I JUST posted to a similar thread! I’ll post it here for you too.
Teaching beginners is such an important task. As an instructor you have the privilege of guiding them in developing their technique, love for pole and their body! If a pole dancers starts off with strong fundamentals both of you will be far more successful.
I don’t feel teaching is something where you can just take a few hour, or day, class and be ready! Some people are natural teachers and this would be enough to get them started, however, not everyone who wants to teach has that natural ability. This doesn’t mean they shouldn’t, but that it will take time and experience to become a qualified instructor. Having a guideline to refer to is a great option for new teachers.
I’ve had many, members write to tell me how they’ve used the lessons here as their guideline for teaching in studio. Most of them have taken the popular certifications and only gained a piece of paper to hang on their studio wall. Unfortunate but true. I think more than a quick certification, people need a guideline to follow.
I MORE than welcome studios and instructors to use my method and lessons to help their students. 🙂
Keep in mind the lessons are not “how to open a studio” but a guide for teaching. 🙂

I love your attitude / perspective on this topic, Veena. You are a generous teacher and I honor that about you. 🙂

What veena said times a million. It may be helpful to shadow one (or more!) of you’re favorite instructors to see how they teach different classes and different levels of pole. This can be helpful not only for learning how to teach a group class, but (possibly) more importantly you can see how the instructor communicates things to different kinds of people. Everyone learns differently and a good teacher knows how to adapt and communicate, seeing that in practice can be infinitely more valuable than any certification. Being in this setting can also help you get an idea if teaching is the right fit for you.

Thanks veena, your video giving me more idea how to perform in the proper and actual way that I just found out recently.
Am very happy and confident back to pole again since I have learn inappropriate way hurting my body before.
