The purpose of this study was to examine the reason of yoga instructors majoring in dance for the vocational choice and their job satisfaction. The subjects in this study were 20 yoga instructors who had majored in dance. Semi-structured questionnaire was used to investigate their reason of vocational choice and job satisfaction. The findings of the study were as follows:
The above-mentioned findings suggest that many of the dance majors chose the occupation of yoga instructor because of their aptitude or interest, and that in terms of environmental influence, they were heavily affected by whether one of people around them including friends worked as a yoga instructor or not. They were much satisfied with their vocational choice in terms of the reasons for that, but they were still unsatisfied with their pay. It implies that although yoga instructor is one of promising jobs for dance majors, there is much room for improvement in working environments.
