GOT IT!

Hurray!!!...... finally with putting in so many hardwork in my YOGA, I GOT IT!!!! Happy, Happy!....... Finally manage to pass the “exam” arranged by PA and become one of their members as a trainer now. Hehe.

During mid Jan this year, my friends and I (total 3 of us) went for the “exam” arranged by PA. Actually, it was an interview plus demo. They wanted us to stimulate it as the 1st session of the class and what will you do? How you introduce yoga to the class? What is the Do’s and Don’ts? What are the yoga poses you teach? What are the benefits and limitations? and..... and etc.

It was quite siong...... kept talking and doing demo at the same time. Then the classroom was so empty, just only 2 interviewers and me. It can make you very nervous. One of the interviewer is PA experience trainer, she look so stern to me. Hehe….. made me more nervous lor..... ended up talk also cannot talk properly. Even my brain turned blank at certain time. Hahaha...... So I can say I have no confidence to pass this “exam”.

2 weeks later, 2 of my friends received letter by post from PA and they didn’t make it. I am the only one didn’t receive the “bad” news.….. so I cross my fingers lor..... Then about last week, my teacher checked with PA and they told her I “passed”. They are processing the letter for me.

So until yesterday, I finally get the letter. Haha! I am very surprise to pass this “exam”! You know why? Because as mentioned earlier, I have no confident and the worst thing is my teacher do not have confident on me too..... haha...... The other 2 friends are also my teacher students. They learnt yoga a few years earlier then me. Furthermore, beside Cert. in Yoga Instructors’, they also have cert in Yoga Therapy. So my teacher asked me to buck up, study more in anatomy. Ended up, 我这匹冷马跑赢..... Anybody win money? Who bet me win? Hahaha......

According to PA, why I got it is because I teached slowly...... explained each posture slowly and not too rush. Actually, that day I was so nervous until don’t know how to talk..... haha..... inorder to clam myself down, I talked very slowly. This is to enable me to have amber time to think...... Haha...... I paused one after another movement, because my brain is generating what should I teach or say next. Haha...... This became a benefits to me! Hahaha......

My new class starting very soon...... but don’t know in time to change it from my teacher name to my name or not.

My teacher, Irene, she was so kind. She holds a class at Yio Chu Kang CC under her name. This class was given by one of my Yogadance classmate. He is taking a night class on every Wednesday, so he had no choice but give it up. So when Irene knew it, she quickly asked him to give her this class.

Hehe...... Thanks a lot! Irene and Michael. You are my 贵人!

Dear friends who did not manage to get it, don’t be disappointed. I still believe your gals are still better then me. Is just the interviewer expectation is abit different from the commercial market. 加油!加油!加油!Keep it up!
