Teaching yoga in a big space with dozens of students can be daunting—how do you connect with everyone and keep the class flowing? In this episode, I share practical strategies for managing large rooms so every student feels included. You’ll learn how to set up your space, move with intention, project your voice, and adapt to challenges without losing your connection to the whole group. These tips will help you feel confident in any teaching setting, whether you’re leading a festival crowd, a sports team, or a packed studio class.

We’ll cover:

• Pre-class space setup for maximum flow and accessibility
• Using voice, movement, and visual cues to connect with the whole room
• Strategies for handling technical issues and distractions
• Creating a sense of intimacy in a large group
• Simple habits to refine your space management skills over time
