Traditionally in this direction leading to India, where you can open up entirely new facets of yoga, as well as the USA, where the popularity of this art in recent years, without exaggeration, surpasses.

Nanite to recruit his own students. If you have the opportunity to work or practice in any club, it's too bad. But still much better that people walked purposefully towards you. Create a business card in the Internet, promote their services in social networks, record videos with asanas and bundles and place them on popular video channels. Fight for each client and for the nice reviews about you.
