In this lesson, we explore inherent challenges and pitfalls in teaching a mixed-levels class.
Understand the challenges of teaching students with varying levels of experience, and learn practical strategies for creating inclusive, effective classes for all.
Describe three options for demonstrating variations to a mixed-level class. Give an example of teaching verbiage that implies a hierarchy of value (i.e. you are a better student if you do this variation and a lesser student if you do this one). Provide priorities that can help to effectively teach pose variations to mixed-level students. Describe two ways of effectively teaching pose variations to mixed-level students. Explain why using the word “beginner” with a pose variation may be inappropriate.
