How to Teach Mixed Level Classes?

Teaching mixed level classes can feel overwhelming, especially when your students are all at different stages in their practice. In this episode, I share simple, practical ways to structure your classes, offer options, and create a more inclusive and confident teaching experience. Episode Highlights: Mixed-level classes are the norm and should be approached with that mindset The distinction between mixed-level and all-level classes The importance of shifting from sequence-focused to student-focused teaching Building sequences that include a variety of pose categories Why full-body sequencing works better than peak pose sequencing in mixed classes Including standing poses, balances, backbends, twists, seated, supine, and inversions Using progression and regression options for every pose Maintaining a middle path that supports both beginners and experienced students Why themed sequencing is more effective than peak pose sequencing The importance of developing strong pose literacy Offering benefit-based alternatives when poses are not accessible Setting expectations at the beginning of class to normalize options and autonomy Encouraging students to move at their own pace and take ownership of their practice Using props as an essential teaching tool for accessibility and adaptability How mixed-level classes can build trust, community, and long-term student engagement Restorative Yoga Teacher Training Online Join our mailing list Find all the resources mentioned in this episode Follow Let's Talk Yoga on Instagram Connect with Aru on Instagram Subscribe to Aham Yoga on YouTube Let’s Talk Yoga Podcast on YouTube Leave us a review and share this podcast with your friends!
