How to start an online yoga business – FAQ
How can I create an online yoga business?
You can create an online yoga studio by setting up a membership site using a platform like MemberSpace. This allows you to have a central hub for your yoga classes, schedule live streams, upload prerecorded videos, and more. With MemberSpace, you can offer subscription tiers so students can access various class packages.
What equipment do I need to teach yoga online?
The yoga equipment you’ll need includes a mat, blocks, straps, and a computer or mobile device with a webcam and microphone. To enhance the video quality, consider investing in an HD webcam and external microphone. Proper lighting is also important – natural light works best but you can use ring lights or softboxes.
How do I structure an online yoga class?
Follow the same general flow as an in-person class. Open with a short centering/meditation, warm up with sun salutations, progress through standing and seated poses, cool down with stretches, and close with savasana. Keep cues clear and concise. Use verbal and visual cues to demonstrate proper alignment. Modify poses to suit all levels.
How much should I charge for online yoga classes?
Consider charging $5-20 per class depending on length and whether it’s live or prerecorded. Offer package deals, like $50 for 10 classes. For live streams, charge slightly more than prerecorded videos. Have tiered membership levels, like $20/month for 2 classes/week and $40 for unlimited.
