Yoga Teacher Imposter Syndrome: Why You Feel Like a Fraud (And What to Do About It)
Feeling like a fraud at the front of your yoga class? You’re not alone. Imposter syndrome can happen to yoga teachers also!
In this episode, we unpack imposter syndrome for yoga teachers—where it comes from, how it shows up in class, and what to do when the inner critic gets loud. Brea and Ula have an open conversation about self doubt as yoga teachers.
We explore how to stay confident and authentic as a teacher, why “being professional” might be hurting your connection with students, and how to find your voice without faking it.
In this episode:
Imposter syndrome and self-doubt as a yoga teacher
The pressure to be perfect or “professional”
Why yoga teaching can feel feel isolating
Real talk on authenticity vs oversharing
Tools to soften self-judgment and reconnect with your teaching style
