Approaching Corporations For Teaching Opportunities.

A great way to expand your teaching opportunities is to contact the human resources directors at corporations and offer to teach a free “lunch and learn” Yoga seminar/demonstration. You can start small and build a base of students who buy monthly packages for a discount with “drop ins” paying more. The corporation furnishes the room and you offer a discount to the employees. A commitment of twice a week yields the best results.
