27:58 Expanding your teaching career

In this episode, Jason breaks down the most overlooked skill in modern yoga teacher training: learning how to think like an educator instead of teaching one-off classes.

Most 200-hour yoga teacher trainings focus on sequencing individual classes. But students don’t learn in 60-minute increments. They need repetition, structure, continuity, and progressive overload to make real progress.

You’ll learn:

• Why random yoga sequencing leads to student plateaus

• How lack of curriculum causes teacher burnout

• The difference between novelty and skill development

• How to design month-long class arcs

• How to create yoga workshops and special series

• Why this shift improves student retention and career sustainability

If you’re a yoga teacher who wants better student results, stronger retention, and a more sustainable teaching career, this conversation will change how you think about sequencing.
