20 classes a week and I still couldn't make ends meet. Have you ever felt like that? You're driving all over trying to make it happen, but the reality is, is that the system is set up in such a way that an individual yoga teacher is never going to make it. I decided to go online and it made all the difference. In the first 3 years that I was online, I made over $357,000. That's a lot different than making $20 a class and driving all over, don't you think? But here's the really cool thing: I helped a lot more people, and I was able to narrow down on what it is that I really enjoyed teaching, which, as you know, if you're teaching in person, you just got to teach to whoever comes in the room.
