What exactly are you looking for on the Practical Exam?
A well designed lesson plan, containing warm ups, sun
salutations, asanas (Yoga postures), pranayama, and
meditation. You can substitute a stage by stage relaxation
sequence for the meditation segment of your Yoga class.
Suggested Sequence of Asana Series: sun salutations,
standing, seated, cat or table, prone, and supine. There are
many other options, but this gives you a basic guideline.
Inversions are fine, but remember that they are not wise in
the case of certain medical conditions. In extreme cases of
high blood pressure or an aneurysm, inverted asanas can be
life threatening.
You should mention modifications for Yoga postures and
contraindications. Be especially aware to give warnings for
high blood pressure or pregnancy. If you have students with
special conditions in the audience, you should mention any
modifications and contraindications that apply. You do not
have to point that student out.
If a student has difficulty holding a pose, feel free to make an
assist. However, make sure you demonstrate an asana long
enough for your visual Yoga students.
You should convey a feeling of compassion for your students.
Do not look or stare at your notes. We strongly suggest that
you get used to teaching Yoga classes without notes. You may
use them through your Yoga teacher training process, but
they look unprofessional when you teach a Yoga class.
Lastly, select good background music that will motivate or
calm your students, depending upon the task.
