East Lake Family YMCA 

A yoga instructor leads students in the practice of yoga, teaching poses (asanas), breathing techniques (pranayama), and meditation to promote strength, flexibility, balance, and relaxation. They create safe and supportive environments, adapting sessions to suit different skill levels, body types, and goals. In addition to demonstrating proper alignment and technique, yoga instructors educate students on mindfulness, body awareness, and stress reduction. They may specialize in specific styles such as Vinyasa, Hatha, Ashtanga, or restorative yoga. Yoga instructors are responsible for planning classes, ensuring participant safety, and fostering a positive, inclusive atmosphere. Many also provide guidance on lifestyle habits, wellness practices, and injury prevention.
