GUESS WHAT??
I went to yoga with Paul last night, and it was pretty okay. But before that, I managed to finally introduce myself to the owner of that studio. I told her I was interested in getting on her substitute list, and that I taught vinyasa and was interested in doing classes themed to powerful music. She had a schedule in front of her that she was working on changing for December, and she actually started to look for spots for me to start a new class. I noticed that the first class on Sundays was at 10:00, and mentioned that the 8:00 classes on Sundays at one of the other studios in town was always packed. We chitchatted a little about it, and she asked me if I wanted to give it a try teaching at that time at the beginning of December!
A regular class, a regular time slot!
I’ve heard from other teachers that the owner can be a little…scattered, so I’m not 100% sure it’s going to work out so soon, so perfectly, but IF IT DOES…oh, my goodness, I’m so incredibly excited! Getting a turnout like the 8 AM Prana class does would be a major coup for someone as inexperienced as I am.
BF and I went out to dinner at the Mexican place to celebrate, and I had delicious nummy chimichangas. (I can go back to tofu tomorrow.) All in all, a good evening.
This was an early night for me, which is why this post is so short.
I’m so pleased!!

WooHOOOOOOO!! Congratulations!
If it IS packed, do you get a flat fee, or a cut per student?
Thanks! Cut per student is generally the way teachers are paid, as far as I know. This can be a very bad thing in a town like mine where classes don’t generally get much larger than 8 or 9 people. …EXCEPT ON THE WEEKEND, when they DO.
