Pranayama Series #2: 5 Mistakes Yoga Teachers Make When Teaching Pranayama

Pranayama Series #2: 5 Mistakes Yoga Teachers Make When Teaching Pranayama

Teaching pranayama and breathwork can feel overwhelming—even for experienced yoga teachers. In this episode, Jason breaks down the five most common mistakes teachers make when teaching pranayama and offers simple, research-backed solutions that will help you guide breathwork with clarity, confidence, and impact.


Whether you’re just starting out or refining your skills, this episode will help you simplify your approach to pranayama, avoid common pitfalls, and create a more meaningful experience for your students.


🎯 In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why pranayama is often left out of yoga classes—and why that’s a missed opportunity

• How to avoid overwhelming students with too many breathwork techniques

• Why it’s time to rethink advanced practices like Nadi Shodhana, Bhastrika & Kapalabhati

• The power of simple, functional techniques like Box Breathing and 5.5 Breathing

• How consistent breath ratios improve nervous system regulation, HRV, and CO₂ tolerance

• How to use accessible, effective language when teaching pranayama

• Why functional breathwork is more important than flashy techniques


✨ Registration is open for Jason's training, Teaching Pranayama & Breathwork! Open to both yoga teachers and students. For more info, click here: jasonyoga.com/breathwork
