Yoga on the Ball: This has been around for awhile, but it still can add some excitement to a Yoga class. Whether you use it in a workshop, or to break up a class, the stability ball can put some life into a class.
However, not everyone will like it, especially those
students who have difficulty just sitting on one of these balls. Make sure anyone who is unsteady is made aware of the hazards. It is best for some to practice near a wall, or in the corner, for stability. In this case, the wall is a secondary prop. Suzanne Deason has some interesting information on using the ?Balance Ball? as a prop, in DVD format.
Family Yoga: This is a great concept for most families, but it is worth noting that this type of class can attract some parents who desire to be in control of every aspect of their child's life. This type of parent will be easily noticed from the start, when he or she corrects their son's or daughter's every move.
Therefore, it is best to establish who will do the cueing, assisting, and correcting. One unchecked parent can ruin the entire class. Kids acting like kids are understandable, but when parents act like kids, it is time to put your diplomatic skills to the test. That's why it would be wise to have guidelines in place.
Partner Yoga for Singles: My wife, Marie, and I taught
classes like these, and they do ?break the ice.?
Helping and assisting someone breaks down all the barriers. This class works better as an occasional workshop.
Laughter Yoga: The first I heard of this was when a friend of mine attended a Laughter Yoga class in Ireland. Some of the Chair Yoga classes I teach have a little humor injected into them. With all the stress people get these days, this is a stress management method that will allow Yoga students to be less serious about everyday situations.
Pet Yoga: This is a nice idea, but this is for friendly and ?house trained? pets, only, unless you teach the class outside. Dog Yoga has been referred to as ?Doga.? This is a great workshop concept, as long as there are no hostile pets present.
Chair Yoga: Most of these classes are held at senior
centers, assisted living complexes, nursing homes, and
physical rehabilitation facilities. It will be hard to
establish a following at most Yoga studios, as this group is less mobile and transportation is a big issue.
