Is yoga teacher a steady job? Can I retire?
Yoga teachers can be divided into part-time and full-time teachers. Part-time teachers may have other jobs, teaching classes in their spare time, or teaching yoga classes in different gyms and gyms. Full-time is only to work in a yoga studio, it all depends on your own wishes, whether you are willing to transfer yoga into your career, career is a career, there is a stable income, more or less depends on specific expertise.
Yoga professors can be in their 70s, and the oldest yoga teacher is in his 70s, so your attitude towards yoga determines whether you want to be a yoga teacher or not.
Hello, first of all, the current retirement age is 55 for women and 60 for men. If, as the subject said, stick to being a yoga teacher until you retire. Really dedicated, but the unit can insist on social security until your retirement age. Of course this is fine. So no matter what career you are engaged in, as long as you like it, you can. But if you want to stay in your industry until the retirement age, the premise is that the unit must buy five insurance policies for you in that one or two years of work. Only in this way can we have protection when we retire. Thank you.
Thank you for inviting me. Yes.
I used to be a full-time yoga teacher. The life of a yoga instructor is easy, simple, and makes people better from the inside. Of course, I am not a person with great pursuits. I have been a yoga instructor for six years, and then I get married and have children. Taking care of children alone reduces my personal time. When I have time, I will return to yoga.
And yoga teachers will not be eliminated because of old age, adhere to yoga, you will always be an elegant and interesting woman, physical temperament will be better and better, but will win more friends.
Love life love yoga, I am little love ♥ welcome to follow
This question goes to the bottom of your soul, indicating that you are also looking for stability.
Personally, I think yoga can be practiced for a lifetime, but not for a lifetime.
First of all, as we all know, yoga teachers in class are more gas-consuming and exhausting, because yoga people are very sincere, they must love yoga, and they can only get a good reputation by paying unreservedly to their members. In this industry, it is possible to take root and sprout and prosper, especially in today's society, members and librarians have higher and higher requirements for teachers, yoga teachers have to do full-time performance, and it is not so easy and comfortable. Many teachers can't find a good job because they can't do a good job.
In addition, when women reach a certain age to get married and have children, they will be held back by family chores, and young yoga teachers will definitely not be able to compete with little girls in terms of physical strength and state, unless you put in a lot of time, energy and financial resources. Becoming a yoga instructor and doing teaching and training is different. In addition, yoga teachers in small cities are really relaxed, otherwise, it should be no problem for a lifetime. If you want to continue to do it in big cities, there is a lot of competition, then you have to continue to pay a lot in this industry. of course, there are some chain yoga studios that can be considered to join. Such yoga studios have a large scale and a stable source of customers. There are many benefits, as well as internal learning promotion, which will be a long career for teachers.
In addition, we must choose a good direction for the development of yoga and specialize in shaping or physiotherapy, but we must have one of our own most professional skills, and we are not afraid of not having a job. at present, yoga physiotherapists are more popular. I recommend you to understand Qiu Yuan physiotherapy, as well as pregnancy and birth are more popular at the moment.
Finally, I think the society is ever-changing, and many people want to be stable in an industry for a long time, so you should work hard in this direction. As long as you pay enough enthusiasm and persistence, there is nothing wrong with it.
Let's give a complete account of the yoga teacher's living situation, income level, physical condition and mental state.
1 living condition
Yoga teachers are divided into two types, the first, there are a variety of sources of income, yoga is only part-time, do not earn a living from class fees. The second is a full-time yoga teacher, whose livelihood depends entirely on class fees.
For the second kind of teachers, the pressure of life and survival has to be considered.
We all know that practicing yoga can improve energy, but teachers need to demonstrate asanas, explain the essentials, observe students and correct movements in class.
While exercising while talking, very depleted, plus the spirit has to be scattered everywhere, after a class, the physical wear and tear is quite large.
If you maintain the workload of two or three classes a day, there will be a significant decline in physique and vitality after a year or two.
For the convenience of most of the students who go to work, yoga classes are generally arranged at noon and evening, during the meal time, which gives rise to a problem. Teachers can not have a fixed meal, and the scheduling of classes should first take care of the needs of the students and the schedule of the yoga studio.
Eating can not be fixed, siesta is not there, dedicated work makes the brain run at a high speed, even if there is some time to squint after class, but the brain over and over again the scene of the class, can not sleep.
2 mental state
If the yoga studio does not require teachers to provide sales results, the work can be said to be pleasant and comfortable.
But the premise is enough professional accumulation and class level. The yoga studio is not a layman, and the students are not rookies. Everyone knows whether the teacher in front of us is worth the time and money to follow.
Even if the students are average, it does not prevent them from accurately judging the quality level of a teacher.
Without professional accumulation and knowledge reserve, students will vote with their feet to leave, or even directly question you and complain about you. Yoga studios will also reduce your classes, when you are denied, income is decreasing, there is no good mood, only frustration and wavering.
Therefore, the future of the teachers coming out of the crash course is limited, and if they want to go on, they must keep studying. Yoga training courses have always been expensive. A two-or three-day course costs thousands of yuan, and yoga teachers are not well-off. Many people take part in the study by swiping credit cards to pay by installments or borrow money from relatives and friends.
3 income situation
Not optimistic! Leaving aside the top of the pyramid, the main body of yoga teachers are generally active in first -, second-and third-tier cities, in yoga studios, gyms, or special yoga classes for enterprises and institutions. The income is calculated on the basis of class hours, ranging from 80 yuan to 300 yuan, of which 80-120 yuan is the most common.
According to normal physical fitness and time estimation, you can schedule 2-3 classes a day and have a day off on weekends. It doesn't look low. But the problem is instability.
In general, there are rules in the library that classes will not be held for less than 3 students. From time to time, the number of students is insufficient and the courses are temporarily cancelled. Classes in enterprises and institutions are often suspended because of meetings, funds, overtime, occupied space and other reasons, which makes it difficult for yoga teachers to estimate their income this month and to stabilize their income.
To make matters worse, the checkout of some yoga studios and enterprises and institutions is delayed, and the class fee is delayed for several months, which often makes yoga teachers unable to get paid in time and lead a poor life.
In order to hedge against this possible risk, the only means that can be taken is to run more, arrange more classes, sink the owner and the West. But in this way, running is more tired, physical attrition is greatly increased, and time is further fragmented and confused, so it is difficult to have enough time to arrange your life.
In short, this business can be done at any time, but you should collect all the information and think it over before coming back.
Doctors are also divided into departments, but yoga teachers need 360 degrees to learn all aspects of knowledge, human anatomy, basic imaging, exercise physiology, yoga philosophy, psychology …
Pay big investment, material gain is small, if you are in order to make money into the industry, this performance-to-price ratio is too low. It is only with real, persistent concentration and love that it is worthwhile to enter the profession.
