Each chapter—like Rise to Joy, Less is More, and Rebel, Yogi! introduces a series of updated themes. Authors Sage Rountree and Alexandra DeSiato offer practical upgrades to the bestselling first volume of Teaching Yoga Beyond the Poses, with new prompts, expanded notes, and thoughtful cues to help you connect with students and center their experiences in class. Each template offers useful guidance on:

  • Expounding on your theme and connecting it to both personal and universal experiences
  • Chants, quotes, mantras, poems, or songs
  • Specific practices that work with your theme
  • Distilling your theme to a short sentence or intention for your class
  • Takeaway ideas and helpful notes

Any of the 54 class themes can be used as-is or molded to embody your own personal teaching style and authentic voice. Each includes insightful options for opening your class, suggestions for what to say during movements and pauses, and helpful ideas for closing out strong. Grounded in the knowledge that yoga philosophy is applicable to our daily lives and its wisdom is for all of us this book offers adaptable and easy-to-use ways to transform your classes, empower your students, and build richer, more meaningful connections by teaching beyond the poses and into the world.
