Is it permissible to keep my phone close during the practicum for music and time-tracking purposes?

Support Team Updated by Support Team

Certainly! It's perfectly fine to keep your phone close during the practicum for music and time management purposes.

However, try to ensure the phone remains out of the video's view to minimize potential distractions for both you and the evaluator. Also, make sure your phone is on silent mode, not just on vibrate, while recording.

You might also consider using an inconspicuous clock to track time or use another device with a remote for playing music. If you possess a smartwatch capable of controlling music and connecting via Bluetooth to a speaker, that might be an efficient solution too.

It's worth noting that as you venture into teaching, some yoga studios might discourage the presence of phones within the practice space. Leading by example, you may decide to adopt alternate methods for timekeeping and music in these environments.

How did we do?

How crucial is it for the teacher to showcase impeccable alignment in the practicum video?

Am I required to select one of the Pranayamas, Meditations, Mantras, and Mudras from the program for my practicum, or can I incorporate alternative ones?
