What’s your personality type and does it affect your approach to teaching, and life?

Struggles I’ve had as an INFP are shying away from conflict and not always being upfront which sometimes means I don’t hold boundaries well.

How much can you actually earn teaching yoga?

I don’t think there is much transparency about money in the yoga world, so I thought I’d share my real numbers from 2024.

Here’s how I made just over £52,000 teaching yoga in 2024. No huge online following. No big brand deals. Just teaching.

Here’s the breakdown:

Studio classes
• 7 classes per week
• ~£45 per class
• 46 teaching weeks
= £14,490

Private sessions
• £115 per session
• ~325 sessions across the year
= about 7 per week

A typical teaching week looked like:

• 7 studio classes
• 7 private sessions

That’s roughly 14 hours of teaching per week.

The big takeaway for me?

Private teaching is what makes the numbers work.

Studio classes are amazing for community and connection, but working one-to-one allows you to tailor sessions to student’s needs and build a sustainable income.

If you’re a yoga teacher building your career, I hope this helps make the path a little clearer. It’s a hustle but for me the real value is doing something I love and that makes difference to people’s lives.

I also think many studios should pay more, in eight years I seen very little pay increase from most studios.

If this was useful, let me know and I’ll share more about how I built my private client base.
