Teaching Yoga in a Second Language with Annie Dunhof

This week on the podcast I am joined by Annie Dunhof. Annie is the founder of Enga Unite, English teacher, yoga teacher and teacher trainer for yogis who want to build an international career in the world of yoga and wellness. At Enga, she helps non-native English speaking yoga teachers build confidence, find their voice, develop language, communication, teaching and business skills to build a solid foundation for a sustainable and long-lasting career. It’s her mission to help multilingual yogis fill the gaps in skills, knowledge, and experience by providing continuing education and help overcome the obstacles that hold them back from thriving in the career that they most desire. In this episode, Annie shares how she blended her passion for English teaching with her passion for yoga to create Enga Unite, how to build confidence and hone your voice as an English second language yoga teacher or as a yoga teacher teaching in any second language, the business lessons Annie's learned through her career, and more.

Enjoy!
