The best live stream software to start teaching online

Online yoga, fitness, cooking, and other classes are nothing new but have certainly gained in popularity. An in-person class allows you to interact more with students by being able to physically correct them or encourage them individually. However, there are limitations that keep you from scaling a physical class.

The studio often has a maximum capacity or if you are in a large room or area then you need powerful audio equipment in order to amplify your voice to the entire class. Along with a physical space also comes costs like lighting, air-conditioning, decorations, and other overhead. It also requires attendees to live in your area or travel to a destination for the class.

“By moving your class online, you break down the barriers that come with traditional in-person teachings. You can reach a larger, wider audience. Students from all over the world can enjoy your teachings.”

Increase your class size, revenue, & profit

No limitations

While in the past, four walls, or more depending on the shape of your studio or venue, limited the number of people that could attend your class, streaming online eliminates all bounds. You could even stream your class from the top of a mountain! Anywhere you can get a stable internet connection you can live stream a class. This could allow you to think outside the box, or room, and host in a beautiful zen garden or at an empty aquarium. The only limitations are your creativity and connectivity.

Less overhead

In addition, the overhead cost of electricity, building maintenance, and the fancy espresso machine by the reception desk can add to the overall price tag of hosting a class live. With live streaming, all of that disappears. No longer are you limited by the size of the room or bogged down by expensive decorations and lighting.
