How Yoga Teachers Can Use Intention Clips to Enhance Their Classes and Practice

As a yoga teacher, you understand that yoga is a powerful mind-body practice, and setting an intention at the start of class is key to helping students connect with their breath, deepen their practice, and stay present. Intention Clips can enhance this process by providing a physical, visual reminder of each student’s chosen intention, making their practice even more focused and impactful.

1. Set Intentions and Stay Focused

Start class by offering each student a clip with an intention that resonates with them. Encourage them to attach the clip to their mat and use it as a reminder to stay present throughout the flow. Throughout the practice, a quick glance at the clip can help refocus their mind, guiding them back to their breath and intention, especially during transitions or more challenging moments.

2. Perfect for Restorative and Relaxation Poses

For slower or restorative practices, such as savasana, suggest that students focus on their intention by looking at their clip as they relax and practice deep breathing. This simple action enhances the sense of calm and helps settle the mind towards meditation.

3. Creating a Positive, Supportive Environment

Intention Clips ffer more than just physical reminders; they help cultivate a positive, intentional mindset in your students. By encouraging focus on their chosen intention, you guide them toward greater self-awareness and a deeper connection to their practice — both on and off the mat.
