Ever looked out during a yoga class and thought, “Why do my students look so disengaged? They must be hating this!” Good news: those blank faces are often a sign of deep connection—not disinterest.
Let's have a frank conversation about the often misunderstood signals yoga teachers receive from their students during class. You'll hear why blank expressions, furrowed brows, and even sleepy faces could be indicators of a truly engaged, introspective practice—signs that you are doing your job right.
I'll help you embrace the quiet, counterintuitive signs of a successful yoga class, freeing yourself from the need to entertain or seek outward validation. Learn to recognize that true connection in yoga is often subtle and inward.
You’ll hear how:
• Students’ expressions in yoga often don’t reflect disengagement; they signal deep personal connection.
• In yoga, unlike in academic or high-intensity fitness classes, students don’t need to actively respond or engage with the instructor.
• Quiet faces, even sleepy ones, often mean students are having an inward experience, processing their practice.
• Focusing on your students’ journey rather than outward engagement frees you from the need to entertain and reinforces your role as a guide rather than the center of attention.
