What do you like best?

I couldn't believe how many options this program had. I've been teaching yoga for nearly a decade now, and I have to say I come up with some pretty in depth and specific sequences. I was really impressed of how easy it was to customize the notes on this site, and even add my own images and poses. I think, for a newer instructor still building their wheelhouse of poses and sequences, this is a great too - because you can see everything visually, and even view and borrow other instructors sequences if you are looking for inspiration.

What do you dislike?

I don't dislike anything. It's a great program. I was say that personally, I tend to create my sequences while I am doing a home practice, and so I prefer to have a notebook by my side and jot down things this way. Although I had a great experience using this software, I reverted back to my old paper and pen. It's one of the few times I actually write (as opposed to type), and I prefer it this way. I'm not currently using it for this reason, but as someone who mentors new instructors, I would definitely suggest this program to others!

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Check out the 15 day free trial offer while it's still available! You do need to enter a credit card, but it's very easy to cancel your subscription (just do so within the 15 days). Try planning a class or two and browse the HUGE library of class plans available from other instructors. It is a great way to decide if this is something that would be useful to you.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

As a yoga teacher, I believe it is important to provide some predicability in your sequences, as well as variety to challenge and spark the mind and body. YogaClassPlan.com allows for just that. Also, even though you shouldn't ever be staring at a paper while you are instructing, I love that YogaClassPlan.com allows you to print out your class plan so you can review it before class, or add your own notes after practicing or teaching the sequence. You can even go back and edit it on the site based on your notes. I feel like they have thought of everything, and I can't say enough good things about this product.
