, can you do it without turning your back to people? Can you move to the sides of the room so you can see them? They can see you better.
Bonnie (35:21.814)
So allowing yourself a little bit of wiggle room and just watch them. It will help your cueing get better because you will see how it is landing. Another, let's look back, why repetition is so powerful, because you're also repeating how you're saying the things. And as you repeat things and you watch them, you see how it lands and you see where you need to refine.
Okay, friends, I could talk about all these things for a long time and I could add more, but that is a list of 10, but it might've felt like 30. That's fine. With several stores in there. Um, Flow School, if this is interesting to you, if this is feeling like sliding you up, this is a lot. You could take this and run. I love giving this podcast, um, space and sharing with you things that feel really tangible.
You could take so many things from this and try it out, this week in your classes. You don't need more. And maybe this is perfectly enough. And if you do want more and wanna talk about creative sequencing and queuing, then Flow School is an amazing opportunity for that. In January, 2024, we're jumping online again. And then in March of 2024, we are going, I'm meeting you in Florida. And I'm taking Flow School on the road to meet people, making it hopefully a little bit like easier for some people to say yes.
And not have to travel to Portland, although I love hosting you in Portland. So those are opportunities for Flow School. If you want individual one-on-one attention, I get it. I get it. And December 1st of this year, so as I'm recording this, this is gonna be in a week. And if we're past this and you're listening to all this, you can go to my website and find everything up to date. But December 1st, I'm opening up application for mentorship with me in January, so in this coming year.
And this is where we get to meet one-on-one. This is where you get to bring exactly where you are and what you wanna work on. And I get to meet you there. Because your biggest bravest self, your most curious, your weirdest self, when you start to own the hell out of that self and your voice, you're gonna start changing your community, everyone around you, yourself.

And what you create with your life is going to be bigger. It's going to be bigger than what you can even imagine. And I am here for that. I'm here to help you create that self that believes in yourself and in your unique way of showing up in the world.
So. Ah, again, thank you for being here. Thank you for being a teacher in all the different ways that you are a teacher, both in the yoga room and out of the yoga room. And if you're just showing up to teaching yoga again, and if any of this resonated, please feel free to reach out. You can leave, send me an email on hello at bonnieweeks.com.
