Is Office Yoga Teacher Training Right for You?
Thinking about diving into Office Yoga Teacher Training but not sure if it’s the right fit? Let’s break it down to see if this transformative program is calling your name. (Spoiler: If you’ve read this far, it probably is!). Here are 5 common reasons students join our program.
1. You Want to Expand Your Teaching Horizons
Auditioning for a prime teaching time at a yoga studio can feel like competing in a popularity contest. I remember yoga studios looking at our Instagram pages to see how many followers we had. Brenda Walton was a Partner at a CPA firm before retiring and joining the training. If you’re ready to take your teaching out of the studio and into the corner office, this program is your golden ticket. Office Yoga is where mindfulness meets the nine-to-five grind, and this training gives you all the tools to shine in the corporate world.
Pro Tip: Companies don’t look at your social media pages before shelling out big bucks for wellness programs. Stick to the core of yoga and be the teacher they brag about at the water cooler.
2. You Love Creating Tailored Experiences
Office yoga isn’t just about sun salutations; it’s about meeting employees where they are—whether hunched over a desk or mentally checked out from Zoom meetings. I had a student in a forward bend, reaching for his toes with no yoga strap in sight. I went over and grabbed a USB cable close by, and handed it to him. Teaching in a corporate setting inspires creative thinking and requires us to be present and innovative with our space. This training is your jam if you thrive on crafting unique classes for diverse groups.
Pro Tip: Desk stretches and chair yoga are your new besties. Bonus points if you can make downward dog doable in a pencil skirt.
3. You’re Ready to Grow Your Income
Let’s be honest—living off studio classes can feel like chasing savasana that never comes. Corporate yoga is a game-changer, with higher rates, steady gigs, and long-term contracts. You’ll have Request for Proposal (RFP), Statement of Work (SOW), Marketing Flyers, and Annual Contract templates at your fingertips. One student booked a 30-minute meditation for $300 three weeks after graduating. Not only did she get paid her worth, but her session was so good they wanted her back. This training will show you how to price, pitch, and package your services like the boss you are.
Pro Tip: Corporate clients pay $150-$350 per session (sometimes more). That’s a lot of lattes.
4. You Value Work-Life Balance
Corporate yoga typically happens during office hours, leaving your evenings and weekends blissfully free. You can stack your schedule, teaching a 3 PM corporate class and an evening studio session. If you’re tired of sacrificing your zen for early morning or weekend studio classes, this could be your ticket to harmony.
Pro Tip: You’ll be saying goodbye to early morning studio classes and waking up without having to set an alarm. Zen achieved.
5. You’re Passionate About Making a Difference Through Office Yoga Teacher Training
This isn’t just about poses—it’s about changing the world through conscious leadership and ethical business practices. Of course, we’re helping stressed-out professionals find their center (and maybe stop sending emails at midnight). Still, we’re also learning to incorporate principles like ahimsa in the corporate world. If you’re all about using yoga to change people’s lives and the planet, corporate yoga is where you’ll make a real impact.
Pro Tip: Your classes won’t just transform their workdays—they’ll transform how they work. Go you.
If any (or all) of these resonate, it’s time to take the plunge! Office Yoga Teacher Training gives you the skills, confidence, and community to crush it in the corporate yoga space.
