    Thanks for these tips, Brett!! I started my Yoga for Climbers CZcams channel during lockdown and today it reached 2k subscribers in 6 months 😭💚 What also helped me to spread the word about my classes is to learn more about how the CZcams algorithm works (keywords, tags, description, title etc) - so if you are a new channel reading this comment, make sure to research more about that! and best of luck in sharing yoga with the world!

    Since the Covid lock down I've been publishing once video a week for 3 months. Using CZcams to learn how to edit, film and I've been avoiding doing this for YEARS. But I am very happy I took the leap of faith to give it a try. The first two months I used my I-phone. Using the flip screen option the camera will film for as long as you want . I've got over 50 min. of content at once but without the flip screen it will shut off around 15-17 minutes. Good luck everyone let's support each other. 🙏

    Hi from Adelaide, Australia, Brett. I'm James, half of the team at Jen Kokoska Yoga. Jen has a face-to-face yoga business, focusing on students with chronic pain, anxiety, and depression due to her first-hand experience of living with degenerative arthritis. She's adapted her yoga to help manage her pain and the pain of her students. Due to COVID-19 restrictions stopping her face-to-face classes, she reluctantly pivoted online, teaching first on Zoom and then migrating to CZcams. Since we started with online teaching about a month ago, we've created at least 30 videos. My current role is to balance my full-time day job, with being a family man, keeping fit and learning and quickly applying technical and CZcams best practices. Our videos are definitely improving, especially when we apply knowledge from experienced practitioners such as yourself, Brett. Jen and I love working together and love the creative journey and progression here on CZcams. Thank you for the great tips, Brett. Wishing you and yours many blessings and continued prosperity. Kind regards, James (and Jen) :)

    Hi, I'm just starting. I am a wellness coach who had sciatica and overcame it by stretching and using breathing to relax the muscles and open the fascia to get pain free. This of coarse opens up the maintenance of our bodies through the stretching and breathing. So I want to start my own Stretch and Breathe Studio to highlight how to properly and safely stretch using breathwork to really empower my students.

    I just finished your 200hr YTT and am trying to make a video. I invested in a tripod and a lavalier wireless mic system but this is such a learning curve for me !! Trying to figure out the mic situation was hard enough, it still seems to pick up some background noise but you're so amazing in making these videos to help us!! Thank you so much!!

  • @stephaniedurso4750
    @stephaniedurso4750 Před 2 lety

    Thank you for your very informative tips! I have been teaching yoga for many years, but I have been procrastinating about starting up a youtube channel because of the lack of technical experience, but your videos make it seem very doable - even for me! It’s time to step out of my fear & figure out my audience niche. I have a tendency to teach 60-90 minute classes when I am live or on Zoom. So I want to record short videos (like you suggested in one of your tutorials) so that I can keep my audience coming back. Thank you for all this information and giving me the confidence to know that I don’t need a huge investment to begin! you are amazing! Thank you so much!

Jen (my wife, and the yoga teacher) and I have only been uploading a bulk of our content in the past month, due to COVID-19 stopping the face-to-face aspects/classes of her yoga business. It's a fun journey so far, learning how to CZcams. Again, all the best with your journey. Take care and stay healthy, James and Jen.

    This was so helpful Brett! I didn’t know you had a CZcams until just now 😍 I believe it was on the Sivana Podcast a while ago I came across your teachings. Thank you for this. I just started a CZcams channel and website called So it Flows. Thankful for all of the information! Much love to you!

    Hey, Brett - Todd here from HeevanleeTai chi and yoga-based in London England. I have recently started filming my infinite tai chi, meditation, and yoga classes with a background in Budokon and the Yogic arts as well as traditional 500 hour Yoga alliance and British Wheel of Yoga accreditations. I am experimenting with camera placement and understand we have 2 main positions for shooting - seated and standing. With the seated position I have the camera roughly 7ft away with 1.4 aperture extra-wide sigma lens and 12 ft away for the standing postures. I set both of these positions with a microphone stand for both heights of reach when seated and height arm's length when standing. From my filming experience, I then tape the ground for the camera locations so it is easy to set up again and again. I run a Rhode lavalier microphone on the lapel and also have a Rhode video mic pro + which is good when I am not far away from the camera but can pick up external noise more easily than Rhode lavalier wireless go. What lens length / aperture and distance are you using for both positions?

    Hi Brett
    Thanks so much you’ve been part of my yoga journey for over 2 years now and I admire your style and classes 🙏🏽 🥰 I have a 500 hrs YTT in my pocket and first of all practicing for myself to get ready to teach but I think it’s time to start teaching soon and your video reaches me in a perfect timing to learn more about shooting yoga videos 😊 Very happy to have found your content you are doing amazing and super professional work I love it ❤️

    Brett, I am a long time yoga teacher and have been doing 1:1 virtual sessions for the past year+. A few times I have entertained the idea of a CZcams channel and am back into the exploration once again. I want to take the leap. This video is very helpful. I am interested in more information about your courses, please send that along to me! Thank you!

  • @ForeverYogawithSusannah

    Great tips! I've been working on my yoga CZcams channel for almost 2 years, a labor of love! It is harder than it looks to do this by yourself with limited funds and experience. I found that to be the most challenging aspect of the process so I pay a talented college student to edit my videos and make my thumbnails. It's nice to have someone on my team. To anyone new to making videos: your iphone will totally do the job if you don't have a camera, but, as Brett mentioned, absolutely invest in a lavalier mic. I use Rodes Film maker kit wireless.

    Sooo helpful like each other videos Brett, thanks! I am facing problem of filming vertical videos. So when I upload them on my channel it has black paddings on both sides. Please help me.

    I truly appreciate the tips! Especially recording the audio separately or using a wireless microphone. So when you use the wireless mic are you still recording separately on an iPhone or something of the sort?

    This was super helpful!! Do you have any tips for if your lav microphone makes rustling sounds (for example, when my lav is on my shirt and I lift my arms, the mic picks up that sound).
    I’m still learning for sure 💙

    Thank you for this! Trying to uplevel my recordings and this is very helpful. If you're recording on your phone what is the best way to record the audio without doing a voice over? If you record to a nano, how do you then sync it to the video? Thanks!

    Hi Brett - thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. What kind of microphone do you recommend using with the iPod nano?

    Brett, this is brilliant. I love your tips about framing. I am in a small space (3x3 meters). I will be standing and sitting in a chair. I'm a bit perplexed about the best lens to purchase for my Sony ZV-E10. What lens do you use? Secondly, how are you lighting based on the fact you are seated in front of a window? Your video is incredible.
