There are several reasons why you should consider offering hybrid classes to your members. Hybrid classes will allow a lot of flexibility and convenience to your members and your instructors.

Offering classes virtually and on-site can help retain already existing clients and attract new ones who prefer to practise in both ways. 

People from different cities, states or even countries will have an opportunity to enrol to your classes increasing revenue streams for the studio. The studio will get international recognition and bring in brand awareness. People from all across the world will have access to the platform, giving them an opportunity to practise when and where they want.

Yoga for mental health: A better wellbeing

It is one of the powerful and easily accessible approaches to treating the growing mental health challenges these days. These practices will incorporate physical movement, mindfulness, stress reduction and emotional balance to the overall wellbeing.

Including mental health focused yoga classes will not only bring a larger audience, but also contribute to the development of better and more knowledgeable instructors. 

Aerial Yoga: The mind and body interaction

Including Aerial yoga for the re-entry can drive interest, aid in studio recovery, create a buzz and set an appeal to new markets. The practice promotes mental well-being by relieving stress and contributes towards physical fitness, enhancing flexibility, strength and balance through gravity defying poses. 

Yoga for kids: Nurturing young yogi souls

A yoga studio should include yoga for kids for the re-entry plan as offering kids yoga can draw a much larger audience tapping into the new demographic of parents looking for health and wellness activities for their children. This can also help the studio create long term devoted customers by establishing a pleasant early experience with yoga. Furthermore, including such a service can help the studio expand its services, increase revenue sources and improve the physical and emotional wellbeing of young practitioners and their families.

Harmonise the soul: Embrace Sounds baths and Vibrational healing

Including sound baths and vibrational healing for the yoga studio´s reentry can be a great opportunity to offer benefits to the already existing and the new client base.
It is a practice that involves an experience where you are immersed in deep sound vibrations which also includes using therapeutic singing bowls placed on the body to create tones and vibrations. Sound baths can help the practitioners enter a meditative state to feel calm and relaxed. It encourages deeper spiritual connections that are a renewal to mental health and emotional discharge. 

Surrender to Yoga Nidra: Experience balance and clarity

For various reasons, it is considerable for a yoga studio to include Yoga Nidra to its reintegration strategy. Yoga Nidra, commonly known as the yogic sleep, is a calming practice that promotes relaxation while lowering stress and boosting mental well being. It is also suitable for a wide spectrum of people including a beginner and those with physical difficulties and improves sleep quality. This way the studio can help promote creativity, attention and productivity and create a balance and clarity in the lives of its practitioners. 

Let others get inspired: Start the journey of yoga teacher training

As the majority of the people are moving towards fitness, they are in a lookout for support and expert guidance on their yoga practices. It can help the studio by nurturing talented instructors, making sure that the teachers are well-equipped to the latest teaching methods.

It can also empower the existing instructors with advanced knowledge and teaching skills enabling them to deliver high quality classes.

Break the boundaries: An adventure with yoga challenges

The fusion of Yoga with Pilates or HIIT or cross training are some of the challenges and fusions to consider for the reentry. This may also appeal to a larger range of fitness enthusiasts. 

This fusion will help the studio to cater to different interests and fitness levels, expanding the reach of the studio.

Embrace and nurture two souls: Yoga for pregnant women
