Yoga Instructor - Fusion Yoga Studios - Ripley, UK
(2025-06 - 2025-11)
- Despite qualifying in October 2025, I have covered mixed ability classes as a trainee instructor since June 2026, designing engaging session plans for mixed ability groups. This involved layering cues/instructions to support students in finding their challenge point, noticing 'improper' form and correcting it inclusively, communicating clearly, and ensuring that students are safe in their practice.
- Throughout November, I have covered paid weekly evening classes whilst the owner has been away. This has entailed creating a new class weekly, using initiative and adapting the session plan to meet the needs of my students.
- Enrolling on this course has vastly increased my anatomy knowledge, ability to structure intelligent sessions and my communication skills as a fitness instructor.
